Adding IB constraints breaks UIPickerview - ObjC - ios

Question

I have a view built with interface builder. Whenever I add a pickerview (either via IB or programmatically) on top of the existing IB view, the pickerview will not work. The elements within the pickerview won't scroll properly... the spinner wheel always bounces back to the '0 position' & nothing can be selected. Also, the wheel no longer 'clicks'... and the wheel moves in horizontally as well as vertically... but nothing can be selected.
I even tried to add the pickerview to an actionsheet... same result.
If I completely remove ALL of the constraints in the view, the pickerview works as it should.
Any ideas on what's causing this and/or how to fix?

Here's the code:
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
self.tabBarController.tabBar.hidden = YES;
[self.view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
letterArray = #[#"",#"A",#"B",#"C",#"D"];
UIBarButtonItem *pBtn = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"picker"
style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain
target:self
action:#selector(launchPicker:)];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = pBtn;
}
- (void)launchPicker:(id)sender {
self.viewForMainPicker = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 400, [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.width, 220)];

UIPickerview *mainPicker = [[UIPickerView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.width, 220)];
UIFont *arrowfont = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:40];
UIFont *titlefont = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:28];

}
