Hey guys

Some knob - i.e G.A Garage sent me a Blitz SBC 3 BoostController which was totally fried... Im thinking the solanoid could be fried as well!!!

Anyone know if any power is sent to it to do such a thing? or most if not all the power was sent to the screen??

Im able to get a screen and new controller for a decent price still to hold me even I guess.. Was wondering if its worth it concidering the solanoid could be rooted.

I know its quite a general question but someone who knows how they work might be able to help .. if its all mechanic and no electrical movements involved it still may be ok.

If I could, how would I check?

great ... guess ill have to meet up with the guy n see if it works or not .. will the soli make any sound when its functional? or will i be able to blow straight through it? anything I could do to make sure its functional .. i suppose a multimeter would help but dont want to crack it open

easy way to test the coil is to just power up the two coil wires one pos and one neg. if you here it click then it has switched. to further test this you could then blow through the line in hole and see if you get air through when it is on and none through when it is off.

u should be able to check with a M-Meter,

u should be able to disconnect the coil from the actuator... then power it up and put something metal in the middle of the coil,

When it's activating you should be able to feel it through the peice of metal (a small screw driver would be ideal)

    • I totally couldn't do the whole kids taking up my life thing! 😮 I find it bad enough doing 45 hours in 4 days, and then fitting normal adulting life into the other 3 with no kids! As for my mates race cars, they're AMG C63 setup for production racing. The original is what has just been stripped and a brand new shell built. The original is then going away to have some panels straightened, then it will be put back together again. Then there's a third that will shortly head off to have a roll cage put in, then build it up too. And potentially a fourth to be built too... Oh, and he has two Renault Clio D class production cars, ha ha. And when he's not racing them in the Australians and QLD production championships, he's been racing one of Chaz Mostert's Lamborghini's in GT4. They just won GT4 at the 12 hour in the Lambo. We're pushing to finish the new AMG as it has its first round (and potentially its first shakedown/outing) in under w weeks for Round one of QPC, and that round is really the shakedown to make sure it's all good for the Bathurst 6 hour, which I'll be at too. Ha ha ha Working on my project is different to his, I slowly tinker and work ways to make things happen on a shoe string budget. Hes in a good position that he has a massive workshop full of parts and tools, ha ha. He also looks after me. When his air compressor died, he just needed it working, so bought himself a new one and gave the old to me. Sand blaster unit too, and a 20t pressing. And pretty much all the shelving in my shed too as he upgraded all of his (the stuff he gave me is the expensive black Bunnings heavy duty stuff)!   I enjoy working on his stuff. No decision paralysis, and anything that's needed parts wise is just there. Plus, then I get to be hands on at the track in real racing, not just club day stuff.
    • I know which one I'd prefer to have in my garage, and which one I'd actually drive as intended
    • Yeah mate, no probs. Just swap the email addresses?
    • I definitely agree with you there - I never click on content for cars I would never ever be able to get or compete with/against/be seen next to. Seeing a MX5 compete with a FD RX7 will make people upset though, for sure. Even in 2.5L Turbo form which is pretty grass roots. (or at least as grass roots as classic cars can be) Yes we're all classic car owners now.
    • Wonder what the cause is, but here's hoping it's nothing too serious.
