1. The Crio is powered from the dedicated 24 volt output of the PD and you have checked the wiring to be sure there is no strands or the wire touching?
2. The wiring from the battery connector to the 120 amp circuit breaker is tight, both the cable clamp and the hardware on the breaker and the PD?
3. The voltage jumper is on the analog module and the module is plugged into slot 1?
4. The LED on the Spike is showing that it is powered and changes when the robot is enabled?
5. The digital sidecar is plugged into a digital module in slot 4 of the Crio and the multipin cable is secure at both ends?
6. The digital sidecar is connected to a 12 volt output of the PD through a breaker and the cable is good at both ends, again with no strands touching at either end?
7. The digital sidecar power supply lights are ON and bright showing the three power supply voltages are good?
8. The Crio is switching to enabled and other parts of the robot function correctly and are inhibited when the robot is disabled?
9. When you say no signals are being processed do you mean you have no control of the robot either wireless or tethered?
10. If things work when you are tethered but not when wireless, do you have the dedicated +12 volt power supply connected to the router?

1) yes odd thing is crio says its powered on the thing, but it wont sent signals
2) no ends are missing, everyting is right there.
3) yes
4)just is always red, odd thing is that it just stoped working, we have replaced the spike and the code didnt change from when it stopped working.
5)its secure, but weird things are happening, a member of our team short circuited the board and we have replaced almost everything touching that.
6) yes but with a blinking light...
7)yes, but we have that blinking light close to the end (see below)
8)nothing functions.
9)its not about being teathered vs wireless, thats not a problem, no signals as in turn motar on and it doesnt do it, it doesnt even see the signal it just keeps blinking red yellow at us (we are using vectors)
10)its reciving the signals, the 12v is conected and always has been.

On Digital Sidecar, we have a blinking light on the other side of wago from the 5V, 6V, and Bat LED. Does that tell us something?!
