Have you had time to check out the old solenoid and valve, to see which one failed and why?.
I must know these things

Haven't checked yet in detail but I can say that both the new and the old solenoid are normally closed when the power is off. So I know the old solenoid was not stuck open.
There was no varish or other deposits in the area. It was very clean. Under the gasket for the transfer valve assembly, in the transfer case is a screen. It was pretty clean also. Just a few grains of something stuck on it. Subaru does not sell the screen as a part.
Also no metal shavings or other foreign material.
Now if I can only find some rumble strips with a launch ramp into a really hugh snow bank to try out the AWD
