Default Flickering Digitail LED Lights??

I have a set of Digitails (Spaghetti Engineering) LED tail lights and front marker lights installed on my 72 Nova. They worked awsome for the first couple weeks then all of a sudden out the blue they started flickering on and off randomly. Only the brake lights (set to sequential) flicker. It seems to flicker more the higher the RPM. Anyone run into this or know why they may have started this? I was thinking alternator voltage regulator is going out but not really sure.
Thanks,
Brian

Sounds like you have an early set as there was a LED driver issue that could cause that very problem. Give Brian a call at Spaghetti, he will get you dialed in.

Call me or call Brian direct. If it is a processor issue, we will get the faulty board replaced. Double check all you connections first though. I have never heard of a faulty Nova board yet. I have had a few bad Camaro boards.

Well i have been working on it all afternoon. Im pretty sure the boards are not at fault, but im having a hard time figuring this out. It seems like the ground wires at the 2 wire (orange/black) connector may have something to do with it though. When i move them around/push them in it seems to get better, but it wont go away completely. Im really lost with this one.
