I think your talking about one of Jim's modules , and it did turn out to be
a reversed polarity. I had a similar problem a bad timer IC that was
pulling down the supply voltages across the modules powered by the same PS.

Check your connections for polarity. If you have a DVM, check the voltages
with only the suspect module in attached. If you have a DVM, call Paul,
and he can walk you through diagnosing the faulty component.
