The hydraulic selector unit has various solenoid valves and electronic pressure actuators.
Functional description, see BMW Technology:
TIS -> Document -> SI Technology -> SBT Number
The solenoid valves are 3/2-way valves, i.e. valves with 3 connections and 2 switch positions.
The EDS convert electric current into a proportional hydraulic pressure and thus activate hydraulic valves with their corresponding switch elements.
Two types of electronic pressure actuators are fitted:
In all cases, it is advisable to delete stored adaptation values after a repair.
