Hang on to and test the controllers when you have adequate time to fully test and possibly fix them (for off-season use only) 
It's surprising how many speed controllers over the years I have found to be operational that were initially deemed "bad".
How is everyone coming along in getting their bots up and running? |
Yes, we did try swapping around pwm cables and ports and determined that the PWM was most likely bad. It was reading 0 volts on the output side as well, and blinking instead of solid.
I think we are getting some borrowed Victors today, but I won't be able to be present tonight.

I can tell you that I feel happiest when I am giving or doing for others. I do not expect anything in return but just knowing that I can make things better, in my small way, makes me happy. - Steve W [more]
