This was the pre fabricated ribom cable from the kit, plus we tried it with another pre fabricated cable (an actual cable, not a ribon cable), so I don't think this is the problem, but all these cables were new this year so it is a possibility. I will check it tomorrow with the ribon cable we used last year and know works.
Thanks.
