    Bench testing DCCV

    Thanks joe again, so i got to this part, and couldnt figure out if it was asking to probe from the dccv connector to the back of the climate module in the car, or the 26pin connector, or probe the points with the connector attached to the module. I only tested the points from the dccv connector...

    Do we have a part number for the starter solenoid only?

    Yes, ive once already rectified the one click issue by loosening the wires on the solenoid and cleaning like you said, problem is, it was rusted and corroded to where the nuts wont come off, they're now spinning in the solenoid. So now i cant even get the nuts off to do any inspection or real...
