Car Wash, why can't I select wash options

[nonecure]

I was in middle of doing the car wash sample, but the wash option buttons don't work.  What am I missing?

The Wash Options cluster is shown as disabled (but not disabled and grayed out). In the parts of the code you posted I do not see anything which changes the enabled condition of the control. The subVIs and .ctl files were not included, so something might be in those.

Wow, I feel stupid.  Not sue how that became disabled but thanks.

Consider it part of your preparation for the exam. When control becomes unresponsive the first two things which come to mind are enabled/disabled state and an event structure Value Changed event with lock front panel checked.

I did not search now but I think there has been some discussion either on the LabVIEW Board or the Idea Exchange about why the Disabled but not grayed out option even exists. It certainly leaves the button pusher wondering why nothing happens.
