Sharmandra,
Those relay LEDs on the Digital Sidecar will tell what it's ordering the Spike to do, and the Spike indicator light will reflect the Relay LED color. Green for forward and Red for backwards.

So if the relay LED isn't lit, that's why the Spike should remain orange. It's doing what it's been ordered to do.
