Default Noob question

If I arm my system and then click the WOT switch should I be able to hear the solenoid opening? I cant hear a thing. I can hear a click with the purge though

Sounds like that should work. Just curious, what window switch are you using and how is it wired to get your RPM?

Im using the nitrous outlet dual digital. Its wired from the coil pack, which i guess runs over to the PCM. I didnt wire it up so I cant tell you and exact answer. We were going to tap into the PCM but Nitrous Outlet said to do it that way

Dont set it to Zero, I think thats messes up the system. Just give them a call to find out how to test, most people will just disconnect the lines from the intake and put them in a bucket and then hold the car at activation RPM and press the WOT switch. But yes the Window switch is keeping you from testing it, Its only doing its job, it dosnt know that the car isnt running it just reads 0 RPMs and obviously wont let the system activate.

you can set it to zero and activate it real quick. that is how it says to check the system with the microedge. just make sure you do it for a second because there is nothing cooling the solenoids and they will burn up.

he's not using a microedge, there were posts about the nitrous outlet unit locking up trying to use this technique. They had a revised version that wasnt affected by it, so depends on which one he's using
