The campfire is supposed to flicker but mine just glows. Is there anyway to make it flicker? First look it doesnt look serviceable/no acess.

The campfire flickering is adjusted by the left crate. If the campfire does not flicker, either the control may be bad, or the board may need replacement. The accessory is being powered properly with 15-18 volts? Excessive voltage may damage the electronics. Here is exploded view and parts listing.
