EDIT: hello everyone, I'm totally new to the keeb community and I recently got a duck viper v2 kit, first custom keyboard!
The kit came with an unbuild PCB. I started testing the pcb last night (without soldering and switches), at first everything works fine, the underglow were gorgeous. But after 10 minutes the underglow stopped working. I thought it might be firmware problem, so I flashed the pcb(I tried both QMK and 02D), all keys registered, but the underglow just won’t turn on. Instead, the underglow would flash at the moment when I plug the pcb to my computer, after that they won't turn on.
I know I'm new to customize keymap, I thought maybe I didn’t get the right key for underglow LEDs, so I customized all LED related keys in my layer 1(replacing 1-0) . Still nothing works :/
Have anyone ever encountered anything like this? I’m starting to think maybe I shorted the underglow somehow? But it was a brand new PCB and I only plugged it in 3 times before LEDs failed. hopefully I just missed some steps.
thanks in advance!
