Solenoid Issue

[Mark McLeod]

The rows of green LEDs on the solenoid module will turn green if a single solenoid is ordered "on" and will be off if ordered "off".
There is no red.

A double solenoid should alternate green on one LED while the corresponding reverse LED is off, and vice versa when it is set to "Forward" and "Reverse"

For our single solenoid, the green light is always on. What does that mean?

[Mark McLeod]

That would be a code problem.

Your code sets the solenoid "On", but never "Off", or at least it immediately gets reset to "On' if you are managing to set it to "Off".
Off never gets a chance.

i tried reversing the on and off, moving the wire and changing the programming to 3 on the solenoid breakout and I also tried changing buttons. nothing worked. it is always on.
