The joystick for this system is connected to USB 1. I have attached our code thus far. Let me know if I can answer any questions.

I have tried several sites, but cannot figure out what is wrong. Thanks!

We recently had this problem. Just to make sure, is the solenoid under PRESSURE while you're trying to switch? We spent about 40 minutes with this issue and we tried hooking up our compressor system to it and it switched perfectly.
