Hey Guys (and Girls).
Thought i'd throw my "Intellibrite 5G Color" question on this thread because i know there are already a ton of others problem threads so don't want to create more clutter ... and this seems "active" with some very knowledgeable individuals.
+ there is a reference by "bdavis466" to an "Internal Transformer" which is also my secondary question.
So i have an Intellibrite 12v (model #601011 / 619818Z Light Board). I got it cheap because someone/somehow cut the Main Cord down to only about a foot out of the Housing. Figured i'd splice in a new Main Wire and seal it with a couple layers of adhesive shrink wrap and waterproof connectors.
Anyway, i have almost everything working, even the Board/LED Lights ... except no 12v power out of the two White Wires coming out of the black rubber "plug" in the Housing (light is taken apart).
I'm running 110v to the Intellibrite Color Controller, to a Intermatic 12v Transformer, to 12v through Main Cord and i DO get 12volts out to the Light.
Problem is i do not get anything out of the two White Wires ... no continuity or anything.
Sooooo, again, i saw a reference to an Internal Transformer. It seem like there's a problem inside the housing as current seems to stop at that point.
But if i'm getting it right, "bdavis466" said on a 12v Light, there is no Internal Transformer (which i thought might be the problem).
So now i'm stumped.
Do you see anything incorrect, or can give me advice on why there might be no power out of the White Wires although there IS power at the Housing? .. is there a Transformer on a 12v Light?
What's in that Black Plug in the Housing if anything ... i'm sticking the two Probes from the Multimeter into the two White Wires out of the Housing and assuming i would see 12v, is that correct testing? .. I am also testing while switching the Color Controller as i believe is send "pulses", but i do not see any 12v pulses.
Thx for any direction
