SparkMAX Common Problems

These usually show up in MAXSwerve robots..

SparkMAX Absolute Encoder Boards

The should be zip tied and hot glued to the SparkMAX for redundancy and to prevent the board from coming loose.

Throughbore Connection to the absolute encoder board

The connector from the and the should be hot glued down on BOTH connection points because these can come out easily!

The wire should also be tensioned just right, if its over tensioned the wire mgiht not be fully in the connector and the data could be incomplete, corrupted, or unnavailable.

Status Frame Error

Usually if there's a status frame error it means that your connection to the REV Throughbore is incomplete somehow, or the sensor cable from your motor is loose or broken!

If you see this be sure to check ALL SENSOR CABLES GOING INTO THAT SPARKMAX!
