Set Appliance State:

Isolate Mains Power to appliance as per TOPs P4
Set Multimeter to Resistance Set meter to measure resistance
Disconnect main solenoid wires
(purple and brown connectors) from the gas valve
Disconnect connector ST16 from the PCB

Measurement:

Test 1:
Check resistance across pins 7 & 8 (brown wires)
and 9 & 10 (violet wires) on ST16 to the
corresponding connector for the gas valve.
Expect continuity (zero resistance)
on each of the 4 wires.
Test 2:
Inspect the general condition of the harness and plugs and
check the resistance of each wire to a suitable earth point.
Expect greater than 1M Ohm on each wire.
