Help setting up dual vesc via CANBUS

I have 2 vesc 4.12s with the latest vesc tool. I cant seem to figure out how to connect them together. i have done everthing that I have seen and I got it to work by chance. Then I turn off the power and turn it on again and it quits working. if anyone know how to do this it would be greatly appreciated I have been fighting this for 2 days now.

V 4.12 doesn't like if you have CAN connected and power up the two ESC one after another! This kills the CAN chip.

If CAN doesn't work any longer, you might have killed a CAN chip.

Some manuals for setup:
