I have a problem with the relay that as the title says doesn't make any sense for me, it's the following:
If I send 5 V to send from one of the coil terminals from Vdd keeping a permanent short circuit the relay works (this can be done in Pickit2 by tools->troubleshoot->verify Vdd) as if I quit the connection from Vcc or connect it to a "0" it changes the contact accordingly (in fact I can hear it clearly).
But if I try to input 5 V from wherever other place it ignores them.
Any idea of what can be happening? This is seriously weird. Maybe I'm missing something about relays behaviour, but I don't know what can be...
