The TalonSRX's may not properly configured and multiple Talons may have the same device ID because of that. The roboRIO web utility can help make sure all Talons have unused device ID's so they don't get confused on robot boot-up. Also, verify that the RoboRio on the robot you guys moved the speed controllers has the latest firmware and imaging.

If you guys have time to put the speed controllers back on the robot that they worked on, I suggest you guys try that to ensure that the speed controllers aren't actually damaged.

thanks for the quick reply!
i probably mixed the blink codes in my head
we never used CAN for talons, so every one of their IDs is probably 0, which might cause this problem. i will change it tomorrow.
anyway, do you think this problem will cause the LEDs to indicate damaged hardware?
