I’m having this exact same problem I already replaced the cover assembly and both sensors are good just not making contact w the actuator . Did you fix it when you replaced the actuator?

@Imthefelix3 yes replacing the unit with a new one will fix the problem in this case.

@@elitemobileautoelectric7782how long is it to replace the actuator? The timing chain has to come off correct? Is this something a mechanically inclined person can do themselves? Cheers

[@elitemobileautoelectric7782]

@Mark-mb3tw the timing does not have to come off. The actuator fairly comes off quick and easy maybe a 10min job.
