I have been fussing with my rear door popper for part of the day and I just can't seem to get it to work. It used to work just fine, but it just stopped one day. I even by-passed my in car wiring and wired a switch directly to my auxillary fuse block (with an inline fuse for safety) and still can't get it to trip.

I checked and I know that I'm getting power to the auxillary fuse block, through the fuse and to the switch. When I press the switch I'm getting power through it so I know it works, but I don't hear or see the solenoid trip. The one thing that I need to double check tomorrow is that I had the wire off of the rear door latch so the plunger in the solenoid was all the way down to begin with so if it DID work then maybe I wouldn't hear it because it was already bottomed out and wouldn't move. I'll try and hook the wire up so the plunger is up and see if the exterior wiring works that way. I'm also going to make darn sure that the ground is touching metal and not paint.

With all of that said, is it possible to fry a solenoid? Should I try and find another one to see if it would work?
