P1720 VSS

P1720 VSS

Description

INFOID:0000000010095139

ECM receives two vehicle speed signals via the CAN communication line. One is sent from “ABS actuator and

electric unit (control unit)” via the combination meter, and the other is from TCM (Transmission control mod-

ule). ECM uses these signals for engine control.

P1800 VIAS CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE 1

P1800 VIAS CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE 1

Description

INFOID:0000000010095142

The VIAS control solenoid valve 1 cuts the intake manifold vacuum signal for power valve 1 control. It

responds to ON/OFF signals from the ECM. When the solenoid is OFF, the vacuum signal from the intake

manifold is cut. When the ECM sends an ON signal the coil pulls the plunger downward and sends the vac-

uum signal to the power valve actuator 1.
