nitrous trouble shooting

whats up, i finally got my nitrous hooked up, and when i turn the switch on to arm it, the light comes on as if it has power to the system, but it doesnt work., im running a nx wet shot, i have it to a wot switch and a window switch, is it possible that one of them is bad? i even pulled the nozzle out of the intake and held the car at 3500 rpms and pressed the WOT switch manually with the system armed to see if anything sprays out..which it didnt. Im lost to as what could be the promblem other than a bad switch, maybe the relay?? how can i trouble shoot that? i dont know anyone have any ideas? thanks in adance

Brandon

It would help if you could post up a diagram of how you have everything wired together.

You'll get it

try putting the hot wire off the solenoids directly onto the battery to verify that they click open. If they do then you need to go over your wiring again and triple check to make sure everything is wired correctly per NX's diagram... Electronics can be a PITA..
