I hooked them up to a remote control wireless switch and this caused them to blow the fuses.I replaced the fuses but still they are blowing the new fuse.I do not see any burnt marks inside and the led light board is ok as it works with another 200b that is good.
It is never a good idea using LED lights with Triac switches, which I assume if what will be in your remote control unit. Good old fashioned relay units are fine but there is often a problem with triac and thyristor controls as they do not expect the type of load that LED lights present and they often do not switch on properly causing all sorts of issues including burning out (invisibly) interal circuitry.

Before jumping to conclusions, one should do some testing. It is posssible that you are having a DMX data error. If your lines are long, please review the need for a termination resistor at the far end of a DMX chain. The reflections of the data pulses can confuse or cause errors. Test a unit up close to your controller so the cable is short. If that magically works, install a terminating resistor.
Beyond this, electronic testing needs to be done. I did find in a Chauvet LX5 a bad solder joint at a connector that brings the power for, in my case, the green LED's. There will be surface mounted resistors on the back of the board that limit the current to groups of LED's.
If the whole fixture loses the blue at once, either suspect a DMX error or the driver in the fixture.
