Defective Talons

[Dragonslayerend]

Talons have been ran a few times and now when it turns on we get flickering lights between red and orange. What could be the problem? NOTE: This is when we turn on the talon, it isn't enabled or something of that sort.

According to the Talon User Manual (http://www.crosstheroadelectronics.com/Talon_User_Manual_1_3.pdf), the red/orange fault code means either there is under 3.3V input, it is over 170 degrees C, or there is a shorted output transistor.
What is the voltage going into the Talon?
Does it get hot?

If both of these are good, then the output transistor is shorted. Somehow it might have gotten damaged, most likely due to incorrect wiring.
