Having a weird issue with a Millet + tread combo I put together.
The tread powers up ok and measures a steady 27.00 VDC on the output, it is fed by a 24VAC transformer.
As soon as the millet is turned on, the transformer is wokring very hard, and the connection to the positive input of the tread gets very hot, even melting solder. For some reason the voltage regulator doesn't get hot though. The transformer got very hot so I didn't think it was a good idea to keep it on long enough to get any other measurements? The LED on the TREAD does decrease in brightness though, so it can't be sustaining 27V.
What should I be checking? It's one of the older Millet boards, I've completed the missing ground connections on IG and OG.
