ETC (Electronic Throttle Control) System
ETC (ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL) SYSTEMINSPECTION
FUNCTION AND OPERATION PRINCIPLE
ETC (Electronic Throttle Control) system is electronically controlled throttle device which controls the throttle valve. It consists of ETC motor, throttle body and throttle position sensor (TPS). A mechanical throttle control system receives a driver's intention via a wire cable between the accelerator and the throttle valve, while this ETC system uses the signal from the Accelerator Position Sensor (APS) installed on the accelerator pedal. After the PCM receives the APS signal and calculates the throttle opening angle, it activates the throttle valve by using the ETC motor. Additionally, it can handle cruise control function without any special devices.
