Go to Post It's easy to get so caught up in the intensity of build that we forget we need some down time to recharge and get a fresh head. Taking a day off will only happen if you make it a priority as important as any other team meeting. Long hours do not equate to productive hours. - Greg Hainsworth [more]

Lloyd Burns is an unknown quantity at this point
Relay 8 is turned on in the forward mode (and off in the reverse), fairly well on in the default program. (It is used for the rotating beacon, which is always on.)

Perhaps you have a statement that tries to turn it on, but later in the loop it runs into the default code for setting the beacon, and you instructions are lost. Similarly, the code about the switches controlling the relays is way down, and maybe you have overlooked it.

Perhaps the pins sticking up from the circuit board are unstuck. If so, IFI should be phoned. They are very good in such emergencies. I'm assuming you haven't checked (or have no one who can check) the pins' connections or you'd have mentioned it in your post.
