Default No light on satelite ...G31

My G31 failed to bind after making a tuning adjustment last night.

Setup is 6DXi and 1 satelite, been working for a few years, never crashed.

Now the satelite is not even blinking, Ive checked all the wires, nothing is loose or unplugged.

Is this the end for my Robird or does someone have a suggestion.....

Have you tried moving the satellite to the other Satellite port? Maybe there's a bad connection inside the Robird at that port?

Perhaps the satellite adapter itself may be messed up?

Aside from maybe trying a new satellite, those are the things that might be causing this.

Have you tried rebinding the satellite to a full Rx? Maybe if even just to test to make sure the satellite itself is not the issue.

Have you checked all the connection points with a Multimeter to ensure there is voltage getting to the sat? It could be that the connector pins are not as tight as they used to be, or a wire has vibrated loose at the crimped ends.

Maybe try a new satellite cable from the adapter to the satellite?

Thanks for those suggestions, I have tried half of them,,,
How much voltage should I see going to a sat?

If all else fails on powering a sat, I might try to add a receiver,
... But not sure about esc, throttle, rpm wiring, as this is my ONLY fbl unit and the manual assumes / omits alot.
