211EG32
2-Way Exhaust Control System

A 2-way exhaust control system is used. This system reduces the back pressure by opening a variable
valve that is enclosed in the main muffler.
The valve opens steplessly in accordance with the operating condition of the engine, thus enabling a
quieter operation at lower engine speeds, and reducing back pressure at higher engine speeds.
1) Construction
The control valve is enclosed in the main-muffler. When the exhaust gas pressure overcomes the spring
pressure, the control valve opens steplessly in accordance with the exhaust gas pressure.
2) Operation
a. When Control Valve is Closed (low engine speed)

Since the pressure in the main muffler is low, the control valve is closed. Hence exhaust gas does not
pass the bypass passage, and exhaust noise decreased by the main muffler.
b. When Control Valve is Open (middle to high engine speed)

The valve opens more as the engine speed and the back pressure in the muffler increase. This allows
a large volume of exhaust gas to pass the bypass passage, thereby substantially decreasing the back pres-
sure.

A compact 12-hole type injector with high atomizing performance has been adopted to improve the atom-
ization of fuel. As the result, the air assist system used on ’01 ES300 has been discontinued.
A tether has been provided on the fuel filter cap to prevent the cap from being lost, which results in prevent-
ing the leakage of fuel or the evaporative gas.
The quick-turn type fuel tank cap has been newly adopted to improve usability.
The ORVR (On-board Refueling Vapor Recovery) system has been adopted. For details, see page xx.

STARTING SYSTEM
Starter
1) General
A compact and lightweight PS (Planetary reduction-Segment conductor motor) starter has been
adopted on all models.
Because the PS starter contains an armature that uses square-shaped conductors, and its surface func-
tions as a commutator, it has resulted in both improving its output torque and reducing its overall
length.
In place of the field coil used in the conventional starter, the PS starter uses two types of permanent
magnets: main magnets and interpolar magnets. The main magnets and interpolar magnets have been
efficiently arranged to increase the magnetic flux and to shorten the length of the yoke.

2) Construction
Instead of the construction of the armature coil of the conventional starter that uses round-shaped con-
ductor wires, the PS starter uses square conductors. With this type of construction, the same conditions
that are realized by winding numerous round-shaped conductor wires can be achieved without increas-
ing the mass. As a result, the output torque has been increased, and the armature coil has been made
more compact.
Because the surface of the square-shaped conductors that are used in the armature coil functions as
a commutator, the overall length of the PS starter has been shortened.

Instead of the field coils used in the conventional starter, the PS starter has adopted two types of perma-
nent magnets: the main magnets and the interpolar magnets. The main and interpolar magnets are ar-
ranged alternately inside the yoke, allowing the magnetic flux that is generated between the main and
interpolar magnets to be added to the magnetic flux that is generated by the main magnets.
In addition to increasing the amount of magnetic flux, this construction shortens the overall length of
the yoke.

ENGINE MOUNT
1. General
A 3-point support on the front subframe has been Torque Rod
adopted. An active control engine mount has been
adopted on the front engine mount and a hydraulic
engine mount has been adopted on the right and
left engine mounts to realize low noise and vibra-
tion and to achieve high levels of both riding com-
fort and drivability.

2. Active Control Engine Mount

The operating range of the active control engine mount is during idling under the engine speeds of 900 rpm.
Signals that are synchronized to the engine rpm are sent by the ECM to the VSV and the engine vacuum is
utilized to vary the pressure of the intake air chamber in the active control engine mount. As a result, the dia-
phragm vibrates, and using the liquid as a medium, the rubber mount vibrates.
This vibration of the engine mount acts to cancel out the engine vibration during idle, thus reducing the vibra-
tion and noise at idle.
The engine mount’s damping force to generate vibrations is adjusted through the effects of the orifice and
the side branch.

6. SFI (Sequential Multiport electronic Fuel Injection) System

An L-type SFI system directly detects the intake air mass with a hot wire type mass air flow meter.
An independent injection system (in which fuel is injected once into each cylinder for each two revolution
of the crankshaft) has been adopted.
There are two types of fuel injection:
a) One is synchronous injection in which corrections based on the signals from the sensors are added to
the basic injection duration so that injection occurs always at the same timing.
b) The other is non-synchronous injection in which injection is effected by detecting the requests from the
signals of the sensors regardless of the crankshaft angle.
Furthermore, to protect the engine and improve fuel economy, the system effects fuel cutoff in which the in-
jection of fuel is stopped temporarily in accordance with the driving conditions.

