I wanted to test my variator today, so I did the test that was mentioned on this site.
(The solenoid has a permanent 12v on one of the pins it but the other pin is only grounded by the ECU when the variator is to be actuated. This means that you can test the solenoid by grounding one of the terminals with the engine running, briefly touch a wire between the chassis and the solder on the cap that is supposed to be grounded by the ECU, the engine should almost stall)
When I did this the only thing that happened was that the engine was ticking/rattling. The noise stayed, and I got this list of fault codes:
p0135 O2 sensor
p0141 O2 sensor
p0155 O2 sensor
P0443 EVAP circuit
P1654 V.I.S control
P1653 Variable camshaft timing control
Did I just ruin the ECU? Or is there a fuse or relay that is causing this problem?
