Boolean not evaluating correctly?

So I'm trying to do a school project (a simple leap year tester) but my boolean statements do not seem to be working. My code looks like:

    public class Year{

      int year_input;



public Year(int year_input){

}


public boolean isLeapYear(){
    // your code here 
    if (year_input % 4 ==0){
      return true;
    }
    else{
      return false;
    }
}
}

And it has to work with the included class:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class LeapYearTester{

public static void main(String[] args){

    Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in);
    System.out.println("Please enter a year");
    int year_input = input.nextInt();

    Year theYear = new Year(year_input);

    if (theYear.isLeapYear())
        System.out.println("That's a leap year!");
    else
        System.out.println("That's not a leap year!");
}
}

But for some reason, but console is saying that all years are leap years, even if they're obviously not. False Leap Years (Picture)

Any help?

In your constructor, you need to assign the parameter to your instance variable. 

public Year(int year_input){
    this.year_input = year_input;
}
