POWER STEERING PRESSURE SWITCH
A power steering pressure switch is installed on the power
steering oil pump. The power steering pressure switch uses a
contact switch to detect the power steering oil pressure. When
power steering oil pressure rises due to operation of the steer
-
ing wheel, the power steering load switch outputs an ON signal
to ECM. ECM performs idle-up according to the voltage and
prevents reduction in engine speed due to power steering load
and so maintains stable idle speed.

THROTTLE VALVE OPENING ANGLE CONTROL AND IDLE SPEED CONTROL

THROTTLE VALVE OPENING ANGLE CONTROL AND IDLE
SPEED CONTROL
M2132003500328
ECM detects the amount of accelerator pedal
depression (as per operator's intention) through the
accelerator pedal position sensor. Based on pre-set
basic target opening angles it adds various compen
-
sations and controls the throttle valve opening angle
according to the target opening angle.
While starting
ECM adds various compensations to the target
opening angle that are set based on the engine cool
-
ant temperature, so that the air volume is optimum
for starting.
While idling
ECM controls the throttle valve to achieve the target
opening angle that are set based on the engine cool
-
ant temperature. In this way best idle operation is
achieved when engine is cold and when it is hot.
Also, the following compensations ensure optimum
control.
While driving
Compensations are made to the target opening
angle set according to the accelerator pedal opening
angle and engine speed to control the throttle valve
opening angle.

List of main compensations for throttle valve opening angle and idle speed control
Initialize control
After ignition switch turns OFF, ECM drives the throt-
tle valve from fully closed position to fully open posi-
tion and records the fully closed/open studied value
of the throttle position sensor (main and sub) output
signals. The recorded studied values are used as
studied value compensation for compensating basic
target opening angle when the engine is started next.
CompensationsContent
Stable idle compensation (immediately after start)In order to stabilize idle speed immediately after
start, target opening angle is kept big and then
gradually reduced. Compensation values are set
based on the engine coolant temperature.
Rotation speed feedback compensation (while
idling)In case there is a difference between the target idle
speed and actual engine speed, ECM
compensates the throttle valve opening angle
based on that difference.
Atmospheric pressure compensationAt high altitudes atmospheric pressure is less and
the intake air density is low. So, the target opening
angle is compensated based on atmospheric
pressure.
Engine coolant temperature compensationCompensation is made according to the engine
coolant temperature. The lower the engine coolant
temperature the greater the throttle valve opening
angle.
Electric load compensationThrottle valve opening angle is compensated
according to electric load. The greater the electric
load, the greater the throttle valve opening angle.
Compensation when shift is in D range When transmission is changed from P or N range
to some other range, throttle valve opening angle is
increased to prevent reduction in engine speed.
Compensation when A/C is functioningThrottle valve opening angle is compensated
according to functioning of A/C compressor. While
A/C compressor is being driven, the throttle valve
opening angle is increased.
Power steering fluid pressure compensationThrottle valve opening angle is compensated
according to power steering functioning. When
power steering oil pressure rises and power
steering pressure switch is ON, the throttle valve
opening angle is increased.

FEATURES
A hydraulic power steering system has been adopted
to all models.
This steering system offers the following features:
•The support method of the steering gear to the
crossmember is realised by the left and right
internal bushings with inner cylinders. This sup
-
port method achieves higher rigidity of the steer-
ing gear and improves the steering feeling.
•Configuring the optimum flow characteristics and
gear valve feature improves the handling stability.
•Appropriate application of friction to the steering
gear cuts off the disturbance from the road sur
-
face and improves the stability during the
straight-ahead driving.
•Optimisation of the flexible tube in the high pres-
sure hose reduces the pump noise.
