Default Cleaning boost solenoid

Could someone please advise me of the best way to clean a 2 port boost solenoid on a classic turbo 2000 please, I'm a bit of a novice at this sort of thing.

Thanks in advance

Matt

Remove hoses. Spray carb cleaner into orifices.

Attach test mode connector. This cause the BS to cycle. Spray while it cycles.

Does not take much to clean it out. Let it dry , re attach hose.

Test plugs are under the dash. Two blue plugs, put them together and turn ignition on but do not start the car. Should hear fans kicking in etc.
