Re: Signal light trouble-shooting

Hey guys,

Team 668 has done all that and the light will not turn on. HOWEVER, I put the volt meter to pos. and neg. terminals on another light port on the RC when the robot was on and I tripped the light thus making it turn on. So, with this and in talking to our programmers i think that the lights will work just fine come competition. (They might need the competition controller to be plugged in to work)

Re: Signal light trouble-shooting

We just got our new relay today. So I put it on and nothing happened. There is a red light on the relay that lights up though. Is there a certain team color pin for the pwm cable to be connected too?

Thanks

Re: Signal light trouble-shooting

Master,
If the light on the relay is lighting then it is being fed correctly. The wiring error lies between the relay and the lamp. Be sure to install all the jumpers shown in the diagram particularly the one across the relay which supplies the return for the lamp.

Re: Signal light trouble-shooting

We are having the same issue with our signal light, however, when in the voltage setting on our volt meter, we get an output of 12 for all of the connections on the signal light. Has anyone occured this problem before?
