I know someone near me who purchased this kit.

He assembled the control board; the yellow error light flashes when he tries to drive a single MOSFET with it for testing, and he cannot figure out why the yellow light is blinking. Further, he downloaded RTD explorer to his machine, and the program refuses to respond when the potentiometer is used to simulate acceleration.

I checked the controller over and it looks to have been assembled and wired correctly. Everything is in the proper location, and the soldering job was very clean. None of the components have ever smoked or burned. We spent the day trying to trouble shoot it.

He has not yet connected the control logic to the power setup. He has simply tried to drive a small MOSFET, and has not had any luck due to the error light blinking.

What do you think is the most likely culprit for the error?
