Reduction Valve
WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 6 other vehicles, including the 2008 Suzuki Reno, 2008 Suzuki Forenza, 2007 Suzuki Reno, 2007 Suzuki Forenza, and 2006 Suzuki Reno. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The reduction valve reduces the line pressure with which the downstream solenoid valves and pressure control solenoid valves (EDS) are supplied. This makes it possible to use smaller solenoid valves.
The line pressure comes from the oil pump and flows to the reduction valve. The inlet port to the reduction valve will be blocked and line pressure will be maintained at the appropriate level.
