Nothing Works!

Our bot does not do ANYTHING right. It was working fine last night, just not anymore. The camera has erratic and random spasms, even without code running on the camera, the tank drive does not respond to joysticks, and the light sensors do not detect. Everything in the sidecar fails us. However, relays work.

Here is what we have done to try to fix or diagnose the problem...

-replaced sidecar

-replaced PWM cables

-probed for inputs

-went back to old working code

-tried relays

-re-imaged cRIO

-replaced big gray cable

-tried sample code which failed

Does anyone have any ideas? Any input would be nice.

Thanks!

EDIT: We unplugged everything but two speed controllers/motors and they worked for some reason while using sample code.
