Preforming the Safe Mode format should not be a problem as long as it succeeded. If the DS says everything is fine, the issue is likely with the wiring for the Digital Sidecar. Check to make sure the BAT, 5V and 6V lights on the Digital Sidecar are all brightly lit.

If you are using the ribbon cable from the Kit of Parts it may need to be fixed. See this page for details (add www at the beginning):
