A quick update !!! So good news and not good news.. Connected each solenoid in turn to the power on the connector and then earthed the other side. Each solenoid gave a healthy clunk and didn't show any sign of drawing excess power. I made sure they all had a good few 'clunks'. I thoroughly cleaned all the connectors and one of them did look a bit suspect - but only a bit. Then I connected them all up and went through the same process for each one (whilst having the other 3 connected). All good no problems . Cleared the ECU faults then went for a 'good drive' whilst delivering food to my Mum. All good no problems. ECU came back with all the oxygen sensor faults which is what I expected as I didn't want to connect the oxygen sensors until I can confirm how the solenoids are behaving . Anyway I couldn't make the fuse blow , so I've now connected 3 of the 4 oxygen sensors back and so far so good. I'll do the 4th one in the morning . its nearside , downstream and the exhaust was too hot to connect it! Hopefully not jumping the gun, but I'm not expecting anything suspect when I connect the fourth one.
So, assuming the 4th sensor doesn't cause a problem , I haven't really fixed anything other than cleaning connectors and 'working the solenoids'. The other thing I noticed is that the error code for the last oxygen sensor states Bank 2, and I thought Bank 2 was offside according to everything I've read. As always Guru feedback is appreciated
Thanks for Keith's recommendation
