Re: Digital Sidecar Connection Issue

This may sound odd. I tested this thing alot. I found that attaching a jumper allows the center pin to put out 6V (as is proper.) Using a

Please note, if you've looked at those pictures, they are not standard PWM cables they are simply 3 pin signal cables we soldered one end to make pins and the other end already had a 3 pin clip piece. These SHOULDNT be a problem, we've tested them.

Anyway, this is really starting to irritate me, I know the sidecar is functioning, but I can't get a signal to either of my Victors or my Spike.

I've narrowed it down to three things...

a) Faulty Signal Cables
b) Two victors AND a spike all broken (unlikely, they worked before)
c) Signal issue (I doubt it, the "signal light" is putting out a constant voltage)
