Abstract: The invention relates to a solenoid valve with a coil body, a magnet core, an armature with armature guide and a yoke. In a first variant there is provided between the yoke and the armature guide a pole tube which has first means for producing an electrical contact with the armature guide and second means for producing an electrical contact with the yoke. In a second variant the solenoid valve also has a fixing plate which is disposed on the side of the solenoid valve on which the armature guide projects out of the yoke, the armature guide projecting through the fixing plate. According to the invention, in this variant a contacting element which produces an electrical contact between the fixing plate and the armature guide is provided between the fixing plate and the armature guide.
