Soleniod module Crio problem

We use the soleniod module #9472 to control 2 pneumatic soleniods and with the pneumatics bumper. We are still using the 12 volt system. We noticed while working on it yesterday that relay pins on #3 of the bumper were not functioning on the bumper chip; when we switched it on through our normal controls there was no current detected by the volt meter, however the other slots did work on the bumper. The green LEDs on the cRio module also all functioned.
We made a change to the code to use another slot, deployed it, restarted the robot, and now none of the soleniods are functioning. The LEDs on the module in the Crio are not lighting up like they should, but the power light on the bumper is lighting up. We loaded on the previous code and still nothing. I am guessing that the slot module is bad. I am going to reimage the cRio now, but does anyone know whats wrong??
