Along with 95% humidity, that's gotta be a bitch Don....
Clarification: The 700 uses 1, 7 pin connector. The 7 pin connector is made up of 1, 3 pin and 2, 2pin connectors as Joe described. If a single 7 pin connector is available I haven't seen it. The 400 board use 3, 3 pin Phoenix connectors. The middle pin is not used on the audio inputs to give extra clearance.
To all: This is my third straight week on the road. Most of which has been in Houston's 100+ degree heat. Thanks for your patience.
Thank you Don and Joe for pointing this out. I have attached the images of the 7 pin Phoenix connects I purchased. You can see the assembly is made up of the three prices as you noted. Gary's board seams that they were not put together as a unit and are independent so to speak. One day that may get sorted.

That's the ones I used. Mouser number...
Gary if Don wants to replace it then I would accept if I was you. A new one will be without any issues and who knows what else may go wrong with the current one, all be it is working properlyDespite rigors of the road, Don e-mailed me this morning offering to swap a new board for my existing one but I see no need at present. Glen, your repair seems pretty solid

Not many people would expect someone to pull all the parts off a board to use on another. It's not good practice and may be where your problem came from. Even if you have to, buy a complete assembly.
I second thatDon, your boards operate as advertised, there are a lot in circulation now. I don't think there's anything wrong with your boards Don, good stuff!!
This is the first failure that I know of. My offer was to replace the board with one that is fully assembled and tested if the old one acted up again. I'd like to determine the root cause, whatever it is. That said, for the most part I subscribe to not fixing things that aren't broken. Changing out a working board opens up the possibility of causing a new problem such as a broken wire on the driver board or whatever goes wrong because stuff happens.
The good thing about selling these boards is I don't depend on it to pay the rent. It pays for a keg (currently Shiner Ruby Redbird) in the kegerator. Actually 2 x 1/6 barrels as I have dual taps. Anyhow, Lee reminded me a few years ago that it's just not worth getting up tight about. I haven't forgotten that.
If the board needs to get swapped out let me know. Patience please. I'm on the road a lot the rest of the year.
Don, Your boards are solid and have a proven track record.
62vauxhall, I agree the amp got beat up in shipping but I would NOT let "the sleeping dog lie". Replacement is quick, cheap and gets a problem off your mind not knowing if it will rear it's ugly head.
And you have to remember, that's not a stock DCP board. If you do replace it with a stock board it will have to be wired like a stock board.
