Solenoid Break Out Power Help

[gsesny]

Magnets,

Thank you for the reply. I will try and take some pictures this afternoon when working with the kids. To clarify a bit…the Solenoid Breakout if plugged into the Solenoid Module. I have Crio-II and the module is plugged into the third port. On the module there are 8 LED lights. The software is programmed to activate the double solenoid on pins 2 and 3. When we activate the telop mode I have LED #2 lit up and can toggle between 2 and 3 which I assume tells me that the code is working?

I have tried to power the breakout in several ways. I first tried using the PDB board. I definitely made sure I had the correct polarity, switched breakers and even switched ports on the PDB board. None of them caused the LED Power light to light up on the breakout. I then tried to connect the breakout to an external power supply of 12 volts DC and this also did not get the LED power light to light up. BTW I have looked at the break out and it doesn't even look like there is a LED there. It just looks like a tiny hole where they say there is supposed to be and LED. (I have the break out revision 4).
