iLogic User Parameters not affecting certain parts

I am trying to use iLogic to suppress or show a feature in multiple parts from an assembly.

I first started with creating a list item user parameter in all of the parts named "Color"

I then set a rule in all of those parts to update the feature using select case.

Part 1:

Select Color
	Case "White"
	' ***Extrusion11***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion11") = False
	
	Case "Midnight/Midnight"
	' ***Extrusion11***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion11") = True
	Case "Midnight/White"
	' ***Extrusion11***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion11") = True
	Case "Sandstone"
	' ***Extrusion11***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion11") = False
	Case "Tan"
	' ***Extrusion11***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion11") = False
End Select

Part 2:

Select Color
	
	Case "White"
	' ***Extrusion7***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion7") = False
	
	Case "Midnight/Midnight"
	' ***Extrusion7***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion7") = True
	
	Case "Midnight/White"
	' ***Extrusion7***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion7") = True
	
	Case "Sandstone"
	' ***Extrusion7***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion7") = False
	
	Case "Tan"
	' ***Extrusion7***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion7") = False
	
End Select

Part 3:

Select Color
	
	Case "White"
	' ***Extrusion14***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion14") = False
	Case "Midnight/Midnight"
	' ***Extrusion14***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion14") = True
	Case "Midnight/White"
	' ***Extrusion14***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion14") = True
	Case "Sandstone"
	' ***Extrusion14***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion14") = False
	Case "Tan"
	' ***Extrusion14***
	Feature.IsActive("Extrusion14") = False
	
End Select

These Rules all work and were tested by forms in the individual part files.

In the assembly file with all of these parts, I created a rule that set the user parameter in the part = to the assembly user parameter of the same name.

'Color
Parameter("Part1", "Color") = Color
Parameter("Part2", "Color") = Color
Parameter("Part3", "Color") = Color

The only part that updates is Part1. The others do not reflect any changes. This happens even if I comment out all of the other parts in the assembly.

I am unsure why only one of my parts is updating in the assembly yet they all work the same in their individual part files.

My extrusion naming scheme was off by 1 and I was changing the wrong feature. This has been fixed.
