Hi, im trying to hook up a 4 wheel drivetrain to the V5 brain and im failing to connect up all 4 motors and get them to work. I am able to connect motor 1 to pin 1, but trying to connect more motors to pins 2 etc disconnects the first motor for some reason? Any reason why?
I was able to get all 4 motors connected up before and showing on the connected devices page, but only the left side would move, not the right.
I dont think my code is the issue, its just the default VexCode ProV5 4 wheel drivetrain 4 wheel drive on pins 1,2,3,4
What coding language are you using?
Can you show us the code you have tried?
Can you confirm that all motors are plugged in? There should be red light showing.
Our team had a similar error to this, and it was because our file was somehow corrupted, so the left side of the controller was doing one part of a drivetrain-type, while the other half was doing another.
Although I cannot confirm this is your issue, you might want to troubleshoot by copying all your code to another project, with everything the same as before, just a new project.
Another troubleshooting method is to take one of your motors off on the right side and see if it starts moving. One of your motors could be damaged or moving toward the wrong side.
Yeah, i did a lot of messing around with the brain ports and wires. I found a lot of faults in the wires, so i had to switch those out. Plus, it didnt work on some ports so i just kept going around the brain til i found ports that worked
