I got my BitBuilt order a couple days ago. I connected an untrimmed Wii to the screen and it worked just fine. All of a sudden, it is now just flickering about once every second.
I thought that the 9V battery I was using was dead, but replacing it with a different battery that measured 8.2V did nothing. In fact, it seems to be drawing power from the battery rather quickly, as the battery drained by about 0.02V in the 10~15 seconds I had it plugged in. I tried connecting it to the 5V on the Wii itself, but again, it still just flickers. I checked resistance between power and ground, and sometimes it shows no connection, though that may just be me not measuring correctly, because it usually goes to some unpredictable value from 2M-20M Ohms and then quickly decreases until it reaches about 1M Ohm.
Through the flickers I can see that it is receiving video input from the Wii. I haven't done anything to the screen other than unplugging it and plugging it back in. I also haven't done anything to the driver board. The only modification that I've done to the Wii is U10 relocation, though that is tested working, and the problem also occurs with unmodified Wiis and even when not connected to a Wii. Any idea what the problem could be?
