Boost Control Solenoid Quit Working

I've been running with a boost solenoid for the past 8+ months now hooked up normally closed with the diode 6 inches from the coil. After driving around last night I realized I wasn't pushing full boost and it was stopping at the WG spring pressure instead. I checked my wiring and I've still got 12v to the coil with the key on and boost control is still enabled in SManager. Is there any way to check the PWM output of the ECU or maybe anything to look for on the board that may have gone? Thanks!!

Make sure you have not installed the diode backwards.

You can set the boost control activation pressure to 0 kPa and it should work at idle.
