Hi, so I have an issue with running my autonomous off of the competition switch. It works fine off of my controller but does not run during a match. I have had several refs and mentors from multiple schools look at it, but still no luck.
I have run the program on a test bot and it worked perfectly. I am almost certain it is a hardware issue, not a code issue as I had the same problem in PROS earlier this year and that is the reason I switched to VEXcode. None the less I have included my code.

My system software is also up to date according to VEXcode and the standalone updater.
Does anyone know what could be causing this issue?
Thank you for the help
