Can you show a screenshot, I might be able to help If I saw exactly what you were doing.

Maybe restart and make a simple piston mechanism to figure out how it works.

It sounds like you don't have a block on both sides of the piston.

You need to put a block, or anything at the other side of the piston. The piston doesnt work if it doesnt have a block on the end.
