Exclamation Weirdest issue with our robot!

I'm on team 3131 and as we were doing driving tryouts our robot suddenly developed an odd problem. Whenever we turn to the left, the jaguars seem to lose signal because they just go blinky lights. What's weird is that it's only when we turn left! At first the problem was only when yu turned maybe 45 degrees hard. And we kept repeating the problem to troubleshoot and it got so sensitive that now it loses signal really fast. We have narrowed out loose pwms, faulty jags, losing power to jags, and the obvious. Is this maybe a proggramming problem or a electrical problem. Before the problem started we were being fairly gentle with it. At leat we weren't shaking the electronics very bad. We left the meeting tonight with no answer and were coming back tomorrow to trouble shoot. Any advice? If there are any questions then just ask and I'd be happy to answer. We are desperate!!! Thanks!
