Valve, Active Exhaust: Description: Description
The SRT performance exhaust systems use two electronic active exhaust valves located underneath the rear cradle, between the mufflers and resonators.
The electronic exhaust valves are actuated by the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) and have been calibrated to refine the tailpipe and cabin exhaust noise while mitigating exhaust drone.
The electronic active exhaust valves are comprised of two elements: The electronic actuator and the mechanical valve.
Each electronic actuator (3) has a transmission spring (1) and single wire harness connection (2) which connects to the vehicle harness above the rear cradle.
The electronic actuator can be serviced separately from the exhaust system.
Each mechanical valve is welded into the exhaust pipe and must be serviced with the exhaust assembly.
There are three studs (1) used to fasten the electronic actuator to the mechanical valve.
The mechanical valve contains slots (2) which must align with the electronic actuator transmission spring.
