    Can you show the board layout's?
    It's hard to follow past the via's.

    theres the image of the board, and i will attach the eagle file here too.

    i labelled all the "important" pins. the rest go to I/Os.... and MCLR2 resistor, is a 1Mohm resistor, and its for PGM. i just didnt relabel it when i put it in there... and there was an issue with the gnd side of the caps, so i ran a jumper wire from there to the ground pin..

    Probably another wrong one, but I can't tell from the picture.

    Looking at some of the holes, they don't seem to be plated thru.
    It could be reflections from the other side or something.

    <img src="http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=2304&stc=1&d=120158257 0" />

    Where it would matter the most (if true) is on the +5V pin on that connector I should have been looking at the first time.
    It doesn't have a good solder joint on the top layer, which is the side the trace connects to.

    <img src="http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/attachment.php?attachmentid=2305&stc=1&d=120158283 4" />

    If the thru-hole plating is intact, it probably won't matter.

    If I remember right, from the other Treadbot thread, these are homemade PCB's correct? Probably not plated thru holes unless he's got some fancy-shmancy equipment.
    But that's easy enough to work around.
    I'm rooting for that to be the fix..........Big bucks....no whammy's......STOP!
