Went out tonight to test the nitrous.......
Well I went out tonight to test out the nitrous set up. Right before I tested I made sure I wasn't leaking anything and had the bottle pressure at 1000psi. So I get out to run it. I toggle the arming switch and get ready to be sucked into the seat. I hit the push button switch. VROOOOOOMMM, felt like a motor pull. Toggle the arming switch the opposite direction, maybe I had it backwards. Hit the push button, VROOOOOMMM, still a motor pull.
So I narrowed it down to my wiring skills and relay. Hot wire is hot, relay clicks when toggled by switches, but no power at the other two leads on relay.
Here is my expert CAD drawing for my wiring setup....
Hot wire is hot as well as hot wire lead on relay.
Toggle Switches lead on relay is also hot.
Other two leads on relay have no power anytime.
Also tested another relay, still had power only at the same leads.
Im sure it is a problem I have it wired, Probably the way my switches are configured?

I think I know what the problem is, this pic shows how the relay is supposed to be hooked up....
Pin 30 - 12v Power.
Pin 85 - Earth.
Pin 86 - Switch.
Pin 87 - Switched power out #1.
Pin 87A - Switched power out #2.
What does "earth" mean?
Which "switched" lead should my switches be connected to?
