I have already tried reversing the transistors.

The Arduino can only handle a few milliamps of current so the transistors are used like electronic relays to trip the regular relay in the car.

I did verify the pin out with the data sheet of the part
With the part I have the collector is grounded and emitter goes to harness
Is that wrong?
