Make sure all cables and power leads are hooked up correctly polarity wise, and when they are right, make sure they're tight! It'll save you alot of headaches later.
On the subject of PWM's coming loose, it is a good idea to put a blob of RTV silicone sealant (only a couple bucks at just about any hardware store) on all PWM connections. It holds them in place, but if you really need to get it off it can be peeled off with relative ease.
