Electrical Problems

Are you sure it is actually using more than 3 amps?
or
Switch the wire to the backup power pin and try it.

also.. make sure you have protection diodes on the master relay and starter relay.

Because the starter relay has a power lead instead of a ground to flip it, where does the other end of the diode connect to?

[brianjohnson]

err... or does it? I'm a little confused by the diagram in aeroelectric. When I installed everything I put the diode on the master solenoid, but I ended up leaving off the starter solenoid diode because I couldn't quite figure out if it was the same as the master or not.
