Electronic Throttle Assembly

Description

The electronic throttle assembly is located on intake manifold assembly.

Operation

The electronic throttle assembly is a critical part for engine intake system. Its main function is to adjust intake 
passage area according to driver's driving intention, and control intake air volume to meet the intake 
requirement for engine in different operating conditions, and send back the position signals of throttle valve 
plate to control unit to achieve accurate control. The throttle valve plate will stop at the limp home position 
(NLP) determined in a mechanical way when a malfunction occurs.
The electronic throttle assembly consists of four parts: drive module, train module, executive module and 
feedback module, and all components are integrated into the same throttle valve housing.

Canister Solenoid Valve

Description

The canister solenoid valve opens when power is on, and closes when power is off.

Operation

The canister solenoid valve consists of solenoid coil, magnet armature, valve, etc. The air volume through 
canister solenoid valve depends on electric pulse duty ratio that outputs from Engine Control Module (ECM) 
and pressure difference between canister inlet and outlet. When there is no electric pulse, the canister 
solenoid valve closes.

Engine Control Module (ECM)

Description

The Engine Control Module (ECM), mounted on the lower right side of engine compartment rain gutter front 
end panel assembly, can be removed only as a unit for replacement.

Operation

The Engine Control Module (ECM) is a pre-programmed microprocessor digital computer, which is used to 
adjust ignition timing, air-fuel ratio, emission control, speed control, A/C compressor and idle speed etc. The 
Engine Control Module (ECM) enables the program to suit ever-changing operation conditions.
