    Take a hammer and 'tap' the soleniod with the handle. This normally works unless it's totally '******ed'!
    Was a '93 3B, Dont ask now tho......

      As above "tap" or rather "hit" the thing and usually gets it going.

      Ive had this happen before on previous dubs and you'll probably find that it will work most of the time, but occassionally not and needs some friends persuasion.
