Sounds like a hardware issue, to me. How is your switch wired?

3

Agreed, and also I suggest finding out about arrays and the code tags (# button when posting)...

4

You declared useful names for the pins, so why not use them?

CODE TAGS and arrays, yeah.

thanks guys for the tips, must be the wiring...... im still new here, i see the code tags ill use them next time, thanks!
