Re: Piston extends but does not retract?
I think my wording was poor in my first post.

Basically we want the piston to extend then retract. Out programming team wrote code which was supposed to turn one side of the solenoid on then off, wait, then turn the other side on then off. The cRio lights only turn on as if only one side is working (we can get one side to work but not the other). Our programming mentors say the code looks fine, our electrical people say the wiring looks good. We can't figure out why it doesn't work.
