Default nitrous all the sudden doesnt spray anymore?

well for some reason, it doesnt want to spray..When i have the nitrous activated, i dont see any gains or pressure loss?

i looked at my fpss and noticed a loose conection, tighten it, and still same problem!

what could be wrong here?

empty bottle just kidding, had to throw it out there.

are your solenoids clicking at all? do you have a window switch? is your fpss set too low? is your bottle open? is there power at the switch? is there power at the fpss? is there power at the solenoids?

well before when i would clear the lines, i would turn the bottle off and empty out the rest of the lines by spraying!

Dont have a purge yet!

and when id id run yes the bottle was closed, but usually it would still spray if it was closed..

im going to go open it and test it out when i go to the gym and see if thats the problem!

i'd say that the bottle being closed probably has a lot to do with you not getting any nitrous into the engine.

magic chicken made some good suggestions, check all that stuff out and get back with us.

you don't have to cut the wire. you should be able to hear the solenoids click when they are activated, either by your WOT switch or your push button.

hopefuly thats it, easy $4 fix if it is. I had a relay go bad and it melted all up. also though i had a relay problem once and it turned out to be my ground for the relay had come loose.

I would start by double checking all your wiring, especially the grounds. If that looks good, then you need to bypass the FPSS and the window switch and test the solenoids to see if they click when activated.
