I have tried connecting the sheild drain on one end and on both ends together it doesn't seem to make a diffrence either way. I currently have it connected on one end.

I am using a diffrential encoders. I have tried the ones that came on the motors originally and I bought a US digital encoder to try. I am having the same problems regardless of the encoders I use.

Thanks for the responces guys.
