The Black Cable leads to the LED cables which leads to the sensors at the other end . When I installed a black cable I had that same experience and it was the plug-in to the LED cable that I had to reset. That Black Cable is very tricky to get centered and strain on it will cause an issue, but aside from reseating the plug to the LED cable it may mean another Black Cable.
