Byteit101's comment is not appropriate and your wiring should work.

The resistors referenced by Brandon are 10K pull-ups and are internal to the sidecar (schematic). You do not need to add more.

Other than something very weird such as a bad DS or the DS not getting power, I would concentrate on software.

Unfortunately, my team is using Labview and I have not played with this year's C++ at all...

Good Luck,

Mike
For the digital inputs on the driver station does it have internal 10k pull ups?

We were getting bad data at times.
