[EnergyPlus_Support] Earth tube not working





Hello, 
My model with earth tube cooling is not showing any results from earth tube output variables.  The inputs I am using seem reasonable and I have read the reference Is this object suppose to connect to the HVAC with nodes? I can send the IDF if anyone is willing to take a look and have pasted the object below.
