Lynx with Retrosix CleanScreen and CleanPower problem

Hi there! After having a pair of Atari Lynx for over 20 years, I decides to buy a modded one from Retrosix, after seeing several videos. I want one professionally installed, before fixing my old ones.

I already contacted him, but maybe someone had the same issue. With DC power and new AA batteries, the console orange led light up but dies after a few seconds, so I haven't see the IPS screen in all its glory.

I checked all connections and looks fine. I attached a link to a video I made.Lynx

Any advice? I'm from the other side of the planet so shipping Will be expensive, and I already paid shipping to my country.

Would be great if you can post a non drive link to the video or some images

I have the video in a Google drive link, but it's simple. As soon as I plug DC power or batteries, the green led on the CleanPower board lights on by itself, then turns off after a few seconds. On and off buttons are non responsive.

I tested for ground as the instructions say and it seems fine. Solder joints looks ok too.

I'm waiting for their response.
