That is not precisely true. When the robot is disabled and they are receiving no signal, they will blink. When they are receiving a signal, they are solid. When full forward is commanded, green, and full reverse, red. To put it another way, when the robot is enabled, the jags do NOT blink.

A blinking jag means no command signal - i.e. a poor pwm cable, a bad pwm connection, a malfunctioning digital sidecar, a bad ribbon cable, or bad code.
