I measured the resistance and found the rears are about 3.8 ohms and the fronts are about 4. One of my rears is bad (open). I can control the shocks with 12v but I suspect this is not the entire picture. The info that Tob found states low "Holding" power consumption (< 1w) in comfort mode. So we need an initial higher voltage ( 12v @ 3 amps) to activate the solenoid and then you would drop the voltage down low to hold the solenoid in that position. Doing the math if we energize with 12v and then drop to about 2v ( @ 0.5 amps), to hold the solenoid position, we would achieve a power draw of about 1 watt which is the stated design target.
