IR Board unresponsive reprogram??

ok... so like 10 minutes before we had to pack the robot up for shipment, the students were pushing the robot across the floor (generating that slight amount of current) which fried all 4 of our IR boards... so i took all 4 of them off, and shipped without them...


in the mean time ive been working on them... the voltage regulator had melted leads (which made sense), so i replaced them today, and the board is still not responding.

I have tested all the resistors and capacitors on the board and nothing seems to be faulty. The board itself creates a complete circuit, but when i apply power the board is unresponsive. No error light, and the program button does nothing.

The only thing i believe it could be is the PIC. Might it need reprogramming? replacing?

has anybody else had this problem? or could maybe shead some light on the situation


Thank you for your time in advance
