COMPONENT PARTS
EVAP Control System Pressure Sensor
INFOID:0000000006256476
The EVAP control system pressure s ensor detects pressure in the
purge line. The sensor output voltage to the ECM increases as pres-
sure increases.
EVAP Canister Vent Control ValveINFOID:0000000006256477
The EVAP canister vent control valve is located on the EVAP canis-
ter and is used to seal the canister vent.
This solenoid valve responds to signals from the ECM. When the
ECM sends an ON signal, the coil in the solenoid valve is energized.
A plunger will then move to seal the canister vent. The ability to seal
the vent is necessary for the on board diagnosis of other evaporative
emission control system components.
This solenoid valve is used only for diagnosis, and usually remains
opened.
When the vent is closed, under normal purge conditions, the evapo-
rative emission control system is depressurized and allows “EVAP
Control System” diagnosis.
EVAP Canister Purge Volume Control Solenoid ValveINFOID:0000000006217671
The EVAP canister purge volume control solenoid valve is used to
control the flow rate of fuel vapor from the EVAP canister. The EVAP
canister purge volume control solenoid valve is moved by ON/OFF
pulses from the ECM. The longer the ON pulse, the greater the
amount of fuel vapor that will flow through the valve.
Fuel InjectorINFOID:0000000006217672
For the fuel injector, a high pressure fuel injector is used and this
enables a high-pressure fuel injection at a high voltage within a short
time. The ECM is equipped with an injector driver unit and actuates
the fuel injector at a high volt age (approximately 65 V at the maxi-
mum).
Fuel Level SensorINFOID:0000000006217673
The fuel level sensor is mounted in the fuel level sensor unit.

Operating Chart
ICC Brake Switch & Stop Lamp SwitchINFOID:0000000006217679
Stop lamp switch and ICC brake switch are installed to brake pedal bracket.
When the brake pedal is depressed, I
CC brake switch is turned OFF and stop lamp switch is turned ON.
ECM detects the state of the brake pedal by those two types of input (ON/OFF signal).
ECM transmits ICC brake switch signal to ADAS control unit via CAN communication line.
ICC Steering SwitchINFOID:0000000006217680
ICC steering switch has variant values of electrical resistance for each button. ECM reads voltage variation of
switch, and determines which button is operated.
ECM transmits ICC steering switch signal to ADAS control unit via CAN communication line.
Ignition Coil With Power TransistorINFOID:0000000006217681
The ignition signal from the ECM is sent to and amplified by the
power transistor. The power transistor turns ON and OFF the ignition
coil primary circuit. This ON/OFF operation induces the proper high
voltage in the coil secondary circuit.
Intake Valve Timing Control Solenoid ValveINFOID:0000000006217682
Intake valve timing control solenoid valve is activated by ON/OFF
pulse duty (ratio) signals from the ECM.
The intake valve timing control solenoid valve changes the oil
amount and direction of flow through intake valve timing control unit
or stops oil flow.
The longer pulse width advances valve angle.
The shorter pulse width retards valve angle.
When ON and OFF pulse widths become equal, the solenoid valve
stops oil pressure flow to fix the intake valve angle at the control
position.
