Re: 3538 Controls

it's never the power that makes a board look like a nest. It's the darned PWM cables!

Re: 3538 Controls

No they run up top so there easy to see. There are tie-wraps thru the holes to keep them nice and neat though. Will update picture on Wednesday

Re: 3538 Controls

Nice work on your wiring, now to ensure my team keeps our PWM cables clean too.

Re: 3538 Controls

Our wiring is even neater! Or it was neater. At some point in time. We used lightweight plastic made up of square channel and ran wires through the inside. But the PWMs mess everything up.

Re: 3538 Controls

It seems that one of the best reasons to use the CAN bus is to prevent a huge nest of PWM cables.

Re: 3538 Controls

Oh my goodness.
Our cables weren't that bad until tonight, they had just gotten the sensor wiring done. It's such a mess...
