Jaguars Blinking Red

We are using a tank drive system with one motor on one jaguar. The problem we seem to be having is some kind of current overload. Whenever we attempt to run the motor, the jaguar almost instantly locks up and blinks red for a few seconds, however if you EXTREMELY slowly ramp up the speed from 0-100% you can avoid this lock up.
The motor is not currently connected to anything, as we were thinking strain was causing it to lock up, but even without driving anything, we encounter the same problem.
If anyone knows any possible causes of this problem or solutions, the help would be extremely appreciated.
