This didn't occur to me because without the encoder the victors, jaguars and spikes worked fine. I assumed that we had not wired the encoder correctly.

The battery LED was not lit even though all power sources were correctly wired. We replaced the sidecar with one that had all three LED lit and everything worked perfectly as built.
Happy to hear that.

See y'all at BAE
