Re: Electrical Wiring on compressor

all of that is connected properly, at least as far as the diagram and black to black etc. The issue is likely going to be found to be a programming one - however, i'll describe the problem as it stands and get some help!

the spike has a light - it lights up. 12V incoming to the spike, none going out of the spike. When compressor is just hooked up to a battery, it does blow air. when hooked up to the spike, nothing.

We're stuck and can't figure it out - the programmer claims the code is set to enable compressor when buttons are pushed, but we push the buttons and nothing happens.

thanks in advance!
