SYSTEM DIAGRAM
1. AIR INTAKE CONTROL SYSTEM DIAGRAM
• The system has a dual path design for air intake. An
air intake control valve and actuator control the air
flow path.
• When the engine is operating in the low to medium
speed range, this control operates the air intake
control valve to close one side of the air cleaner inlet.
• When the engine is operating in the high speed
range, this control operates the air intake control
valve to open both sides of the air cleaner inlet.

2. ACOUSTIC CONTROL INDUCTION SYSTEM

DIAGRAM
• The ACIS is realized by using a bulkhead to divide the
intake manifold into 2 stages, with an intake air control
valve in the bulkhead being opened and closed to
vary the effective length of the intake manifold in
accordance with the engine speed and throttle valve
opening angle. This increases the power output in all
ranges from low to high speed.
 2GR-FE INTAKE – INTAKE SYSTEM IT–3

• When the intake control valve closes:

While the engine is running at medium speed under
high load, the ECM controls the actuator to close the
control valve. As a result, the effective length of the
intake manifold is lengthened and the intake
efficiency, in the medium speed range, is improved
due to the dynamic effect of the intake air, thereby
increasing power output.
• When the intake control valve opens:
Under any condition except when the engine is
running at medium speed under high load, the ECM
controls the actuator to open the control valve. When
the control valve is open, the effective length of the
intake air chamber is shortened and peak intake
efficiency is shifted to the low to high engine speed
range, thus providing greater output at low to high
engine speeds.

Intelligent Tester ON-VEHICLE INSPECTION

1. INSPECT INTAKE AIR CONTROL VALVE ASSEMBLY
(a) Inspection procedure when using the intelligent
tester.
(1) Warm up the engine.
(2) Stop the engine.
(3) Connect the intelligent tester to the DLC3.
(4) Turn the ignition switch ON.
(5) Turn the tester ON.
DLC3 (6) Select the following menu items: DIAGNOSIS /
ENHANCED OBD II / ACTIVE TEST / INTAKE
CONTROL VSV1. Press the right or left button.
CAN VIM
B127989E01

(7) Make sure that a clicking sound is heard from

the intake air control valve when current flows.
If the result is not as specified, replace the
intake air surge tank.

A131916

(b) Inspection procedure when applying voltage IT

between the terminals.
2 1 (1) Disconnect the connector from the intake air
control valve.
(2) Apply battery voltage between terminals 1 (-)
and 2 (+) of the intake air control valve. Check
that a clicking sound is heard from the intake
air control valve.
If the result is not as specified, replace the
A129502 intake air surge tank.
2. INSPECT VACUUM SWITCHING VALVE
(a) Perform the Active Test to operate the VSV (see
page ES-426).

3. INSPECT AIR CLEANER ASSEMBLY

Vacuum (a) Inspect the actuator.
(1) Apply 80 kPa (600 mmHg, 23.6 in. Hg) of
vacuum to the actuator. Check if the valve
rotates open, as shown in the illustration.
(2) Apply the vacuum for 1 minute. The actuator
should continue to keep the valve open.
If the result is not as specified, replace the air
cleaner case assembly.

A132184E01

(b) Inspect the vacuum tank.

Vacuum (1) Connect the vacuum pump to port A.
(2) Apply a vacuum of 66.7 kPa (500 mmHg, 20 in.
Hg) to the vacuum tank.
(3) 1 minute after applying the vacuum, check that
the pressure does not change.
(c) Check that there is no ventilation when pressure is
applied to port B, and that there is ventilation when
a vacuum is applied to port B.
Port B
If the result is not as specified, replace the air
cleaner cap assembly.
