Operation Description
ECM (5) detects opening (depressed extent of pedal) of the accelerator pedal based on signal voltage of the APP
sensor (1) and using that data and engine operation condition, it calculates the optimum throttle valve opening. On the
other hand, it detects the throttle valve opening based on the signal voltage of the throttle position sensor (3) included
in the throttle body (2) and compares it with the above calculated optimum throttle valve opening. When there is a
difference between them, ECM controls the duty ratio (100% – 0%) according to this difference to drive the throttle
actuator (motor) (4) included in the throttle body. When there is no difference, ECM controls the duty ratio to about
15% to maintain the throttle valve opening. In this way, the throttle valve (17) is opened and closed to achieve the
optimum throttle valve opening.
In this system, as the throttle position sensor and APP sensor have 2 sensors (main and sub) each, highly accurate
and highly reliable control and abnormality detection are assured. Also, when ECM detects an abnormality in the
system, it turns off the throttle actuator control relay (8) to stop controlling the throttle actuator. When the throttle
actuator control relay is turned off, the throttle valve is fixed at the opening of about 7° from its completely closed
position (default opening) by the force of the return spring and open spring included in the throttle body.
This throttle body is not equipped with IAC valve for idle speed control. Idle speed control is done by the throttle
actuator which opens/closes the throttle valve.
Electronic Control System Description
The electronic control system consists of 1) various
sensors which detect the state of engine and driving
conditions, 2) ECM which controls various devices
according to the signals from the sensors and 3) various
controlled devices.
Functionally, it is divided into the following sub systems:
• Fuel injection control system
• Ignition control system
• Electric throttle body control system
• Fuel pump control system
• Radiator cooling fan control system
• Evaporative emission control system
• EGR system (if equipped)
• Oxygen sensor heater control system• A/C control system (if equipped with A/C)
• Camshaft position control system
• Immobilizer control system
• Controller (computer) communication system
Especially, ECM (Engine Control Module), BCM (Body
electrical Control Module), combination meter, ABS /
control module, keyless start control module (if equipped
with keyless start control system), TCM (Transmission
Control Module) (for A/T model) and 4WD control
module (if equipped) intercommunicate by means of
CAN (Controller Area Network) communication.

It is computed by reference pulses from the camshaft
position sensor.
DESIRED IDLE (DESIRED IDLE SPEED, rpm)
The Desired Idle Speed is an ECM internal parameter
which indicates the ECM requested idle. If the engine is
not running, this number is not valid.
MAF (MASS AIR FLOW RATE, g/s, lb/min.)
It represents total mass of air entering intake manifold
which is measured by mass air flow sensor.

This parameter represents a measurement of barometric
air pressure and is used for altitude correction of the fuel
injection quantity.

deterioration.
SHORT FT B1 (SHORT TERM FUEL TRIM, %)
Short term fuel trim value represents short term
corrections to the air/fuel mixture computation. A value
of 0 indicates no correction, a value greater than 0
means an enrichment correction, and a value less than 0
implies an enleanment correction.
LONG FT B1 (LONG TERM FUEL TRIM, %)
Long term fuel trim value represents long term
corrections to the air/fuel mixture computation. A value
of 0 indicates no correction, a value greater than 0
means an enrichment correction, and a value less than 0
implies an enleanment correction.

DTC P0300 / P0301 / P0302 / P0303 / P0304: Random Misfire Detected / Cylinder 1 / Cylinder 2 /
Cylinder 3 / Cylinder 4 Misfire Detected
S6RW0D1104039
System Description
ECM measures the angle of the crankshaft based on the pulse signal from the CKP sensor and CMP sensor for each
cylinder. If it detects a large change in the angle speed of the crankshaft, it concludes occurrence of a misfire. When
the number of misfire is counted by ECM beyond the DTC detecting condition, it determines the cylinder where the
misfire occurred and output it as DTC.
