I need to a bypass the controller on a Christmas Star so it stays on constantly.
It has 5 wires going into the 8 function controller.
Transformer is 24vac.
I have looked everywhere for a fix with no success.20240114_171343.jpg

I'm not certain that this particular MFC can be easily bypassed.

It seems to use a variant of the polarity witching method normally seen with 2 wire light sets.
