Re: Mecanum forward rotation error

Update: We've isolated the problem to the lights on the sidecar. Something is breaking the 6V light. Every time this disable problem happens the sidecar's 6V light is off. When we switched a new sidecar in, the three lights turned on and we got our full rotation functionality back, but today we just broke the light again by rotating too much apparently and somehow overloaded the sidecar. It auto-disabled again and now the 6V light won't come on again. What I don't get is jaguars shouldn't be affected by the 6V since their PWMs use 5V.
What breaks a sidecar's 6V capability?
