snow performance alky kit problem

hey guys i just installed an alky kit on the evo. i ran all the wires and hooked everything up according to the diagram. the leds turn on (pump and safeinjection) and i **THINK** i have the boost solenoid hooked up like it shows in this picture below:
https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/at...69957boost.jpg

well im not sure how it works but its hooked up to the wire coming off the safeinjection and the other wire is hooked up to the chassis ground but i dont think its working correctly. (should cut the boost to 16psi when it activates right?)

and the main problem or at least i think its a problem is that when the pump turns on the alky goes through the line just fine (i tested it before i put it in the car) the green and the yellow(safeinjection) LED's turn on but then the yellow ones turns off only for a second though but then it turns back on and stays on. does that mean there is somethin wrong with my kit or does it always do that? anyways any help would be great. thanks

btw. the pic below is the diagram that i used to hook up the kit.

what size nozzle are you running and what safeinjection model do you have?

Check the grounds too (from gnd socket in connector to frame with multimeter), especially from SI. An open ground may trigger failsafe fault (solid yellow light) and perhaps screw up the solenoid signal as well.

Also, what style SI solenoid are you using, 3 port or 2 port?

well the power and ground wires for both the pump and the SI are connected together and hooked up to power and groud together. the grounds are hooked up to the rear strut tower and the 12v are connected to a ing. 12v source. im not sure what model i have. i dont think i can adjust the timing with it. the nozzel i think is the smallest one they offer (300hp?). i just got the kit from a guy on here and he ordered the nozzel from them. i will take some pictures of the kit when i get home later tonight.

ok i fixed it. i filled the tank up all the way and now the yellow light doesnt turn on. it does turn on when i go past the full psi mark, is this normal? and im not sure i have the boost solenoid hooked up right. when i do get that yellow light it doesnt do anything to the boost. i tested it (hooked up 12v and it opens and i can blow through it) but it doesnt seem to make the boost limited to the wastegate pressure (which i think is 16psi right?). anyone have any idea's?

The LLI will not lower boost, its just a warning, the safeinjection will lower the boost, is that what you are referring to?

if you have the wastegate upgrade solenoid you need to have the SafeInjection for it to work, otherwise I have no idea how you have it wired up...

the recall was for a leak inside (all ove 12 units were recalled of which all are accounted for and being taken care of) and why would you have to go and start a post like that when you obviously don't know anything about the issue at hand...
