    No. The solenoid control valve is either actuated or it's not. The magic lies in how the oil is ported thru it in either position. I think somewhere here I posted a generic Youtube video which animates how it works. I'll see if I can find it.

    Edit:

    See if these help.

    Yes that makes sense now that Im thinking about it more. Initially I thought it was a three position spool valve, but that is unnecessarily complicated.

    For future, the below screen shot shows the polarity
