Yeah. He means they look like electronic vacuum tubes… little metal cans.

Clean them by unbolting the pair and washing off. I've never done it, but the shop manual warns that they can't be disassembled.

Replace them with known good used (cheap option) or buy new. Search classifieds for someone with spares or take your chances at junkyard.

Check the wiring and connections also, if someone previously performed a job near that area. Could be a free fix there.

Also, did this problem occur after you performed some job? Perhaps put in a different ECU, etc?
