Re: Potentiometer wiring

Thanks for the answers.
We now know that the potentiometer doesn't go into the sidecar.
Still, the wiring is probably wrong. Since I read that the Pots have the (+ S -) outputs and the input on the analog input is (- + S). We wired the cables red to red, black to black and white to white. I now understand this is wrong. So i've have to basicly rewire (probably use a new pot because i believe its fried) and figure out the output on the wires from the pot and ignore colors while connecting them to a PWM cable to go into analog breakout on the cRIO.
