RSL blinking/not working

[PhilBot]

funny, our BFL does the same. When the led flashes, so does the light. But when the led is solid on, the lamp still flashes. It's as if the lamp has a flasher bulb like a Xmas tree light.

We only have two of the lamp connections wired. I keep telling the kids to check the wiring diagram.

The lamp basically does have a flasher in it. The extra wire specified between the outer two connections disables it.

The large, external RSL needs to have a jumper installed. The jumper is installed between the La adn Lb pins at the light connector per the Robot Power Distribution Diagram.
