    Vtec solenoid failure?

    Anyone know what vtec solenoid failure would cause? This is one alarm I have on the motor. Happened at 125hrs and I have a whopping 150 on the motor. Curious what I am in store for with this. What issues or signs I need to loom out for. Also found out warranty is 5yr 300 hrs just incase some of you did not know this so soon people could blow through the warranty in a year or 2.

    2015 Honda 250 good thing i bought it in 2016 but getting warranty work done is not a simple task.

    watch this video, if the TEC solenoid fails it will only hurt power, not cause damage to the engine that I can see. It just wouldn’t producer the power because the cam wouldn’t lock up, or would stay locked up.
