I'm using the frc default code 2005 for mc18 2.4, have already updated the firmware and have mc18 2.4 and mplab 6.62.
If someone knows what's my problem please tell me!!

Sometimes we get the blinking red light (Code Error) with the default code when we're driving with a low Main Battery and no Backup Battery.
If you see the voltage dip on the OI a lot (hit the select button a few times, and it will eventually display your main battery voltage) after driving, you might be under-volting the RC causing it to code error.
This happend to us quite a lot after a few minutes of driving Blizzard 5 (6 motor, 4x8" wheel drive with really grippy wheels).
If batteries were not fully charged, all it took was a couple seconds of all-out high-gear spinning on axis to cause the problem.
