Issue w/8850 and Multicontroller 7097 connection

Hello,

I just purchased a 7097 second hand from a fellow RC member. I have two 8850 LED lights I need to connect to it but am having an issue with one of the lights. When connected to the 7097, the troublesome light's power supply indicator light blinks on and off. When I disconnect the 5 pin cable, it lights fully and the light goes to my default setting. On the light that doesn't have an issue connecting to the 7097, that power supply indicator light is fully on and I can control it through the 7097. I swapped 5 pin cables and the problems stays with the light/power supply.

What can be done to fix this?

Thanks,
John

It could be an issue with the DIN socket which we could repair, or it could be an issue in the light itself, it has a 2 year warranty, so you know how old the light is?

I purchased one on 4/3/2017 and one on 6/20/2017. Are there identifying numbers on the lights at all?
