Default solenoids sound like a sprinkler system

They click on and off when the system is activated . The solenoids 12v. suppy are wired together and the grounds are to their brackets. Anyone had this problem?

sounds like a bad ground to me. try grounding them out to a different location and if the problem persists maybe some of the guys on here can direct you elsewhere. what are you using for system activation? window switch? progressive? WOT switch? if the ground isnt the issue i would start checking into your activation method.

Exactly, what are the controllers?... if you have a progressive controller, then they should sound like that. If not, is the relay clicking the same way?

The problem was the n20 solenoid. It locked up today.

Was about to post to check out your solenoids. If the problem persists, check your relay, sometimes they are wired wrong or take a dump.
