It does! It should only close if inlet temps start to rise v high. The idea of it is a safety thing, it's just like an electronic bleed valve. When you have 2 stage boost, all u are doing is having it open through a switch, and removing ecu connection.

It does sound like the amal isn't working. It could be the solenoid is stuck, not just connection. With the engine off, if you put 12V across it, it should click. If it doesn't, either get another, or it's bleed valve time.
