Ground pin 85 and take a live +12 volt to 86 with the relay in your hand. You should feel it and hear it click. If it doesn't then your relay is bad, you don't have +12 volts or your ground is bad.
I did this straight off the battery. Fused power from the battery to the switch, then to 86, and grounded 85 where the battery is grounded on the fender. Didn't hear and feel anything when I pressed the button. I even held the relay against my ear and nothing. I'll take this back and pick up a new one. Just making sure that a 192 signal stat relay is the correct relay I need?
This is correct, which is essentially what you had in post #31. As v3bahumut said, if you have 12V (which it sounds like since when you moved it the dash lights came - check it with a volt meter to make sure), make sure you have a good ground. If not you probably have a bad relay. You can check it by providing the 12V to pin 85 or 86 and grounding the other one (85 or 86), as v3bahumut said. It's possible you have a bad switch, but it doesn't sound like it since you checked it with an ohm meter. My guess would be bad ground, then bad relay.
Is the relay a 192D or 192-4. The 192-4 is a 24V relay, which won't work (long shot, but worth a shot).
The relay I have says it's a 192D on the package, but only 192 on the relay itself. I've tried taking power straight from the battery and ground it to the ground on the fender just next to the battery. You can put the relay to your hear, and don't hear anything.
The relay is good. I grounded 85 to the fender ground, and ran fused power to 86. The relay would click instantly when power was applied.
That probably means your ground it bad (or the switch, or you're using the wrong contacts on the switch).

I'm taking this thing step by step. When I put my fused power on 86 and grounded to the fender on 85. There is no click from the relay. I'm going to pick up a new add-a-fuse today and give it another shot.

So the first post coming from the battery with a fuse on it I'm guessing? and the second is the add a fuse under the dash? It could be that your add a fuse location doesn't have a full 12V+, is flipped the wrong way, or just doesn't work. Take a multimeter as stated before and make sure you have the hot side of that fuse slot first while checking voltage at the same time with the vehicle in ACC and ON.
I must not have gone too wrong in the diagram this morning, thats what others have and you had one very similar at first. Just test every little piece of this wiring to make sure
