Need Help troubleshooting photoresistor RC circuit

I am getting some strange activity from the boebot with the RoamingTowardTheLight.bs2 program on page 223 of the boebot text. The boebot is turning in a right circle regardless of the intensity of the light. Any suggestions?

    swright -

    First check to make sure you servos are centered properly by using the centering procedure and program provided in the BOE-Bot instructions. Second, make sure that the wheels have not become loose from the servo horns.

    If those prove not to be the problem, then the light sensors and their connections are probably the next place to start looking.

    You don't mention if the BOE-Bot ever worked properly.

    Regards,
