| Jan 6, 2020 at 3:18 | comment | added | haresfur | How did you wire the output side of relay for the pump? You do know you have to supply power to it, right?-) If you have a volt-meter, check that the power to the pump is switching properly. If you don't have a volt-meter, get one. | |
| Jan 5, 2020 at 16:13 | comment | added | Gerben | It sounds like everything on the Arduino side is working. It might be that you wired to water pump/valve the wrong way. | |
| Jan 5, 2020 at 8:51 | comment | added | Nizam mulk | Hey thanks for replying. The 9v battery is for powering the uno. The lights turn on when i turn it on. The relay also shows the moisture sensor is working as the lights on it turn on and off when I dip it into a cup of water. I'll try removing the relay and see if that helps thanks alot. If you could share a circuit diagram I will happily follow it :) | |

| Jan 4, 2020 at 16:28 | comment | added | Gerben | Those 9V batteries aren't ideal. They are low in capacity (don't last long), and can provide that much current. My guess is that the battery can't supply enough current to turn on the relay. Try removing the relay, and see if the led on pin 13 ('L' on the Uno) turns on/off based on the moisture on the sensor. | |
