Problems With Padawan Communication

I've run into a bit of a snag with integrating the Padawan System with the Teeces set. The idea behind the two working together is that certain behaviors are triggered by button presses on the ps2 controller. This is suppose to work by having the Uno send a signal to the arduino controlling the teeces lights. In my case it is sending it to a micro. I've wired everything according to the wiki page, but there seems to be no communication between the two. The sounds still fire off just fine, but not light changes.

For now it's not a huge problem. I'm quite a ways out from even installing any of the electronics into my droid, you know, because I don't have any droid pieces except for the electronics yet. =D The dome should be on it's week later this week. Daren had to order some stronger boxes as UPS was destroying the originals. Unless I magically find an answer to the Padawan issue before I receive the dome, there likely wont be any further updates until I get the dome in. Can't wait to get started on it.
