Re: Compressor

Sounds like you're doing everything right.

If the Relay LED is going on, then you don't have a code problem.
The problem has to be between the Relay output pins and the Spike.

It's possible that the Spike PWM connection isn't being made, since it's down that hole.
Have 3 other people try to make that connection one-at-a-time.

Also examine the connection to the Relay output pins closely. Don't just disconnect and reconnect, but look at it. The PWM connector can be missing the outside pin by accident.
