The electrical connection is for a solenoid which controls a valve to an air pocket inside the mount. The ECU controls the effective strength of the mount by switching on / off what is basically an air spring. There's an SSP on them somewhere - I'll see if I can find it.

The D4 actually has a separate computer just to control the active engine mounts
