Thanks to the folks over at CounterSpace Garage for helping me out with a great tune so far and helping me trouble shoot my issue! pokedoku
At the moment, we’ve reached a hiccup, my VVT won’t enable. I’ve been scouring the forums for the potential issue(s) and potential solutions. The new motor was purchased brand new from Subaru and installed by a reputable tech and from my understanding, everything was running fine (I was a dummy and didn’t monitor anything via ECUtek). What are the odds that my VVT sensors could have gone bad in the last 950 miles or so? I’ve tried all the tricks I’ve read on the forums from past folks with the same issue and no matter what I do, the VVT remains at = 0. I saw a comment by CSG Mike to completely replace the gears but at my current skill set, that seems out of my wheelhouse.
I would love any advice to figure how to fix this and if it’s just a bad sensor perhaps versus a bad cam gear? Zach at CSG has already confirmed this isn’t a tune issue and has to be a mechanical issue!
Thanks in advance!

You can use a multimeter to check the resistance of the VVT solenoid. If the resistance is too high or too low, the solenoid is likely faulty and needs to be replaced.
