Dosing method and solenoid valve for carrying out a dosing method

A solenoid valve comprising:

• a valve control,
• a magnetic drive, and
• a valve member,
• is wherein the solenoid valve is configured to carry out a dosing method for carrying out at least one dosing operation, comprising the steps:
• providing a switching signal to or from a valve control,
• providing a coil current from the valve control to a magnetic drive in dependence on the switching signal, wherein the magnetic drive is configured to move a valve member of a solenoid valve between a normal position and a functional position,
• determining a first start of movement of the valve member from the normal position to the functional position,
• determining an operating duration between the provision of the coil current and the first start of movement,
• determining a providing duration for the switching signal, wherein the provision of the coil current is carried out over a coil current duration which corresponds to a sum of the providing duration and the operating duration.
