Wtf? I Need Help

[harwood39]

Ok. This is really getting old. I fixed the vtec pressure valve, and now im throwing a code for the vtec solinoid(code 21). I need help figuring all this shit out. I cant get this code to go away.

just swap in ecotec!

pull the head, give it to me then light your car on fire and collect insurance.

i only have liability on my car. any way to fix this, i just want a new fucking car.

[ticklemedaly]

sounds like a wiring or ecu problem

[darkelvis]

wiring problem, definately. Swap heads with me before you get rid of the car.

Ok. I just need a new solenoid. Some how it shorted. I checked it with a multimeter and the resistance is 0.01

[darkelvis]

check your wiring to the solenoid too.

[harwood39]

wiring is fine, solenoid is shorted out.

[darkelvis]

Solenoid's don't short out unless something else goes wrong. Eg bad wire, overloaded circuit, etc...

Here is a diagnostic aid. hope it helps.

i think it shorted when i was rewiring the ecu after disconnecting the VAFC. Wiring is fine, checked it. Its the solenoid.
