Peter,
You have tried everything I would have gone through. That really leaves only the side car as being defective. If the PWM signals that pass through are functioning normally and are disabled when the robot is disabled then it can only be the side car.
A software expert can answer this better than I but the default code is written such that the RSL functions when the robot is disabled and flashes one of a series of codes that indicate certain conditions on the robot. When enabled, the RSL light should come on solid.

"There are four states of this status LED, listed here in order of priority. If multiple occur, the highest one listed is what is displayed.

1. Fast Blink (200ms on / 200ms off) - System error: No driver's station communication, bad cRIO Image, bad team ID, extensive communication errors.
2. Steady on - Everything ok
3. Fast-Slow Blink (200ms on / 900ms off) - System disabled either by system watchdog, user watchdog, or Driver's Station set to disabled and low battery (<12 Volts)
4. Slow Blink (900ms on / 900ms off) - System disabled"
