Having added code tags to the data as well, I see that file1 has a lot of whitespace (spaces and/or tabs) in the fields. If you're using -F to specify a very specific field separator (,), then the whitespace in those fields will become part of the fields themselves, so an exact match with fields in the other file which do not have the exact same whitespace won't work.
Assuming the logic works, a simple option would be to remove any whitespace directly before, or after a comma in file1.

I've written an awk script to compare two fields in two different files and then print portions of each file on the same line when matched. It works reasonably well, but every now and again, I notice some errors and cannot seem to figure out what the issue may be and am turning to you for help.
