How exactly do I check the gas valve. I have a digital meter, just don't know how.

I'm sending a pic. of the gas valve. 7 wires connected to it2 come from a xformer, and a relay. other 5 are all yellow, and numbered. I'm a robotics engineer, and am lost with this. But it can't be that difficult

Checked the orange wires going to the gas valve. 0 volts. but there is 24 on the X-former. 1 wire goes from the x-former directly to the gas valve. the other orange one goes to what looks like a high voltage capacitive discharge box (alot like a coil on a car) then a yellow wire comes from the other side, and goes to 1 of 3 terminals on the thermocouple. It also goes to a terminal on the gas valve(jumpers on to the thermocouple.
THANKS FOR HELPING ME OUT. The 2 yellow wires on the left side of the valve(1 goes to the HV discharge box, & the other one goes to 1 terminal of the thermocouple. The 3 yellow wires hanging down on the 2nd. pic. go to the thermocouple. I've unbolted it from the side of the furnace shell.
