I'm confused by this being connected to BR.
Its a missing pull up resistor on BR & BGACK.
Yes. But both the pullup fixes are connected to BR, none of them to BGACK :)

Just put the /BGACK resistor in and now /BGACK, /BG & /BR all stay high, do i need to put that link to thepullups?

Looks like I've missed a resistor pack off, as some more pins haven't go pull ups either.. will post fixes shortly....

Photo of using an extra SIL to provide the 5 extra pull-ups and using the SIL to also provide the BGACK PULL UP FIX
The other wire is the BR PULL UP FIX
White insulating tape to stop any shorts whilst the board is laid flat
