chuckk Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) Hi,I have an issue with my computer not turning on the boost solenoid. i understand the AUX 3 grounds one side of the boost solenoid while the other sider provides a 12v (switched on) supply. I did the AUX 3 TEST ON with the software and with my dvom i verified that the signal wire was indeed getting grounded. Then other wire has 12v so there is no reason why it should not work.The solenoid itself works if you unplugged the connector and apply battery voltage to it....Also tried to set the frequency at 33Hz since it's the valve specsthanks for the help.cheers Edited August 9, 2016 by chuckk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 Hi Chuckk,When driving low (to ground) Aux 3 is able to supply 2 amps, this is normally plenty for a boost solenoid. When you set Aux 3 to test on, and put a multimeter across the two terminals of the boost solenoid what voltage do you read?Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckk Posted August 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 hi scott,thank you for your response. I have managed to make it work just by switching to a different aux output. It was simply not clicking with aux 3...aux 8 is working perfectly fine now.Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
