Question to BA 777 pilots or engine maintenance engineers

I am a 747-200 pilot.
We have a "ground or flight idle" on our JT9D engines.
Solenoid control...

Do you have the same feature on your engines...?
Is there a stupid $2.50 solenoid for the idle selector...?
Do you have a "GND IDLE" warning light...?
Are these solenoids prone to failures...?

Thanks for the info.

Happy contrails
