Why is the Lynx distributor (with Lynx BMS) LED yellow, yet the busbar has power?

Hi,

So I have a Lynx BMS set-up with two distributors. Both distributors are SN:HQ2205xxxxx, so maybe prone to faulty caps resulting in false-positive "fuse blown".

One (Distributor B) is connected to the batteries and seems to be working fine.

The other one (Distributor A), connected to chargers and loads, actually seems to be working fine too, but the LEDs are a mess. First, it was showing false-positive "Fuse Blown" messages in the app and red LED at the monitored fuses. I disabled monitoring; no more messages or red LEDs. Now, the power LED of this distributor is yellow, which should mean "No power on bus bar". But everything, including the connected loads and chargers, seem to be working just fine. I changed back to monitoring the fuses, but I still get only the yellow light and no "Fuse Blown" reports.

When I disconnect the loads/chargers, still only the yellow LED.

Unused distributor ports are bridged with spare fuses, as per manual.

Does anyone has any idea?

Thanks for helping!
Cheers,
Wilbert.
