STRIPPING AND CLEANING THE

SOLENOID

Remove the three rubber grip screws from the right hand side of your

grip frame and unplug the solenoid and BBSS from the PCB. Remove

the two frame screws allowing you to remove your frame, Inline regulator

and hosing set-ups from your Etek2 so that you are left with the solenoid

exposed (SEE FIGURE 5.60).

Using a small Philips head screw driver, undo the two solenoid retaining

screws (SEE FIGURE 5.61) and remove the solenoid from the minifold taking

care not to loose the gasket from the face of the minifold.

With the solenoid detached from the minifold, use a small flat instrument

to gently lever the two solenoid retainer clips off the solenoid (SEE FIGURE

5.62). This will allow you to split the solenoid into two and access the

spool valve.

Using a pair of needle-nose pliers remove the spool from the front section

of the solenoid (SEE FIGURE 5.63). Note that it is the flat side of the spool

valve facing you when you remove the spool valve. It may be necessary

to also remove the front cap of the solenoid to push the spool out, if it

cannot be pulled out with the needle nose pliers.
