Throttle Position Sensor

The throttle position sensorresponds tothe accelerator pedal
movement. Thissensor isakind ofpotentiometer whichtrans-
forms thethrottle position intooutput voltage, andemits the
voltage signaltothe ECM. Inaddition, thesensor detects the
opening andclosing speedofthe throttle valveandfeeds the
voltage signaltothe ECM.
Idle position ofthe throttle valveisdetermined
by
the ECM
receiving thesignal fromthethrottle position sensor.Thisone
controls engineoperation suchasfuel cut.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

The fuel injector isasmall, precise solenoid valve.Whenthe
ECM supplies aground tothe injector circuit,thecoil
in
the
injector isenergized. Theenergized coilpulls theneedle valve
back andallows fueltoflow through theinjector intotheintake
manifold. Theamount offuel injected depends upontheinjec-
tion pulse duration. Pulseduration isthe length oftime the
injector remains open.TheECM controls theinjection pulse
duration basedonengine fuelneeds.

This system automatically controlsengineidlespeed toaspecified level.Idlespeed iscontrolled
through fineadjustment ofthe amount ofair which bypasses thethrottle valveviaIACV-AAC valve.The
IACV-AAC valveopens andcloses (except forEurope andIsrael), orrepeats ON/OFF operation (for
Europe andIsrael), according tothe signal sentfrom theECM. Thecamshaft positionsensordetects
the actual engine speedandsends asignal tothe ECM. TheECM thencontrols theIACV-AAC valveso
that engine speedcoincides withthetarget valuememorized inECM. Thetarget engine speedisthe
lowest speedatwhich theengine canoperate steadily. Theoptimum valuestored inthe ECM isdeter-
mined bytaking intoconsideration variousengineconditions, suchasduring warmup,deceleration, and
engine load(airconditioner, powersteering andcooling fanoperation).

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
IACV-AAC valve-Except forEurope andIsrael

The IACV-AAC valveismoved byopen andclose signals from
the ECM. When theopen signal issent tothe valve, theamount
of air that willflow through thevalve increases. Themore air
that flows through thevalve, thehigher theidle speed. When
the close signal issent tothe valve. theamount ofair
decreases.
