F4 Key on Midi Controller not playing.

My F4 Key on my m audio Keystation 61 does not seem to be playing anything in Logic. Which is strange because when I used my keyboard in other apps it works perfectly. Even stranger its just the F4 note because when I change octaves, other F notes work perfectly fine on that key and then F4 on another Key doesn't work. Ive gone through Key commands and its not in use so now Im stumped completely.

You have inadvertently assigned the F4 key to a controller function. Go into the Controller Assignments window (option-shift-K), select the assignment of the F4 key and delete it. Make sure Learn Mode (bottom right of the CA window) is OFF before closing the Controller Assigments window. Blue button means Learn mode is ON. Grey button means Learn Mode is OFF.
