    Maybe if you explained what you have been doing to/with the machine we could make some guesses.

    Make sure that the wiring on the top cover that plugs into the card on the back of the Y rail is not plugged in upside down. These are the wires you have to unplug to get the cover off. Also make sure the clear cover tab is making good contact with the switch plunger and that the clear cover is not twisted.

    Maybe we should update our signatures to automatically say that for any of the trouble shooting posts.

    As a last resort, to trouble shoot, try disconnecting the FFC ribbon. A short in the 5V system somewhere can cause the message.
