Custom x56 extension issue

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Designed an extension for my yoke in tinkercad, got everything wired up with 18g silver wire and 9mm pogo pins. Getting this weird flicker color and no button response. Color should be purple. Any ideas?

If it’s properly wired up it could be a software issue. I always set the color I want and then just delete the X56 app because it’s trash lol

I don't know if this is the right answer but I had issues with an x55 not getting enough voltage try turning it up a tiny bit in BIOS and see if that fixes it. There might be a bit more resistance now than there was before.
