System

Outline

Sequential Multiport Fuel Injection

• An L-type SFI system directly detects the intake air volume with a hot-wire type mass air flow meter.

• The fuel injection system is a sequential multiport fuel injection system.

Electronic Spark Advance

Ignition timing is determined by the ECM based on signals from various sensors. The ECM corrects ignition timing in response to engine knocking.

ETCS-i Electronic Throttle Control System-intelligent (See page-43)

Optimally controls the throttle valve opening in accordance with the amount of accelerator pedal effort and the condition of the engine and the vehicle.

• A linkless-type is used, without an accelerator cable.

• An accelerator pedal position sensor is provided on the accelerator pedal.

• A non-contact type throttle position sensor and accelerator pedal position sensor are used.

VVT-i

Variable Valve Timing-intelligent (See page EG-48)

Controls the intake camshaft to an optimal valve timing in accordance with the engine condition.

Air-fuel Ratio Sensor, Oxygen Sensor Heater Control

Maintains the temperature of the air-fuel ratio sensor or oxygen sensor at an appropriate level to realize accuracy of detection of the oxygen concentration in the exhaust gas.

Air Conditioning Cut-off Control

By turning the air conditioning compressor ON or OFF in accordance with the engine condition, drivability is maintained.

Cooling Fan Control (See page EG-52)

Radiator cooling fan operation is controlled by signals from ECM based on the engine coolant temperature sensor signal and the condition of the air conditioning operation.

Fuel Pump Control (See page EG-53)

• Fuel pump operation is controlled by signal from the ECM.

• The fuel pump is stopped when the SRS driver's and front passenger's airbags are deployed.

Evapotative Emission Control

(See page EG-54)

The ECM controls the purge flow of evaporative emissions (HC) in the canister in accordance with engine conditions.

Approximately five hours after the ignition switch has been turned OFF, the ECM operates the canister pump module to detect any evaporative emission leakage occurring in the EVAP (evaporative emission) control system through changes in the 0.02 in. leak pressure.

Charging Control (See page EG-65)

The ECM regulates the charging voltage of the generator in accordance with the driving conditions and the charging state of the battery.

System

Immobilizer*2

Prohibits fuel delivery and ignition if an attempt is made to start the engine with an invalid ignition key.

Diagnosis (See page EG-67)

When the ECM detects a malfunction, the ECM diagnoses and memorizes the failed section.

Fail-safe

(See page EG-67)

When the ECM detects a malfunction, the ECM stops or controls the engine according to the data already stored in memory.
