I have a Lennox G26 furnace. I have a pressure swich that is activated by an exhaut fan to start the blower in my furnace. What contacts do I hook the wires from the pressure switch to in order to activate the furnace blower. Do I use the R and G or do I use the R and C? My A/C unit is wired to the C and Y. Is this correct as well?

Jumping green and common won't make the blower come on.

When in a/c your t-stat make a connection between R and Y and G.

R=24vac
G=call for blower
Y=call for a/c

The exaust fan has nothing to do with the AC, the board in the unit should turn the fan on in ac mode from the t-stat. the pressure switch doesn't actualy make the circuit for the blower.
I may not be getting your question but a relay powered with Green and common will activate for a fan call from thermostat. I don't know the G26 spacificly.

Be good to your fellow man not nice there is a difference.
