Fig. 5- l-9 ECM
The ECM sensed parameters are as follows:
Exhaust Oxygen Concentration.
l
It is sensed by the oxygen sensor installed on
the exhaust manifold.

Throttle position.
l
It is sensed by the micro switches (wide open
switch and idle switch) installed on the
carburetor.

Engine speed.
l
It is computed by the ECM based on the
electrical signal received from the ignition
system.
Electric load.
l
The ECM senses electric loads of the follow-
ing items to provide idle speed compensation.
