Hi there,

Received my kit and got it up and running in no time thanks to the comprehensive instructions. However, once it got "GPS fix" I realised that the top right colon led was permanently lit. I'm assuming that I have a solder bridge or something and most likely it's going to be under one of the seven segment displays. Could you give me an idea where to look?

Regards,
Matt

Sorry, my mistake. After a little digging I realised that the colon LEDs are in parallel, so it would be impossible for one to be lit permanently if they were installed correctly. I had installed one led the wrong way around.

Ah, sorry I didn't spot this in time. I'm glad you figured it out.
