Spike Code Problems

Second, you don't have any way to turn the relay off. The if statement that wraps the relay.setDirection() should have an else case that does this.

I think you're making the same mistake the OP did. setDirection() is called once (if at all) to initialize the allowable directions, while set changes the physical state of the relay.
