Hi! Any advice on how to check/trace signal path for MP feed Solenoid?

According to the service manual, the MP feed solenoid is connected to connector # J209 on driver PCA.

Thank you for an informative reply. I do have the service manual and sort of know where SL1 connects. However, I need to trace signal path to check if signal is present that actuate the said solenoid. On my driver PCA the connector J209 has no output when a signal is expected.

Driver PCA is very simple electronics, use a multimeter to isolate possible defect, starting from solenoid connector and heading to the connector to DC controller.  Tracing digital signal on the DC controller is way to complicated.
