Well would have been nice to hear the clicking sound instead of the music...😐

A cool way to check the resistance, I mean those two wires, nice one.

@@pedroburja on some solenoid valves, filter is separate so you can see the spool valve moving back and forth, but on others that filter is located on the valve, hearing the ticking sound would be enough to say that valve is working.

Amigo buenas tardes. Si el sensor marca 16 esta dañado?

@AutomotiveDiagnosis 3 ай бұрын

Hi my friend. 16 ohms is still ok.

@Kavika-xh1qj 7 күн бұрын

16 está bien. Indica que mínimo 7 máximo 17. Dentro de esos variantes, todo bien.

Does it matter what cable goes to what pin like witch is positive pin and witch is negative? Just don’t want to fry anything

@AutomotiveDiagnosis Жыл бұрын

It's better to connect in a proper polarity. although reverse order on a solenoid that does not have any controller inside will not fry it.

@nonameduser801 4 ай бұрын

And how to know the polarity of the vvt pins?

That way of checking the actuator with a 12 volt battery is wrong...I did this and both of my actuators have passed away, my car runs like crap now. They are feed from the ECU with a lower tension around 8 volt so connecting them directly to a 12 volt source will cook them up

This method is recommended in many workshop manuals and it shouldn’t make any problems if it’s performed correctly and in a very short time. Although this video is general and doesn’t refer to any specific car, so for any specific car workshop manual must be checked for the specifications and relevant repair procedures.