7. ESA (Electronic Spark Advance)

This system selects the optimal ignition timing in accordance with the signals received from the sensors and
sends the (IGT) ignition signal to the igniter. The default ignition timing is set to 5 BTDC.
8. ETCS-i (Electronic Throttle Control System-intelligent)
General
In the conventional throttle body, the throttle valve opening in determined invariably by the amount of
the 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 condition and uses a throttle control motor to control
the opening.
The accelerator cable and link have been discontinued, and an a accelerator position sensor has been pro-
vided on the accelerator pedal.

with the respective vehicle operating condition.
Idle Speed Control
Shift Shock Reduction Control
Cruise Control
2) Idle Speed Control

Controls the ECM and the throttle valve in order to constantly effect ideal idle speed control.
3) Shift Shock Reduction Control

The throttle control is synchronized to the ECT (Electronically Controlled Transmission) control during
the shifting of the transmission in order to reduce the shift shock.
4) TRAC Throttle Control

As part of the TRAC system, the throttle valve is closed by a demand signal from the skid control ECU
if an excessive amount of slippage is created at a driving wheel, thus facilitating the vehicle in ensuring
stability and driving force.
5) VSC Coordination Control

In order to bring the effectiveness of the VSC system control into full play, the throttle valve opening
angle is controlled by effecting a coordination control with the skid control ECU.
6) Cruise Control
An ECM with an integrated cruise control ECU directly actuates the throttle valve to effect the operation
of the cruise control.
9. VVT-i (Variable Valve Timing-intelligent) System
General
The VVT-i system is designed to control the intake camshaft within a wide range of 60 (of crankshaft
angle) to provide a valve timing that is optimally suited to the engine condition, thus realizing improved
torque in all the speed ranges and fuel economy, and reduction of exhaust emissions. The actual intake valve
timing is feedback by means of the camshaft position sensor for constant control to the target valve timing.

10. ACIS (Acoustic Control Induction System)
General
The ACIS is realized by using a bulkhead to divide the intake manifold into 3 stages, with an intake air con-
trol valves in the bulkhead being opened and closed to vary the effective length and intake area 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.

3) Vacuum Tank
Equipped with an internal check valve, the vacuum tank stores the vacuum that is applied to the actuator
in order to maintain the intake air control valve fully closed even during low-vacuum conditions.
Operation
1) Heavy Load in the Low-Speed Range

The ECM activates the VSV to match the longest pulsation cycle so that the negative pressure acts on
the diaphragm chamber of the actuators. This closes the control valves. As a result, the intake area of the
intake manifold is narrowed and the intake efficiency in the low speed range is improved due to the dy-
namic effect of the intake air, thereby increasing the power output.

2) Heavy Load in the Mid-speed Range

The ECM deactivates the VSV (intake air chamber side) to match the relatively long cycle so that atmo-
spheric air is led into the diaphragm chamber of the actuator and opens the control valve. When the con-
trol valve is open, the intake area of the intake manifold is widened and peak intake efficiency is shifted
to the mid engine speed range, thus providing greater output at mid engine speeds.

The ECM deactivates the VSVs to match the relatively long cycle so that atmospheric air is led into the
diaphragm chamber of the actuator and opens the control valves. When the control valves are open, the
effective length of the intake air chamber is lengthened most and peak intake efficiency is shifted to the
high engine speed range, thus providing greater output at high engine speeds.

11. Air Intake Control System
General
The air cleaner inlet is divided into two areas, and an air intake control valve and an actuator have been pro-
vided in one of the areas.
As a result, a reduction in intake noise in the low-speed range and an increase in the power output in the
high-speed range have been realized.

Operation
When the engine is operating in the low-to mid-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 side of the air cleaner inlet to effect the intake of air.

12. Evaporative Emission Control System
General
The vacuum type has been adopted on the ’02 ES300 to detect leaks in the evaporative emission control
system. This vacuum type detects leaks by forcefully introducing the purge vacuum into the entire system
and monitoring the changes in the pressure. It consists of the following main components:
A VSV (for canister closed valve) that closes the fresh air line from the air cleaner to the charcoal canister
has been adopted.
A VSV (for pressure switching valve) that opens the evaporator line between the fuel tank and the char-
coal canister has been adopted.
Function to close the purge line from the air intake chamber to the charcoal canister for this system is
added to the original functions of VSV (for EVAP).
A vapor pressure sensor that measures the pressure in the fuel tank while checking for evaporative emis-
sion leaks and sends signals to the ECM has been adopted.

Operation
1) Purge Flow
When the engine has reached predetermined parameters (closed loop, engine coolant temp. above 74C
(165F), etc.), stored fuel vapors are purged from the charcoal canister whenever the purge valve is
opened by the ECM. At the appropriate time, the ECM will turn on the VSV (for EVAP).
The ECM will change the duty ratio cycle of the VSV (for EVAP) thus controlling purge flow volume.
Purge flow volume is determined by manifold pressure and the duty ratio cycle of the VSV (for EVAP).
Atmospheric pressure is allowed into the canister to ensure that purge flow is constantly maintained
whenever purge vacuum is applied to the canister.

2) ORVR (On-Board Refueling Vapor Recovery)

During refueling, low pressure above the diaphragm in the onboard recovery valve lifts allowing fuel
vapors into the charcoal canister. At the same time, the air drain valve opens and the charcoal absorbs
the fuel vapors.

3) Monitor
The monitor sequence begins with a cold engine start. The intake air temp. and engine coolant temp. sen-
sors must have approximately the same temperature reading. The ECM is constantly monitoring fuel tank
pressure. As the temperature of the fuel increases, pressure slowly rises. The ECM will purge the charcoal
canister at the appropriate time. With VSV (for pressure switching valve) closed, pressure will continue
to rise in fuel tank.

