Boost Solenoid High Pitch Noise

Hey guys. I?ve noticed some high pitch noise/buzz/whine sound coming from my boost solenoid. I can hear it anytime the electrical system of the car is on. Even just unlocking the car with the engine off for example.

Car is FBO with JB4. I purchased the JB4 used off the forum. It?s the older harness that has the red power wire that should go to the 50amp fuse, however the previous owner modified it so the red wire incorporates into the boost solenoid connector like the newer style harness.

Anyone experience noise this before?

Sometimes they make noise and have no issues. They are a known failure part so wouldn't hurt to have a new one on hand. Could also disconnect it and reconnect it and see if it stops.
