Are you sure pwm is only for that Jaguar and not used for something else?
The last thing I can think of is the following. If this Jaguar is for your drivetrain, then you have it programmed wrong. If it is just for a window motor which should he attached to a spike relay, you also have it wrong. What exactly are you using this Jaguar for? I probably should've asked that in my first response.
I am using the Jaguar for a drivetrain CIM motor. Frankly, I've never had different programming for different motors, so I am not entirely sure what you mean.

It's often not the code you are focused on that causes problems, but the code you dismiss out of hand as "unrelated".
No, I've only opened PWM2 once. Woah, that scared me for a second.

An additional thing I should note was that once I removed code from the Disabled.vi and PeriodicTasks.vi dealing with the two motors (no longer referenced in the Begin.vi) from the demo code, I have no errors pop up when operating the robot. Before I removed that code, I had many, many errors from those two pieces of code.
