Hi,
I'm getting a "fast flickering" ECU light.
Turns out its a Code 59 - which is:
59 Intake Manifold Valve 1 Voltage Low
I think this is the rear multiram control valve - but any ideas?
It's only started doing it today and that was after I opened her up after a cold start. The light now comes on as soon as the car is started & its defo flickering - with the light being on 95% on and 5% off.
I've had the plenum off to the the cam covers so suspect that I might have disturbed something.
Thanks

Valve 1 is the rear one, correct.
If you've had plenum off, its an easy one to forget to plug back in. I'm sure we all have at some point :-[

A voltage low error would be a short circuit as far as I know. If it was disconnected he would get a "voltage high" error.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but that's my experience and logic so far.

Not necessarily, but would need to check it...

I think the low side of the solenoids are switched by the ECU so voltage low = disconnected.
(ECU expects 12v on the line, grounds it to energise solenoid).
