ForceMode2D.Impulse not working

Hi! I have a problem on my 2D game adding some force of type impulse to make the rigidbody jump and I can’t find out what I am doing wrong.Here is my code:

public void Jump()
    {
        if (isGrounded == true)
        {
            characterBody.AddForce(new Vector2(0, jumpForce), ForceMode2D.Impulse);
            Debug.Log("jump");
        }
    }

This is working great, it even displays the “jump” message. I tried making the “jumpForce” variable ridiculously high to make sure I beat the gravity with no success. I tried to change the type from “Impulse” to “Force” and I noticed that the “Force” type is working but this is not what I need.
This is the rigidbody in the Inspector:

This has been on my mind for hours and I can’t figure it out. Can you please help me? Thanks!

Hi guys! I managed to figure out what the problem was. I was not paying enough attention to my code. The problem was in my FixedUpdate function where the velocity of the rigidbody was constantly being set and that would interfere with my Jump function. I can’t believe that something that simple caused me a lot of trouble.
