Encoder on SRX Returning wildly differing values

Just hooked up our E4P encoders, and we are getting wildly differing values. I confirmed that my java code matched the the rio browser selftest output. All firmware is up to date. I am pretty sure it is not a coding problem.

If you push the joystick forward for 2 seconds 1 encoder will read several thousand revolutions the will read a couple hundred. The wheels are spinning just fine. The robot move in perfectly straight line.

How do you confirm that an encoder is damaged or wired incorrectly?
