I assume there were no misfire codes before changing magnets.
check connectors on magnets to see if they are properly connected. (or are not cross connected)
could you try to put the old magnets back to see if cylinder misfire codes go away?
if there were no misfire codes before, and if we assume that new magnets are good ones, the timing is being off somehow.

Correct, no misfire codes before I put in the new ones.

double check all the connections and they are good.

anyway to reset the timing using the icarsoft mb II scanner?

thx

Replaced driver intake magnet (inboard) back to the old one, no cyl codes and no check engine. Seems to be ok, thanks!

You are welcome!
glad that you resolved it.

maybe the new magnet was defective or something.

What do you mean by magnets? I thought they were solenoids. You mean 1560501065?

Magnets and solenoids are (incorrectly) used interchangeably on this site.
