Alky Control Install Issues......
Installing an Alky kit on my C5 TT build. I've got it all plumbed and wired. With the test button pressed I get a red light but no indication of pump running. I started the car and pushed air into vacuum block. Kit is set to come on at 3 psi and I get a solid red light crossing 3 psi. Still, no power to pump.
I need some troubleshooting tips here and I cant get a hold of the guys at Alky Control today.
My kit is run to switched power at the ignition relay.....I'm lost here. Thanks guys.

Is your knowledge of electricity and switches/ relays solid? I know nothing about this kit but most installs of anything electric comes down to connections and following instructions. If you know you don't have power (check with meter) go backwards from pump and look for where you are loosing power. Check your grounds also.
Sorry if I'm making this sound too simple, but sometimes a connector that looks good is bad and will be overlooked.
