Vanos solenoid replacement
I'm getting an "intake actuator circuit open" fault code and the car has markedly reduced performance. I pulled resistance across the exhaust vanos solenoid and it's 12.2ohms, the intake solenoid is 11.7ohms. The slightly reduced resistance across the intake solenoid could indicate damage to the varnish in the coil... but it's not as marked of a difference as I was expecting.
I'm going to try and actuate the solenoid with a 12v power supply to see if it's functioning properly. The plug seems fine. Is there anything else I should be looking at?
