The sync cable goes into the back of one of the lights. Make sure they are all set on NOR under the slave switch. Then try testing the flash with the button on top of the hot shoe on the camera. They should all fire then. I had issues with this also to begin with and had to "trial and error" it until it worked. I hope this helps.

Buy a new one. When these have anything go wrong, it is cheaper to buy a new one than try and fix. I had problems with the light on mine, and it was not the light, but something in the wiring. I purchased a new one from Amazon. Very happy

Buy another brand! My flash quit on me within weeks after the one year warranty was up. Kodak told me to fix it for about $140.00, or give them back the camera for 15% off a purchase ONLY at their Kodak Store. Looks liek another reviewer had the same issue about 1 year to the day! Sorry I could not be more helpful about the repalcement of the bulb in your inquiry, but you are not alone!

The lights have a built in resistor, this can go bad giving you the exact symptoms you've described. I had the same issue.

Nope that's the norm for these lights! check the fuse by the plug first, go to radioshack for new fuses. i had 2 of these lights that pop'ed and sparks came out I contacted the company, they sent me 2 new light heads opened the box 1 st one worked the 2nd one was dead on arrival it never ends with these! Lol so far I have 2 out of three that haven't given me issues in the last 2-3 months

Make sure you have the load resistors on the front leds also. Without the load resistors it usually only cause a hyperflash not blow the fuse. Just make sure there is not a short on the line. LEDs are great when they work and a headache when they don't. Good luck.

Sounds like a warranty repair to me. I don't recall any fuses on the rear panel. Check the manual. Sorry, looks like a display failure.

I would try looking through the ambx forums. Some users have worked through various issues with these lights and have documented their fixes. Make sure to download the latest software and follow their install instructions. Good Luck!

Make sure everything is connected well, try new batteries, try putting the lighters closer to the camera. Sounds like your hot shoe might be loose or bad. Make sure that bad boy is tight. Make sure the red lights are on, on the units.

No. My lights all work. I think I would send it back and have AAmazon send you another.

I just got one and the fuse blew the first time that ever happened. Does this mean it is defective?

Hello and thank you for this inquiry. To get both lights to fire, you need to have the photocell switch in the on position. If the model light is not working in just one lamp, please try the bulb in the other lamp to determine whether or not the bulb is okay. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance. Thank you and have a great day!

Sorry to tell you, but your fuser is shot. This is the piece that heats up and "glues" the pigment to the paper. This was the issue I had that caused me to diss their support. Hopefully yours is still under warranty and their tech support has gotten better. Good luck!

buy a new unit. for the price of these new if you have a few of the LEDS go out you should just buy a new unit. they are not worth messing with. I have 3 lamps go out on mine after a few hours. they sent me a new one.
