Am I using the wrong function? is it pluged in wrong? When I use the same PWM port on a motor it works fine. Any ideas?

1) Are you using a 3-wire PWM cable (i.e., is there a 3pin connector at each end, and is the center red wire connected to the middle pin at each end)?
2) Do you have the power jumper in place to provide power on the middle pin for the servo?
3) You aren't trying to lift a hundred pounds with that servo, are you?
