    Bill,

    Do you have a multi-meter? If you do, measure the voltage to the operating strap of the relay and verify that is 240 VAC.

    If it is, then check the voltage at the output of the relay and see if it is 240 VAC.

    Also, make sure that the solenoid is picking and latching properly.
