CJV150 lost half of my channels

Hey, I had a sudden loss of my left four channels overnight. I have verified that my pump, and capping station are working correctly. Both cleanings and ink fillups are pulling the missing chamnels ink through the head. I can visually see the righ side colors are firing, but nothing from the left ones.

My thought is that it is electrical. I ordered new FCC cables and fuses.

Has anyone else experienced this issue, or have any recommendations?

Thanks
Kevin

I've only seen this happen one other time on a CJV150 and it ended up being the head was fried unfortunately. It was even the left 4 channels that dropped exactly like yours.

Update for future searches. I pulled the head and found out that one of the ink lines was slightly pulled from the damper and had been leaking into the FCC connection/PCB on the head. Fried Head.

Installed a new head and everything working again. Thanks for the input guys.
