A couple of months ago I knew nothing about electronics, but I have learned a lot. Of course, there is obviously a lot I don't know so I was hoping someone could help me out.
I was hoping to test out my countertop brutus 20 this weekend, but have had issues with my control box. I have followed this diagram.

The pump outlet is working well. The PID is working. The LED light on the on the SSR is lighting when the "out" light on the PID is lit. The problem is that the element never fires. I have checked and double check the wiring. The element heats when I plug it directly into the wall.
Could it be the SSR? Any way I could test it to determine the problem? Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Jesse
