think your wiring is messed up...what color wires you got at relay and i'll go check my truck.

I'd post wire orientation, but my g.p.r. went out, so now ALL my wires are on AIH relay..

Remember, the solenoid is just a "Remote Switch". Sound like yous is just bad, with the contacts welded together...
