Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2058489A2] In a system for controlling an internal combustion engine (12) mounted on a vehicle (10) and having an actuator (44) that drives a throttle valve (24) installed in an intake pipe (22) of the engine, it is configured to comprise a throttle opening sensor (52) that produces an output indicative of opening of the throttle valve (24), and to determine an output of the throttle opening sensor (52) at a time when the throttle valve (24) is driven to a fully-closed position by the actuator as a full-close reference TPS_fully_close; determine a full-open reference TPS_wot corresponding to a fully-opened position of the throttle valve (24) based on the determined full-close reference; and control the operation of the actuator (44) such that the throttle valve opening becomes a desired value that is determined within a range defined by the full-close reference and the full-open reference. With this, the full-close reference and full-open reference can be determined accurately and promptly.
