Need assistance(smart people please)
 
Anyone have a picture of the solenoid valves? Or just a picture of under the extention manifold. Cause... It seems i have a problem...

Ok. here I go. My C.R.V. is stuck open allways. Well not anymore. cause i took off the vaccum hose. Anyways, there is constant vaccum to the chargre relief valve(The hose under the A.B.V. off the air box). And also im noticing erratic boost. Sometimes i'll get Dayum boost WOT and other times i get crappy boost. Im also noticing some smoke from under the hood right after i push it really hard and im idling. I pulled off my extention manifold and noticed no vaccum leaks. I also noticed this solenoid valve that didn't look like the rest. It was not black and plastic like the others but it was metal and had that pill thing on the end where there is only one nipple for a hose, and get this, I pulled off the pill and it had a fuckin mitsubitwhatever emblem on it. If you don't bleieve me I'll pull of my fuckn manifold again and borrow a freakin digital camera and take a fuckin picture of it.

HUFF HUFF

Anyways, this "extra" solenoid valve was not on the rack of solenoids(The rack with all the solenoid valves under the vaccum net except for that one other solenoid valve which i've seemed to figure out it controls the charge relief) Know what this "extra" solenoid does?

Sometimes my car makes this wierd low hum usually when im decelerating. It didn't use to make it.

Well, right now my main problem is that my charge relief valve is always open.

Ok i found out its called the Three-way solenoid as seen in the picture.
What does it do? and why does it have a mitsubichi cap on the end?

It's the turbo control soleniod and that is normal for it to mount there.

DSM Makes tons of electronic components for several car manufatures. Apparently they are of good quality, though I have som reservations about that claim after having faced a few failed DSM products. The Turbo Control Solenoid is bar far the worst example of DSM inginuity, although I blame mazda more for ignoring the limitations of this component by placing it in a high heat location. I
