Wiring Solinoid to Digital I/O

Hey All,

My i'm trying to wire up a spike relay to a digital in and out, but it happens to only go in one direction (remember digital is only a 1 or a 0), im thinking i should split a PWM cable and set the black as a shared ground between two digital i/o, and the red going to one digital i/o and the white going to another digital i/o. Is this right?

Whats your opinion? Or if i'm totally wrong, whats the correct method to wiring a spike relay to a digital i/o?

Thanks!
