Yes, we see it's executing relayArms.set(Relay.Value.kForward); but no light change occurs.

Yes, the relay LED changes to indicate reverse, and outputs the -12v, but does nothing on forward.
The relay is to control the motor for part of our arms mechanism.

This is a photo of our electronics board. The spike I am pointing to is the one we wish to control. The spike on the right does not work properly and will be removed soon.
