FC auxilary port experts, need your help

need some help locally from anyone that knows alot about the 6pi system my s5 has. i've just about giving up on finding whats not making them activate. and i also don't want to wire them open.

i know my air pump and acv valves are working properly, and my actuators move freely, somethings just not making them open at all.

any local help would be appreciated! thanks!

Well since they're electronically controlled by the ECU on the s5 N/A, have you tried swapping in a different ECU? Its a longshot but maybe its that easy of a fix.

Download the shop manual Henry. Then bring the car over to my house and we can diagnose it together.

i don't think its the ecu since i've been thru 2 different kinds with the same problem, think its something to do with the solenoids

so i noticed on my middle manifold that there is two nipples, and one of it is plugged, and the other is open.

the open one has vacuum, and when i try to give it a plug too, my car idles crappy. so my question is is there supposed to be a hose connected to each of them?

heres a picture of what im talking about, its hard to see, but its the circled ones
