Another Cool Runner Issue

Hello again. I have a Slim Trinity here, with the Cool Runner installed just last night. It was working fine until this morning, when while playing around with FSD the console froze entirely. In an attempt to reboot it, the green light on the CR didn't blink, at all. My first reacting was to check my soldering, which I did, and all seamed fine. I then launched the console again, and now the green light has started blinking every 5 seconds again, but it's not doing anything. It use to only take about 1-3 minutes for my console to turn on before, but now it's been on for over 10 minutes and still nothing has shown up, and it is still trying to glitch it. Any suggestions on what could be wrong? Would a bad solder joint to the HANA chip cause this? It's not the best one, but it does look like there is contact. Thank you.
 
We need pics of your points and yes a bad solder point even if it is connecting could cause issues.

I am going to say this is most likely soldering or wire position if it was taking 1 - 3 mins to boot. Even for a slim thats still a long time.

Like Dosk3n said prob your wires on the bottom of the board need routing or you have a bad connection on one of your solder points that looks ok to the eye.

Thank you for your quick responses. I just tried it again after work, and it's working fine. I am still going to go over the solder joints later tonight, but now my FSD keeps freezing exactly 90 seconds from it launching. I tried wiping it out and re-installing it to no avail. Not quite sure what is going on there.
