K1 / Bowens fallen out

Hi everyone, it's late and I've just run into a problem with a important job tomorrow...

I use a Bowens Pulsar and 2xGemini pro lights with my K1. Never had any problems till now - the lights have stopped flashing.

The test button fires the flash, both of them in fact work and I've confirmed they're okay testing with a different camera and sync lead.

But on my K1 neither the Pulsar / nor sync lead direct to the camera and light work???

Is there a setting I've changed accidentally? on my K1? I can't find anything, I know in other DSLR's you can kill any flash activation.

If anyone has any 'bright' ideas I'd be really grateful... Jaron

Cant think of anything off the top of my head. My first thought was low battery power in the trigger. But if you have used it successfully in another camera. Im guessing not.... I have the Bowens Gemini lights and the K1, never had an ounce of trouble.. But I dont use the Pulsar trigger.... Hope you find the answer.. I'll be intrigued to find out what it was...!!
