The sensor detects a fuel level in the fuel tank and tr
ansmits a signal to the combination meter. The combina-
tion meter sends the fuel level sensor signal to the ECM via the CAN communication line.
It consists of two parts, one is mechanical float and the ot her is variable resistor. Fuel level sensor output volt-
age changes depending on the movement of the fuel mechanical float.
Fuel Pump Control ModuleINFOID:0000000006217674
The fuel pump control module (FPCM) controls the discharging vol-
ume of the fuel pump by transmitt ing the FPCM control signals (Low/
Mid/High) depending on driving conditions.
Fuel Rail Pressure SensorINFOID:0000000006217675
The fuel rail pressure (FRP) sensor is placed to the fuel rail and
measures fuel pressure in the fuel rail. The sensor transmits voltage
signal to the ECM. As the pressure increases, the voltage rises. The
ECM controls the fuel pressure in the fuel rail by operating high pres-
sure fuel pump. The ECM uses the signal from fuel rail pressure sen-
sor as a feedback signal.
Fuel Tank Temperature SensorINFOID:0000000006217676
The fuel tank temperature sensor is used to detect the fuel tempera-
ture inside the fuel tank. The sensor modifies a voltage signal from
the ECM. The modified signal returns to the ECM as the fuel temper-
ature input. The sensor uses a ther mistor which is sensitive to the
change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor
decreases as temperature increases.

*: These data are reference values and are measured between ECM terminals.

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.

COMPONENT PARTS
Knock Sensor
INFOID:0000000006217683
The knock sensor is attached to t he cylinder block. It senses engine
knocking using a piezoelectric element. A knocking vibration from
the cylinder block is sensed as vibrational pressure. This pressure is
converted into a voltage signal and sent to the ECM.
Low Fuel Pressure SensorINFOID:0000000006217684
The low fuel pressure sensor is installed to low fuel pressure piping
and measures the low fuel pressu re. The sensor transmits voltage
signal to the ECM. As the pressure increases, the voltage rises.
Low Pressure Fuel PumpINFOID:0000000006217685
The low pressure fuel pump is integrated with a fuel pressure regula-
tor and a fuel filter. This pump is build into the fuel tank.
ECM controls the low pressure fuel pump via FPCM.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)INFOID:0000000006217686
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) is located on the combination
meter.
The MIL will illuminate when the ignition switch is turned ON without
the engine running. This is a bulb check.
When the engine is started, the MIL should turn off. If the MIL
remains illuminated, the on board diagnostic system has detected an
engine system malfunction.
For details, refer to EC-51, "
Diagnosis Description".

SYSTEM
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
Low fuel pressure control
 The low fuel pressure pump is controlled by the f
uel pump control module (FPCM) and pumps fuel according
to a driving condition. The pumped fuel passes through t he fuel filter and is sent to the high pressure fuel
pump. FPCM controls the low pressure fuel pump, ac cording to a signal from ECM as shown in the table
below.
 Low fuel pressure is adjusted by the fuel pressure regulator.
High fuel pressure control
 The high pressure fuel pump raises the pressure of the fuel sent from the low pressure fuel pump. Actuated
by the camshaft, the high pressure fuel pump activates the high pressure fuel pump solenoid based on a sig-
nal received from ECM, and adjusts the amount of di scharge by changing the timing of closing the inlet
check valve to control fuel rail pressure.

 Specification data are reference values.
 Specification data are output/input values which are
detected or supplied by the ECM at the connector.
* Specification data may not be directly relat ed to their components signals/values/operations.
i.e. Adjust ignition timing with a timing light before monitoring IGN TIMING, because the monitor may show
the specification data in spite of the ignition timing not being adjusted to the specification data. This IGN TIM-
ING monitors the data calculated by the ECM accordi ng to the signals input from the camshaft position sen-
sor and other ignition timing related sensors.
