It could be a 'Dirty Earth'.
As said, check all of the connections to see if any are damaged. When the earth connection is bad the lights can earth through eachother causing strange effects! |

As said, most likely you have 3x 206 Nimrods and 1x 406 Nimrod.
They look exactly the same except the 406 ones stick out way to far as they are the wrong offset. |
