Component Description

FUNCTIONS WITHIN THE SYSTEM 

The electric intake valve timing control actuator operates the electric intake valve timing control motor based on the signal from the electric intake valve timing control module, and it advances or retards the intake valve timing according to the conditions. It also transmits the motor position and motor speed to the electric intake valve timing control module based on the electric intake valve timing control position sensor.

INDIVIDUAL FUNCTION WITHIN THE SYSTEM 

It is composed of the electric intake valve timing control motor and electric intake valve timing control actuator (located inside the electric intake valve timing control position sensor).

INDIVIDUAL OPERATION 

The electric intake valve timing control motor rotates in the same direction as the intake camshaft, and the difference in rotation controls timing advancement, holding, and retardation.

COMPONENT LOCATION 

The electric intake valve timing control actuator (located inside the electric intake valve timing control position sensor) is installed on the engine front side of the intake camshaft.
