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?

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)

      Ha ha ha! I know those feels mate I've finally got the garage cleared enough that next weekend I'll do some actual work on my car (hopefully). Unfortunately garage isn't usable after 10am at the moment That said, I've done a lot of work this weekend on helping finalise a friend's Production Race car. Full started Christmas Eve. We're down to about 8 tasks on the list, including "get a wheel alignment". Sometimes it's just easier working on someone else's car or project than our own stuff 😛

      Ha ha, ended up going it alone.  I just sent it (in a very nervous fashion).  Once I'd released the locks and it didn't automatically start spinning out of control i felt a bit more confident.   It made some loud sounds (cracking and creaking noises) when I first spun it which got the heart rate going again!  I couldn't bring myself to leave it tipped on the side.  I feel a bit more comfortable having back right side up while it sits there. I'd get angry with your last point but you're 100% correct! 😅 Even yesterday I managed to distract myself at numerous times to make a bracket to fit an LED flood light off the back of the house and fix my sons pushbike.  There were other little taks nibbling at my brain for the rest of the day too...

      Probably one of the more nerve wracking experiences of my entire life! 😂😂 The balance (centre of gravity) is out still but in a direction that gives me comfort!   It's quite bottom heavy still meaning it takes a bit of muscle to rotate it.  The plus side of that is that it wants to to go back to upright.  Better that than wanting to go all stranded turtle on me!

      hmmm that's not ideal. This is a pretty new engine right, will be interesting if your engine guy has any theories about causes