4) DTC P0440, P0442 (Evaporative Emission Control System Malfunction)

Initially, when the canister closed valve is closed, and the pressure switching valve and the purge valve are
opened, a vacuum is applied to the purge line from the air intake to the charcoal canister and to the evapora-
tor line from the charcoal canister to the fuel tank. Next, the purge valve is closed in order to maintain a
vacuum from the VSV (for EVAP) to the inside of the fuel tank. Then, any subsequent changes in the pres-
sure are monitored by the vapor pressure sensor in order to check for evaporative emission leaks.
If a leak is detected, the MIL (Malfunction Indicator Lamp) illuminates to inform the driver. Also, the
DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code) can be accessed through the use of a hand-held tester.
For details on the DTCs, refer to the 2002 ES300 Repair Manual (Pub. No. RM911U).

5) DTC P0441 (Evaporative Emission Control System Incorrect Purge Flow)

At a predetermined point, the ECM closed the canister closed valve and opens the pressure switching
valve causing a pressure drop in the entire EVAP system. The ECM continues to operate the VSV (for
EVAP) until the pressure is lowered to a specified point at which time the ECM closed the purge valve.
If the pressure did not drop, or if the drop in pressure increase beyond the specified limit, the ECM judges
the VSV (for EVAP) and related components to be faulty and the MIL illuminates to inform the driver.

pressure rises to a specified point, the ECM opens the canister closed valve. Pressure will increase rapid-
ly because of the air allowed into the system. No increase or an increase below specified rate of pressure
increase indicates a restriction on the air inlet side. If a malfunction is detected, the MIL illuminates
to inform the driver. Also, the DTC can be accessed through the use of a hand-held tester.

General
When the ECM detects a malfunction, the ECM stops or controls the engine according to the data already
stored in the memory.
Fail-Safe Control List : New
Location on Malfunction Description Control

In case of a signal malfunction, the engine could operate poorly or
the catalyst could overheat if the engine continues to be controlled
Mass Air Flow Meter with the signals from the sensors.
Therefore, the ECM effects control by using the values in the ECM
or stops the engine.
In case of a signal malfunction, the ECM calculates the accelerator
pedal opening angle that is limited by the dual system sensor value
Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor
and continues effecting throttle valve control. If both system
malfunction, the ECM considers that the accelerator pedal is fully
closed.
In case of a signal malfunction, the ECM cuts off the current to the
throttle control motor. The throttle valve returns to the prescribed
Throttle Position Sensor opening by the force of the return spring. The ECM then adjusts the
(For details, see page EG-55) engine output by controlling the fuel injection and ignition timing
in accordance with the accelerator pedal opening angle to enable
the vehicle to continue driving.
In case of a signal malfunction, the use of the values from the
sensors will make the air-fuel ratio become too rich or too lean,
Engine Coolant Temp. Sensor which could causes the engine to stall or to run poorly during cold
and operation. Therefore, the ECM fixes the air-fuel ratio to the
Intake Air Temp. Sensor stoichiometric ratio and uses the constant values of 80C engine
coolant temperature and 20C intake air temperature to perform the
calculation.
In case of a malfunction in the knock sensor or in the knocking
signal system (open or short circuit), the engine could become
damaged if the timing is advanced despite the presence of
Knock Sensor
knocking. Therefore, if a malfunction is detected in the knock
sensor system, the ECM turns the timing retard correction of the
knock sensor into the maximum retard value.
In case of a malfunction in the ignition system, such as an open
circuit in the ignition coil, the catalyst could be become overheated
Ignition Coil due to engine misfire. Therefore, if the (IGF) ignition signal is not
(with Igniter) input twice or more in a row, the ECM determines that a
malfunction occurred in the ignition system and stops only the
injection of fuel into the cylinder with the malfunction.
Fail-Safe of Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor

The accelerator pedal position sensor comprises two (main, sub) sensor circuits. If a malfunction occurs
in either one of the sensor circuits, the ECM detects the abnormal signal voltage difference between these
two sensor circuit and switches to the limp mode. In the limp mode, the remaining circuit is used to calcu-
late the accelerator pedal opening, in order to operate the vehicle under limp mode control.

the force of the return spring causes the throttle valve to return and stay at the prescribed opening. At this
time, the vehicle can be driven in the limp mode while the engine output is regulated through the control
of the fuel injection and ignition timing in accordance with the accelerator opening.
The same control as above is effected if the ECM detects a malfunction in the throttle control motor sys-

2. Camshafts
The camshafts are made of cast iron alloy.
In conjunction with the adoption of the VVT-i system, an oil passage is provided in the intake camshaft
in order to supply engine oil t to the VVT-i system.
A VVT-i controller has been installed on the back of the intake camshaft to vary the timing of the intake
valves.
To detect the camshaft position, a timing rotor that is provided on the VVT-i controller is used to generate
3 pulses for every 2 revolutions of the crankshaft.
The intake camshafts are driven by gears on the exhaust camshafts. The scissors gear mechanism is used
on drive gear of the exhaust camshaft to control backlash and suppress gear noise.
