Re: Problem: Pneumatics Not Firing

I know sometimes the solenoids can be wired in a place that's hard to see - but I believe most of them have little red lights for when they're actuated. If you see them turn red when the operator is trying to actuate - it might be that your cylinders (or is it a piston? I can't remember if the hashtag is #IACNAP or #IAPNAC...) is binding up/bent. A little bit of torque in the wrong direction may cause inconsistent failures.
