frequency valve - problem diagnosis

The FV is driven directly by the F/TCU, no relay.

Popular problems could be:

bad FV (never had one fail, so far....)
intermittent wiring between F/TCU and FV (it's an
Audi)
intermittent F/TCU FV driver circuit (known to fail,
but usually fails hard, I know how to fix this now,
BTDT)

Suggest installing % duty-cycle meter to FV input and
observe during operation. I use a combo O2/%
duty-cycle LED meter mounted via velcro to the dash,
works great! Has two rows of LEDs so both can be
monitored at the same time as they are related. I can
also switch the % duty-cycle to monitor the mixture
enrichment 6th EFI mounted between the IC and TB. Adds
enough fool for 100HP over and beyond what the stock
CIS can supply.

Cheers!
