I dont think we have any loose crimps on our bot - we always made the pirate noise when we crimped terminals on the cables
Never say "never" but good work on the testing. You mentioned relay several times in that last post, but I am assuming you were talking circuit breaker. I am still concerned that you were able to reset on tether but not with the radio. That still sounds like a high resistance connection or a lot of current on the OI side or something else. We have had a problem over the years with the little fuse holders on the side of the controllers. They are prone to break where the pin leaves the printed circuit board. (This is a problem when you have a lot of wiring run close by that side of the controller.) That break is very hard to find and diagnose, but the good news it is repairable. Innovation First will take care of it for you. Let us know if find anything else.
