I believe you have the relays pinned wrong in that diagram. Look here for everything you could ever want to know about relays

A relay question
Heres my issue and maybe an answer I'm redoing the wiring for the electric tailgate motor I have three switches on this circuit. I don't want the relays in the tailgate and i want all three switches to work. so if I remove two wires from the window motor and add relays anywhere in the switch circuit and run the output from the relays to the motor will all three switches work? I made a wiring diagram and I think it will work but I'm not sure. Does anyone know if this will work thanks

Burke, am I blind or is there no here??
Brian did you ever figure out what happens if two or more of those switches try to power the motor at the same time? Either in the same or opposite directions? I dont know if that would even matter.

For a second I thought I was going crazy!OOps forgot to add the link
If the relays are screwed to something solid you should be OK. Ideally you should use a socket for the relay so that all the pins are covered whether you are useing them or not. then it's just one plug
