SFI SYSTEM


  1. FUNCTION


    1. The ETCS-i is used, providing excellent throttle control in all operating ranges. The accelerator cable has been discontinued, and an accelerator pedal position sensor has been provided on the accelerator pedal sensor assembly.

    2. In a conventional throttle body assembly, the throttle valve opening is determined invariably by the amount of accelerator pedal effort. In contrast, the ETCS-i uses the ECM to calculate the optimal throttle valve opening that is appropriate for the respective driving conditions and uses a throttle control motor to control the opening.

    3. The ETCS-i controls the Idle Speed Control (ISC) system, Traction Control (TRC)*1, Vehicle Stability Control (VSC) system*1 and cruise control system*2.


      • *1: Models with VSC

        *2: Models with cruise control system

    4. In case of an abnormal condition, this system switches to the limp mode.
