Inhibitor Switch (Automatic Transmission Only)
Inhibitor switch senses position of transmission select
lever, indicating engine load due to automatic transmission
engagement. Based on this signal, ECU commands ISC motor to increase
throttle angle, maintaining optimum idle speed.
Intake Air Temperature Sensor
Incorporated in airflow sensor assembly, this resistor-based
sensor measures temperature of incoming air and supplies air density
information to ECU.
Motor Position Sensor (MPS)
Incorporated in ISC motor (or separate unit on some models),
senses ISC motor plunger position and sends electrical signal to ECU.
Oxygen (O2) Sensor
Located in exhaust system, generates an output voltage.
Output voltage varies with oxygen content of exhaust gas stream. ECU
adjusts air/fuel mixture based on signals from oxygen sensor.
Power Steering Oil Pressure Switch
Detects increase in power steering oil pressure. When power
steering oil pressure increases, switch contacts close, signalling
ECU. ECU commands ISC motor, raising idle speed to compensate for drop
in engine RPM due to power steering load.
TDC Sensor
See CRANKSHAFT ANGLE & TDC SENSOR ASSEMBLY.
Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)
A variable resistor mounted on throttle body. ECU uses
voltage signal received from TPS to determine throttle plate angle.
Vehicle Speed Sensor
Located in speedometer in instrument cluster, uses a reed
switch to sense speedometer gear revolutions. ECU uses gear
revolutions to determine vehicle speed.
OUTPUT SIGNALS
NOTE: Vehicles are equipped with different combinations of
computer-controlled components. Not all components listed

FUEL SYSTEM
FUEL DELIVERY
Electric fuel pump (located in gas tank) feeds fuel through
in-tank fuel filter, external fuel filter (located in engine
compartment) and fuel injector rail.
Fuel Pump
Consists of an impeller driven by a motor. Pump has an
internal check valve to maintain system pressure and a relief valve to
protect the fuel pressure circuit. Pump receives voltage supply from
Multi-Point Injection (MPI) control relay.
Fuel Pressure Control Solenoid Valve (Turbo Only)
Prevents rough idle due to fuel percolation. On engine
restart, if engine coolant or intake air temperatures reach a preset
value, ECU applies voltage to fuel pressure control solenoid valve for
2 minutes after engine re-start. Valve opens, allowing atmospheric
pressure to be applied to fuel pressure regulator diaphragm. This
allows maximum available fuel pressure at injectors, enriching fuel
mixture and maintaining stable idle at high engine temperatures.
Fuel Pressure Regulator
Located on fuel injector rail, this diaphragm-operated relief
valve adjusts fuel pressure according to engine manifold vacuum.
As engine manifold vacuum increases (closed throttle), fuel
pressure regulator diaphragm opens relief valve, allowing pressure to
bleed off through fuel return line, reducing fuel pressure.
As engine manifold vacuum decreases (open throttle), fuel
pressure regulator diaphragm closes valve, preventing pressure from
bleeding off through fuel return line, increasing fuel pressure.
FUEL CONTROL
Fuel Injectors
Fuel is supplied to engine through electronically pulsed
(timed) injector valves located on fuel rail(s). ECU controls amount\
of fuel metered through injectors based upon information received from
sensors.
IDLE SPEED
Air Conditioner Relay
When A/C is turned on with engine at idle, ECU signals ISC
