Just run the standard ECU output tests. When the test comes to the WGFV's
turn, you'll hear the valve click on and off if it's working.
You could also remove it from the car, and hook a small tube up to it. Apply
voltage using a battery or a cigarette lighter accessory thingie. I can't
remember if it's open (passing flow) when energized, or when not energized,
but one way, you'll be able to blow air through the valve, the other way,
air will not pass.
