Troubleshooting Wiring

There's generally 2 types of wiring issues to be troubleshot -

  1. power issue

  2. CAN/data issue

Status lights are incredibly helpful to determine the troubleshooting path. The WPILib Status Lights Document is the most cohesive document, but each supplier will have their own version of these charts and documents.

Most component light code charts have been added to its tab on the Components page.

Another incredible useful resource is knowing how to read the log filed that the driver station collects. Read this WPILIB Article on the Driver Station Log Files.
