Re: Roboclaw is dead? No LEDs

I recommend you send the units in for examination.
Note the Roboclaw is not a DC power supply. It is not designed to be a DC power supply. There may be unexpected behavior causing the failure because they have never been tested in that application.
Sign-magnitude mode should work with a resistive loads like yours but we have never tested them under those conditions.
Note driver failures may not have any smell or abvious burns. But I agree this sounds like a logic supply issue since there are no leads.
