Figure 1 - Black Converter Solenoid
A popping noise may be emitted from the (PEDES) A.I.R. management valve. This noise may occur due to one (1) of two (2) possible causes, it may be
caused by a missing solenoid plug on the black converter solenoid (see Figure 1).
The other possible cause for noise is a missing "O" ring between the black solenoid and the air management valve (see Figure 1).
