Valve Solenoid

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Lincoln Navigator and 2017 Ford Expedition. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The VDM uses a PWM output to control the valve solenoid. The solenoid opens or closes the valve depending on the amount of current supplied by the VDM. The higher the current, the more the valve is opened, resulting in a higher level of damping.
