Problem with my Apexi Power FC commander

I have a commander that was working 2 years ago. Just yesterday I plugged it in and the problem I am having is the commander displays the boot screen with the Apexi logo lit but it won't go passed that point. I have unplugged it and replugged it back in and no luck. The only thing I did different was install a J spec RHD harness and changed the blue plug. The car starts and runs fine. I really need this working I use it to display my car settings. I have no aftermarket gauges in the car anymore

Pistons,

I am having the same problem...
Can you please expand on your fix...
Was it the wires at the connector or where they connect to the commander itself?

I pulled the commander apart I think it was 6 screws. The commander had about 5 wires soldered onto the board. The problem was my commander had two of the wires that had un soldered. I basically plugged it in touched the wires until it came up and then re soldered it.
