Components And Components Location: Components

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2018 Kia Optima. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

ECM directly controls the actuator and VCM flap for link-structure intake manifold is operated when motor rotates. This creates air tumble. Motor and position sensor are mounted inside the actuator in order to receive the position of flap and send feedback to ECM. They sense current location of flap and determine whether there is foreign substance or whether system operates in normal condition.
