Active Engine Mount Solenoid
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
The active engine mount system comprises:
- Two engine mounts
- Active engine mount solenoid
- Connecting vacuum pipes.
Active engine mounts optimally dampen and isolate the vibrations and noises generated by the engine in every combustion engine operating mode. This noticeably enhances comfort for the vehicle occupants.
The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) controls the vacuum operated engine mounts via an active engine mount solenoid. The active engine mount solenoid is operated at idle speed, and are switched off when the engine speed goes above a predetermined threshold. The threshold is engine speed dependant. The active engine mounts are switched off when the engine speed increases to 1250 Revolutions Per Minute (RPM).
