Is there a difference between the 2 solenoids ??? Could I swap them with each other and it run correctly
I replaced both of them because I was getting the P0027 code I’m not sure if I should’ve bought two different ones I bought 2 of the same exact ones … I’m still getting the same code
I have the p420 code on Ford focus 2012, I have already changed oxygen sensors, will it be possible to solve the error by changing the exhaust valve?
Thank you! this is what I needed
Have vid for 2018 f 150 3.5
I got that cod but my motter is ticking
How do you tell which one needs replacement? I have the code P0012
I’ve order 3 of these my ford focus is from the uk shipped to jamaica it still leaks oil i’ve now ordered a used original part as i’m assuming maybe the new ones are the issue? Please advise.
How do you know if its the intake or exhaust solenoid that needs to be replaced?
Hi chief, I just replaced the valve cover gasket after everything was put back together, all of a sudden I got the check engine light on so I scanned it and is giving me code P0013 ( B Camshaft position actuator A control circuit / Open Bank 1). Is that code related to that selenoid you replaced??
Same for ford transit?
I would replace both at the same time.
What is the difference between the VVT and VCT solenoid on the ford focus?
Does this include the 1.0 EcoBoost engine?
Jesus fucking christ. Does anyone know where I can find a video on replacing the damn solenoid gaskets? Just the damn gaskets it's like looking for a fucking needle in a cornfield
Quick question: Should I have my battery unplugged before replacing the solenoids, or does it not matter?
help, I have a Ford explorer 3.5 xlt and the camshaft chain is cut and my question is if this is why my engine no longer works, or simply change this chain, help me with your knowledge!!! thanks for your videos
ayuda, tengo una Ford explorer 3.5 xlt y se corto la Cadena del árbol de levas y mi duda es si por esto mi motor ya no sirve, o simplemente cambiar esta Cadena ayúdame con tu conocimiento!!! Gracias por tus videos
Only replaced the one? Why? If one failed at that amount of miles, you want to do everything all over again when the other fails? Do both while you are already there..
When I did mine I couldn't help but think that a relatively minor design change would have allowed them to be replaced without removing the valve cover. They already stick through it. A gasketed bolt could have gone right through the cover to the head.
Helped me out a lot! Thank you sir!
What seal do you need to get for the solenoids?
Do you have a vid for a 2015 ford explorer the VCT.
This is a tutorial from the shop and you did not even show how to replace the gasket and the seals for the variable valve timing solenoid. Shame….
