The only issues I had with getting my project to work was with trying to figure out the schematic of circuit and powering the solenoids with enough power to hold their valves open. I set up the circuit based on this schematic:




Every site I went to had pretty much the same diagram... but my solenoid wouldn't respond to the output signal from the pin, they would just stay open. I realized that the transistors i was using weren't for a high enough voltage to support the 12V current. This was a simply fix. Besides the leaking, and the transistors, I really didn't run into any problems.
