There are a number of problems (mostly in the original part!) The svgs are dimensioned in px (probably at 72DPI) which if edited via current Inkscape will be the incorrect scale (because current Inkscape is 96DPI.) After that the internals of the part are also not correct. The breadboard svg got modified somehow between the original part

and your new part

that may be parts editor objecting to svg elements it doesn’t understand. To fix this I started with the original part and corrected all the problems (and created a new schematic entirely) which results in this part, which is now correct:

[Plastic Solenoid Valve-fixed.fzpz](https://forum.fritzing.org/uploads/short-url/g1uJ3RD4TLoYdyBhsYGmLk4QGDw.fzpz) (9.1 KB)

which looks like this:

Most (perhaps all) of what I did is described in this parts making tutorial

> Someone in this forum post requested help to fix up a part. So while doing that I decided to record what I needed to do in order to fix the part to provide a tutorial to create new / fix broken parts. If you start from the Tarjeta S4A EDU.fzpz file posted in the above thread, you should be able to recreate my improved part posted in the same thread. I started by loading the original part in to Fritzing, that indicates breadboard is (at first look anyway) pretty good, but schematic and pcb are…

it along with this set of videos applies to the current versions of Fritzing

schematic was made with this Inkscape extension:

> Hi all! I have been working on an extension for Inkscape to create rectangular schematic symbol .svg files for use in Fritzing. I think I created a useful tool to speed up creation of schematic symbols, and now I want to share it with the community. It’s available on github: [https://github.com/revolt-randy/Fritzing-Schematic-an-Inkscape-Extension.](https://github.com/revolt-randy/Fritzing-Schematic-an-Inkscape-Extension.) To install: In Inkscape, the edit menu → user preferences → system will have an option for ‘User extensions’ - allowing you to open the folder to…
