Camry 3.0L V6 & Camry Solara 3.0L V6

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 16 other vehicles, including the 2002 Toyota Tundra, 2002 Toyota Tacoma, 2002 Toyota Sienna, 2002 Toyota Sequoia, and 2002 Toyota RAV4. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Acoustic Control Induction System (ACIS) is a variable induction system that improves engine performance by increasing the length of intake runners in the air intake chamber. In accordance with engine speed and throttle opening angle, ACIS controls the length of intake runners in air intake chamber in 2 stages. This is accomplished by opening and closing the intake air control valve located on end of air intake chamber. See Fig 1 and Fig 2 . ACIS is controlled by Engine Control Module (ECM). ECM controls ACIS Vacuum Switching Valve (VSV) which controls vacuum supply from vacuum tank to the actuator. Actuator operates intake air control valve in air intake chamber. ECM uses engine RPM input signal and throttle position sensor input signal for determining ACIS operation. Engine RPM input signal is provided by camshaft and crankshaft position sensors.
