    Not sure what's the problem might be.
    I have oem honda s2000 start button and don't use relay at all.
    Just three wires hook up.
    Power, Ground and third wire that taps on to the ignition wire(Black/White).
    Mine works perfectly.

    Just check fuses and Wires.
    Key to "ON" position, one after the "ACC".
    Then, Clutch ---> Button.
    Maybe one of those simple mistakes.

    You might have the same problem as mine did.

    When i hooked it up...i heard a slight "pop"

    That pop was a burn coming onto the board...open the entire assembly up and see if theres any brown marks on the board.

    but make sure you're actually getting power to the thing first.

    Are you using thoes wire taps? If so, you might want to check you connection to the black/white wire. I know that when I installed it, it was kinda a bitch it get a good connection tapping into that think wire.... hope this helps
