Co2 solenoid valve continuously letting co2 through

Featured Replies

Hi guys,

my co2 solenoid is continuously letting co2 through it even when it is off.

Does this mean that the solenoid is buggered or the valve is buggered?

I can hear the tick of the valve moving.

Thank you

Sounds like the sealing face of the solenoid has failed or has something under it. If you have the confidence, strip it and check.

If the seal face has a crack, line or dimple on it, then the seal usually rubber has failed. You may, or may not be able to get a replacement from the solenoid's agent.

Good luck...

I'd say take it to your local engineering shop if you're not comfortable enough to go messing about with its innards. They should be clued up enough to fix it and may even have the required parts on the shelf (or at the very least know where to source them from)
