Reply to Akai APC20 Traktor 1.2.7 LEDs PLEASE HELP

I am in the middle of making an Akai APC20 mapping for Traktor 1.2.7. Everything has worked fine, Traktor recognises the APC20 and allows me to map all the control i want to it that part is perfect but i am unable for the life of me to work out how to map the LED lights properly.
For example i want to be able to press a button for Play/Pause and want that button to be green whilst playing a track and red when the track is not playing. So i added a Play/Pause input mapped to the specific button which works fine. Then for the LED to work ive added an output also for play/pause and mapped it to correct note. Ive set controller range min 1 - max 1 and ive set midi range to min 1 - max 3 with invert on.
Now here is the strange part, if i press the button on my APC20 it plays/stops the deck as expected but the light doesnt work properly but if i press play/pause with my mouse the LED work correctly on the APC20 even the colors work correctly but as soon as i touch the actual button the LED no longer work.

Any help would be truly appreciated and i will do my best to share the solution with as many people as i can

Thanks
