Welcome to the forum!

Are you using the built in delay node?

The title and category of function node would suggest that the problem may be a [cancel settimeout](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/clearTimeout) or a [cancel setinterval](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/clearInterval) issue.
