One side of drivetrain not turning with frc-char

Hi all,

When running frc-char last week, we faced an issue when only one side of the drivetrain (left side) wouldn’t turn and the other side (the right side) would turn normally. We use Spark MAXes w/ NEO motors and you can see our configuration file here:
Robot Config - Pastebin.com

When running our robot normally, the robot drives like a normal robot should (both sides turn) so I don’t think encoder ports are the issue. You can cross check our encoder ports here Robot-2021/Constants.java at main · FRCTeam834/Robot-2021 (github.com).

The status lights on the Spark MAXes indicate that something should be happening (one side turns to a consistent red and the side that doesn’t move turns green)

Any ideas on how to fix this?

If the problem’s “between the status lights and the motor”, so to speak, then I doubt it has anything to do with frc-characterization, in particular. You’d do best to consult the NEO documentation.
