IGNITION TIMING AND CONTROL FOR CURRENT CARRYING TIME
MULTIPORT FUEL SYSTEM (MFI)13A-37
2. Spark-advance control and current carrying
time control
.
[During start]
ECM initiates ignition at fixed ignition timing (5° BTDC) syn-
chronized with the crankshaft position sensor signal.
.
[During normal operation]
After determining the basic spark-advance based on the intake
air volume and engine speed, ECM makes compensations
based on input from various sensors to control the optimum
spark-advance and current carrying time.
List of main compensations for spark-advance control and current carrying time control
.
[Control for checking ignition timing]
During basic ignition timing set mode for M.U.T.-III actuator test
function, sparking is done with fixed ignition timing (5
° BTDC)
synchronized with crankshaft position sensor signal.
CompensationsContent
Intake air temperature compensationCompensation is made according to intake air
temperature. The higher the intake air temperature
the greater the delay in ignition timing.
Engine coolant temperature compensationCompensation is made according to engine coolant
temperature. The lower the engine coolant
temperature the greater the advance in ignition
timing.
Knocking compensationCompensation is made according to generation of
knocking. The greater the knocking the greater the
delay in ignition timing.
Stable idle compensationCompensation is made according to change in idle
speed. In case engine speed becomes lower than
target speed, ignition timing is advanced.
Delay compensation when changing shiftDuring change of shift, sparking is delayed
compared to normal ignition timing to reduce
engine output torque and absorb the shock of the
shift change.
Battery voltage compensationCompensation is made depending on battery
voltage. The lower the battery voltage the greater
the current carrying time and when battery voltage
is high current carrying time is shortened.

GENERAL INFORMATION
FOUR-WHEEL ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (4ABS)35B-3
MAIN COMPONENTS AND FUNCTIONS
.
Parts nameNo.Functional description
SensorWheel speed sensor1Outputs the frequency signal in proportion to the
rotation speed of each wheel to ABS-ECU.
Magnetic encoder for
wheel speed detection2The wheel speed sensor is a pulse generator. When
the magnetic encoder for wheel speed detection (a
plate on which north and south pole sides of the
magnets are arranged alternately) rotates, it outputs
frequency pulse signal in proportion to each wheel
speed.
Stop light switch3Outputs the signal indicating whether the brake pedal
is depressed or not through ETACS-ECU to ABS-ECU
via the CAN line.
ActuatorHydraulic unit4Drives the solenoid valve using the signal from
ABS-ECU, and controls the brake fluid pressure for
each wheel.
ABS warning light5Informs the driver of the system status by illuminating,
flashing, or turning off the warning light according to
the signal from ABS-ECU.
Brake warning light6Used as the warning light for the parking brake, brake
fluid level, and EBD control. Informs the driver of the
system status by illuminating or turning off the warning
light according to the signal from ABS-ECU, ETACS or
combination meter.
Data link connector7Establishes the communication with scan tool.
ABS control unit (ABS-ECU)8Controls the actuators (described above) based on the
signals coming from each sensors.
Controls the self-diagnostic functions and fail-safe
functions.
Controls diagnostic function (Compatible with scan
tool).
