He's probably referring to the circuit breaker (that black thing with the red button on top). Note that the red button isn't the power button. The power button is the little black arm that stick out from the side.

Yes the ON button is pressed. Here is an uploaded picture of our wiring, it still isnt working?

Do you have the driver station application running?
Tell us which of the main status lights and the Diagnostics status lights are green.

Swap the positions of the two unused cRIO modules to put them where they belong.

Are the status LEDs (one is yellow and the other green) on and blinking where your Ethernet cable is plugged into the cRIO port 1?

Are all the Digital Sidecar status lights on solid green? I can only see two in the photo, not the "batt" or 5v status lights.

It will help us help you with answers to Mark's questions above.

A yellow flashing light on a Jaguar indicates it has power but no control signal. (More info here, pick the black jaguar getting started guide)

One possible cause for no control signal is missing or mis-wired PWM signals. The photos seem to show correct wiring, and you asserted that before.

Did you "enable" the robot from the driver's station? I'm not that familiar with it, but I remember there's a big red button on the display screen that needs to be green. A disabled robot cannot produce PWM signals.

Could you tell us what you did to get it going? Others searching for answers to similar problems might find it useful.
