    Hey, P1121 code so I replace my valve. Code came back, so I tested the old valve and it did its thing. Now I have two working valves. The electrical connection looks great. Could it have a short? Any thoughts or suggestions...
    Thanks, gregwco.

    Did you bleed all the air out of the coolant loop?
    Where did you get the replacement valve? Is it an OEM product?

    Sorry, a lot of hours at work. Yes, the coolant system is clear of air and full. Dorman product, I have never had a problem with them in the past.

    There were others that have installed Dorman products and they ended up being defective.

    It has been functioning. The heater works fine. About 400 miles since the swap.
