cheers cavx, yeah, not the best. what is it I'm typinginto Google if I want to replace the wire and connector. don't fancy replacing all of the electronics for 1 wire. but as for the random off/on of the board... meh. luckily, here in Nottingham, we have a place called hackspace which has people and equipment for all sorts (could create a 1 off of the concept design shoe quickly I reckon too which is the next plan) as a communal access thing, which will be my next stop for reprogramming the board to actually work should answers here fail.
