We are experiencing random failures with our Arduino Uno with 2 7 Segment Displays with backpacks each.
A typical scenario starts with:
(1) Turn the arduino on and get the word "Play".
(2) We initiate a count down from 30 seconds with a a button.
(3) Count down occurs but the 7 segment goes off completely at various intervals or the 7 segments don't turn on after two cycles, etc, etc.
Basically a lot of random failing. (Sometimes one 7 segment works while the other doesn't.)
Any ideas? Thanks!
