NEW MB IDEA DIODER???Hi there! I’m new on this forum and have a little big problem with my blinkstick pro.

I already got an old IDEA DIODER and bought a BS to made an ambilight for my TV. When I open the DIODER I see the motherboard was not the same that I see in the pictures so I decide to bought a New one DIODER.

Well, open up the New one and…yes…it’s another motherboard that I don’t see in the pictures…can you tell me if with this one it’s like the motherboard that you’ve got in the forum??? R4, R5 and R6?

Posted it to the wrong thread before, so here it is again:

Hey Miguel,

welcome to the forums!
First of all I put your picture in here for a better documentation in the thread.

It seems that IKEA changes the boards periodically. There already is a newer tutorial on blinkstick.com but also this does not fit your board. Maybe you can use it for your case.

It should be the resitstors R8, R6, R4 for you but I´m not absolutely sure in fact I have no such a board to test.

Edit: I could recommend the LED adapter by Agile Innovative. With this adapter you never need to care about different boards again:

Just a suggestion :smile:

I have the same board and it’s compatible with the Blinkstick Pro. You Have to remove R4 (red channel), R6 (green channel) and R8 (blue channel). Weld in the nearest space to the Q’s and connect the ground to CN1. You can see an example in this image:
