The jumpers are set to 0-5v and i did check it at the dimming expansion.

Disconnect the dimming wires and check the dimming expansion again.

Re: Can someone tell my why my lights aren't working?
Looks correct. Disconnect the lead from channel 0 and check the DC voltage from there to the ground terminal. You shouldn't be getting any more than 5 volts and I want to isolate the dimming module from your dimmers to see where the extra voltage is coming from.

What lighting setup are you using, BTW?

Re: Can someone tell my why my lights aren't working?
I am using a DIY build from RapidLED. LDD-1000H drivers: 2 ,LDD-650H drivers: 2, Power Supply: SE-350-48 , 4 x SemiLEDs True UV LEDs (400-410nm), 16 x CREE XP-G2 Cool White LEDs, 16 x CREE XT-E Royal Blue LEDs.
LDD-1000 for 8 CWs x 2
LDD-650 for 8 RB & 2 UV x 2

11.25 from channel 0 to grd with no line going into channel 0.
Should I disconnect the drivers from the dimmer signal if it is sending this amount of voltage?
I really don't want/ can't replace them right now?

Yep, and PM Roberto to see if he has any ideas. I don't think the dimming module should be putting out 11.25v under any circumstances.

Re: Can someone tell my why my lights aren't working?
FWIW, I accidentally had one of mine set to 10V for a period of time with no ill effects.
Let us know if you get it working.

Do you have any other expansion modules?
What kind of head unit are you using?

I have no other expansion modules, only the wifi. I am using the RA Plus with PWM dimming

Re: Can someone tell my why my lights aren't working?
Can you open the case and verify that you have all 3 jumpers inside.
They should come by default, but it could have been missed.

Also, run the I2CScanner code and send the results:

3 jumpers are there

Yeah, I don't see the module in the list.
I sent you a PM with the RMA #.
