      @sankafola the SE compares the ratio of the Vcc that its microcontroller receives with the output voltage from its internal regulator. It can happen that the Vcc or Gnd pin connection is bad but the SE receives phantom power via the Mod pin, which can be sufficient to light the LED. The other possibility is that the internal regulator has failed so its output voltage is too high.

      Has this SE previously been working normally? When/where did you purchase it?

          @sankafola are you able to measure the voltage between the Vcc and Gnd pins on the underside of the effector safely? That would remove the possibility of a bad crimp connection. Leave the 6-pin connector not connected as in your photo.

            @dc42 if i leave the connector off where it will get the power from ? the power getting from pin 1 in the connector to the SE no ? \

            connector is plugged then between VCC and GND is 5v if the connector off no voltage

            i check the voltage from pin 1 to pin 3 while the connector is off its same 5v

                i messuered voltage while the connector is on the smart effector and it was 5 v and i took the connector off and messure between the pin 1 ( VCC) and the GND and its 5v

                note: i also tried to take the mod off and its the same still flashing 9 times
