Checking the wiring harness. Intermittent faults may occur in connection with short circuits and open circuits. Jiggle the wiring harness at several points and in several directions to locate any problems in the wiring, including intermediate connectors. Observe the multimeter, scan tool or test lamp during the check.

Important

The control module is probably damaged as well if one of the coils is short-circuited. If a new valve is fitted now, it will be ruined straight away. Consequently, in case of a short circuit, the valve and the control module must be replaced at the same time.


Change fuse 24 if necessary.
