2nd, 3rd and 4th this.
Even when you inspect the pins on the PWM cables, they may look "straight," but chances are all 3 will be VERY slightly deflected forward or backward. If they are, the next time you plug them in, you're likely to "miss" the connector inside the Victor again. The first thing you need to do is check that all your PWM connector pins are perfectly straight.
If I could teach the "super-straight near-zero insertion force Victor PWM cable connector wiggle technique" through a Chief Delphi post, I'd probably save young FRC teams hundreds of hours of lost troubleshooting time.
The problem is, I could explain it all I want, and even film it in detail. It'll just look like any regular person haphazardly plugging a PWM connector into Victor, when really there is a lot more going on there.
