Dana, I'm the one feeling like an idiot. Turns out the ground fault fuse was blown in a brand new controller. I did't have my meter with me to test the fuse and had to go back the next day. I had a good fuse in the 2nd controller not yet hooked up so I could have borrowed that one and had the system up and running. Only cost me 4 hours of drive time by not having my meter.
