If a solenoid valve isn’t working, check the following common issues:

• Power Supply: Verify the coil is receiving the correct voltage and that electrical connections are secure. Check for blown fuses or tripped breakers.
• Coil Issues: The coil might be burnt out or damaged. Check for continuity with a multimeter (if safe to do so and you’re qualified). A humming sound without actuation can indicate a problem.
• Pilot Pressure (for piloted valves): Ensure adequate pilot pressure is available if it’s a pilot-operated valve.
• Stuck Spool/Plunger: Dirt, debris, or wear can cause the internal spool or plunger to stick. Sometimes, manually actuating the valve (if it has an override) can help identify this.
• Incorrect Installation: Ensure the valve is installed in the correct flow direction.
• Blocked Orifice/Ports: Contaminants in the fluid can block small orifices within the valve.
• Mechanical Damage: Inspect the valve body for any visible damage.

Always ensure the system is depressurized and de-energized before attempting any troubleshooting or maintenance. If unsure, consult the product manual or a qualified technician.
