Hi guys. Im from Mexico and have a class 12 buggy. I recently got the oportunity to buy a pair of Fox 3.0 Live Valve X2 internal bypass from a Polaris RZR Pro R, and i want to install it on my proyect but i dont know how much voltage and amps the electrovalve needs to work.
I need help with that, if any of u guys know more about these shocks or already have experience with that please help me, i dont have acces to the original ECU because here in mexico this kind of stuff is very very expensive, but i know that the shocks can work with a regulated voltage imput without an ECU.

Hope that someone can help me.

From a friend at Fox-

They are controlled by current, not voltage. 0A is full stiff, .88A is full soft. About 12v is right, but you don't need to worry too much about voltage.

I will attach a photo of the shock for better information

Interesting. So the control must vary the resistance to the control wiring since it sounds like they run constant voltage and it's probably conveniently near normal "vehicle" voltage.

So... If I connect it directly to the battery, it will fully open and the shock will be full soft right?
And if a want to regulate the compression i need to install a potentiometer or something like that to vary the opening of the valve?
