So I wake up today to one of my G5 radions off. It was flashing red and green. I did a software update and it was saying open circuit? I started multiple times and turned it off and on. I also cleaned the lens and around the fan as I normally do every so often. After about an hour of messing with it finally came back to life for about 5 minutes and I thought it was good. I was wrong and it then blinked a few times and it back to the red and green light on the buttons. Has anyone had this happen before?
 
You have some LEDs failing on that G5. I'm getting more and more of these G5 lately. You know who to call ;)

I have two G5 blue boards with leda that I upgraded to G6. If you want to test.

Hello, I had the same issue not too long ago, but during the warranty period. Contacted EcoTech, sent the defective lights (G5) and they sent me back a new one (G6).
Their customer service was excellent.
