The problem is that I don't always get the voltage (small wire) required to engage the relay. I need to determine why I sometimes don't get this voltage when I turn the key.

Could this be only a problem at the ignition switch or could it be something else (the computer or something)?
It's either the ignition switch directly, or a relay. A wiring diagram is needed.

Best Regards,
Jim
