DT-30 doing weird scanning

[juampix]

Hey guys, i was using my laser just fine, and one day it suddenly started doing these weird images, i bought the DT-30 used, installed it, used it for about half a year (only 5hs a week), i leaved the laser without use for about like 3 months and when i want to turn it on, i put quickshow and some beams and i start watching lines instead of dots, i mean, you can see the dots but there's a line through them, and when i do the test pattern here's what i get, i don't know what it can be because i forgot about everything i knew about lasers by no using it for about half a year

Check your cable, especially in reference to pin 25. It looks like it could be a grounding issue.

opened both cable ends, ground cable was desoldered in one end, i don't know how you guys know so much about your lasers haha, thanks so much, will solder it and tell you after if it works.

Been doing this since '96, and I am learning everything as I go… Still learning things every day.
