I am having issues with my PID setup. I wired it like in this diagram above, terminal strip and all with a couple of exceptions. I did not use the first indicator light by the switch in the diagram, nor did I install the 2nd fuse prior to the lead pot. The temperature reads fine from my thermocouple, but I think I may have a wiring issue between the PID and the lead pot. The indicator light that is supposed to light up when the pot is on stays on really dim and flickers, but the plug for the lead pot doesn't work. I will try to get some voltmeter readings this morning when I get home from work. Also, I have read enough threads about the PID's to make my head swim, but I haven't seen mention of the settings for the controller. I read the auberins manual on my PID and I am so confused what I'm supposed to setup or change. I THINK I made the change for the set temp to be 100 to check and see if the indicator light went off when it reached that temp in hot water, but the light never switched off. Also, I looked at the following diagram and it appears the connections on the upper part of the SSR are reversed. could this be the issue?
I am using the following
