If you think you have swapped everything try swapping everything else. PD Board, Digital Module, and anything else that could even remotely fix the problem. Do them one at a time so you can isolate where the problem is.
Also double check the PWM connections and cables, change to different motor ports that you are using on the sidecar.
If you have a second digital module put in slot 4 (assuming 4-slot cRIO) and try to run of of that one.

Thank you for the suggestions; we'd thought of those, but we decided to consider alternatives before redoing everything.
Also, I just thought of another potential problem: is the PWM cable going into the Jaguar supposed to be. . .well, loose? When we insert a PWM cable into a Spike Relay, there is a good satisfying click. With the Jaguar, though, it just sort of slides in and slides out easily.
