Problems with pneumatic

[austin121scott]

So I am a first year programmer for our team and I am having some trouble with the pneumatics in our system. We program using FRC vscode and I have written the code using resources available to me and my limited knowledge of coding. Problem: Our pcm status light is on but the compressor will never kick on. I declared a double solenoid in our programming and declared the right can ports (0,1).

Robotmap:

 public static final int THEARM_PITCH_SOLENOID_DEPLOY = 0;
  public static final int THEARM_PITCH_SOLENOID_RETRACT =1;

My subsystem named “Thearm”

  DoubleSolenoid pitchsolenoid = null;

  public Thearm() {
    pitchsolenoid = new DoubleSolenoid(RobotMap.THEARM_PITCH_SOLENOID_DEPLOY, RobotMap.THEARM_PITCH_SOLENOID_RETRACT);
  }

  public void pitchup() {
    pitchsolenoid.set(Value.kForward);
  }

  public void pitchdown() {
    pitchsolenoid.set(Value.kForward);
  }

  public void shiftlow() {
    pitchsolenoid.set(Value.kReverse);
  }  

Armdown command:

public class armdown extends InstantCommand {
  
  public armdown() {
    super();
   

    requires(Robot.m_Thearm);
  }

  
  @Override
  protected void initialize() {
    Robot.m_Thearm.pitchdown();
  }

}

armup command:

public class armup extends InstantCommand {
  
  public armup() {
    super();
   

    requires(Robot.m_Thearm);
  }

  @Override
  protected void initialize() {
    Robot.m_Thearm.pitchup();

and then I mapped the commands to my joystick:

 public OI() {
    D1.whenPressed(new armup());
    D2.whenPressed(new armdown());
   }

I also declared my subsystem here:

 @Override
  public void robotInit() {
    
    m_Thearm = new Thearm();
    m_oi = new OI();

If you guys have and advice as to what the problem is please let me know. Any help is greatly appreciated.
