Hi! Can you help me please? I don't understand why the circuit doesn't work, but it works when the output of timer 555 is also connected to the oscilloscope, although it's the same thing.
You appear to be having convergence problems, which can come and go with just a slight change in the circuit.
Try the simulation with the .uic Spice command to "use initial conditions" which skips the initial DC operating point solution, and often solves the problem.
Do you know how to enter Spice commands in your simulator?
The circuit is OK, but not a very efficient use of components. It can only flash one color at a time, you could do that with a single pole 4 position switch.
