- Lube the solenoid O-rings.
- Install the solenoids with a twisting motion.
- Install the detent arm and bolt.
- Check the connector plate terminals with a #43 (2.25 mm) drill bit. There should be a slight drag on the shank. If there is no drag replace the connector plate.
- Align the solenoid valve pins to the connector plate.
