Problem Statement
Ball bot won't do anything but flash its eyes and mouth randomly

Robot recovery process
Steps taken so far
 * plug in wires as listed here. (Ball bot tutorial)
 * Nothing happened

Next steps
Find what is wrong, probably the battery connection.

Robot Diagnostic process
Once the correct battery port hole is found, try random wires until they do something. Next in an attempt to discover new abilities, test wires connections to see if anything new happens. If nothing happens run through the tutorial and plug the wires in as listed there to see what happens. Observe the code to make a link between the code and what is happening.

Robot Wiring
The wires will work when plugged in as the tutorial says. It does some sort of predetermined dance. Make sure the battery wires are attached

The white wires coming out of the switch box do not need to be connected to anything.

Robot Malfunction
Robot would only spin in a circle when only the yellow battery wire was connected. It did nothing when both were connected.

Ballbot Malfunction

Conflict resolved
Wires were loose where they plugged in internally.

Fixed loose wire

Issues
The head switch wire needs to be plugged in but it is floating, so you don't need to push the head to start it.

One of the motors has a week connection, wires need to be internally inspected and conflicts resolved.
