Re: PWM Connections

What kind of motor controllers are you using, Victor 884, Talon, Tan Jaguar, or something else? Talons take a bit of work to get the PWM connector in the slot, but once it's in you shouldn't have any trouble. Victors are notoriously difficult to make a good PWM connection unless you have years of experience doing it right. Jaguars are simple to plug into, but you really need to use the cable retaining hook to keep the connection from coming loose easily.
