Default Vtec Inoperative

So for the last couple of days. I have been drivin my civic hatch, with an lsv. Sometimes I noticed that it didnt sound like vtec was engaging. Even though on my VAFC that I have it says ON, or OFF when its engaged so I know the pcm is telling it to work at the right time. But I just dont hear it. Would that be a selenoid problem?

Possibly, but i tihnk the light comes on from the pre-set rpm in the vafc. It could be a loose connection from the vafc harness at the ecu harness.
