Default dont know what went wrong?

i have everything wired up except the window switch wire to the #10 pin slot for the rpm wire, but even my purge wont work, im not sure what i did wrong. just for refference i lined everything up in this order:
BOTTLE>MAIN LINE>PURGE NOID>FILTER>NITROUS SOLONOID>FOGGER>MOTOR

i grounded the purge solonoid to the 13mm bolt that keeps the dash up on the passenger side and i powered it from the fuse box, when looking into the engine bay on the right hand side where the air tube is.

also my purge doesnt work, and i wired it in the same fashion in reguards to ground and power

Not all metal is necessarily a good ground.
You need to met a test light or better a volt meter.

Did you turn the key on? Sorry, I like to try the simple questions first.

You either A: do not have 12V or B: are not getting a good ground. First check if you are getting 12V and a good ground to the relay coil terminals (85 and 86). Next check if you are getting continuous power to terminal 30 on the relays then when activating the nitrous system you should see power on the terminal which goes to the noids.....The window switch is not wired in at all yet correct???

Easy way to check is with a test light. Sounds like a hot and/or ground problem.

If one circuit works and another doesn't then its not a ground spot issue and the area that factory uses def works for me. You'll get it and it will be simple probably!! Usually is!

It looks like he's pulling power from the fuse box? I'm thinking as somebody already said turn the key on.
