Exclamation cRio Power Light Not Turning on and no Activity
Hello all,

I'm from team 888 and our cRIO seems to me that it is broken in some way. When attached into our robot, the power light has stopped turning on and the cRio will not do anything. I have redone the cables to the cRio and checked voltage drops over the whole system. Everything seems as though it should work.

After all these tests didn't tell me anything, I took the cRio out of the robot and made an incredibly simple circuit by connecting power to the Power Distribution Board and connecting the 24V out into the cRio. I turned it on and nothing happened. I changed out the connectors to see if they were the problem and tried again. Nothing.

This is my last attempt at finding a solution until I reccomend to my coach that we either send the cRio out to be fixed or to just by a whole new cRio.

Please Help Me!

Thanks,
Morton
