Re: Digital Sidecar Ports are dropping out.
Team 368 sort of had this problem also. Sort of beacuse the PWM still works...it just only works in driving the motor in one direction. One of our PWMs (I believe 8 or 10) only allows the motor to spin in one direction. We swapped PWM cables and it still didn't work. We know it's not programming since it worked fine for most of the Hawaii regional.

Since we were using all 10 PWMs on the digital side car, we ended up swapping the half broken PWM output with our shooter flywheel (since the flywheel only spins in one direction anyway).
