There is a lot of discussion on possible problems here

it sounds like the vacuum valve that operates it all might be having a problem, I think most of the vacuum valves are all operated by applying an earth from the ECU to operate them as needed.

Thank you for the reply.Yes it appears that the issue is the earth.I assume as you say the the earth side of it comes from the Ecu, then the problem lies there ?

No could be the connector(s) itself, or a problem in the loom (less likely but not unheard of).
