Default VTEC problem, clean VTEC selinoid?

ok so VTEC only engages 1st and 2nd gear 1/2 throttle, any time im WOT VTEC does not engage. Any solutions?

prolly gonna seafoam the car and see what that does. is there any way to clean the VTEC selnoid it self or if that would help any? Also this occurs after a fresh oil change so the oil is there....

sea foam doesnt do anything, its really just a wast of money. check your oil pressure
