^ With solenoid de-energized, confirm that the solenoid inlet (bottom) port holds vacuum and the outlet (top) port vents vacuum (use hand vacuum pump/gauge or equivalent).

^ Energize solenoid (use battery voltage and note wire harness connector polarity) and confirm that an applied vacuum signal passes from the inlet to the outlet port.

^ Does the solenoid pass both functional tests?
