Do you notice any damage on the board? check the front and back for any water ingress. Or if you would like to forward some images over to technical@easygates.co.uk of the front and back of the board, we can take a look for you.

Hi Michael,
Thank you for the offer. I pulled the board out yesterday and found the culprit. A slug had decided to turn itself into a new track, shorting one of the smaller capacitors against an IC chip (to my eyes anyway). Maybe a couple of resistors higher up on the PCB too.
I removed our sadly deceased friend, cleaned the contacts, and refitted to PCB, but the state remained the same.
I'm going to buy a replacement board and an adhesive seal for the control panel box to prevent any more unwanted guests. I'll post an update here once this is done.
Do you know if a new PCB would require any special installation software, or will it be plug and play + manual programming of the gate timings via the built in controller?
Thanks!
