There is such a thing as Infant Mortality where electronic are concerned. Being a new board does not mean that it could not fail. What might the problem be if not a bad valve or a bad board.
Speculation on resistance of the bi-metal coil and all are very hard to determine. Why not suggest a length of zip cord, 4 insulated mini alligators clips and connect them to the output of the board and the terminals of the solenoid and try measuring the voltages. Take it apart and put I back together with the zip cord running out of the case.
I'm reading a lot of it might be this or it might be that but no real info on doing the tests needed to see if this or that might be the problem. Checking the output of the board and if the power is getting to the solenoid would either identify or eliminate the board and the solenoid as problems.
