How does it affect you?

This situation does not allow us to use the external fault which is a valuable tool for our tests in Turin next week.

Hi!
This morning, I and @andresoll did the work on the robot and on disassembling the wiring we found this connector slightly detached from the fault board and that is why the fault was giving problems.
In fact, once it was reconnected properly, it no longer gave any problems and to prevent it from coming loose again I put a drop of glue on it.
Maybe Andrea will give more information

thank you @AntonioAzocar, I asked @ste93 to prove that everything is working properly. This morning I will go to the robot arena to verify that everything is working.

Yes sorry, yesterday we did a test together with @andresoll @SofiaFaraci and @elandini84 and it worked well for 6h and 30 min, we suppose that the old problems were caused by the faulty connector and probably the charger of the button.

Great @ste93, thank you for the feedback.

Good job @AntonioAzocar @andresoll! 🚀

@ste93 @elandini84 feel free to open a new issue if the problem reoccurs.

Closing!
