  2. TorqueFlite - Wikipedia

    The 48RE was introduced in 2004 to 3rd gen ram pickups with the 5.9 cummins, or the v10, some 03 and early 04 trucks still were equipped with 47RE units, and then came a 48re which still used a TV cable, and then from 04.5-07 the 48re was fitted with a TTVA motor (transmission throttle valve actuator) which eliminated the need for a mechanical ...

  3. Electronic throttle control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_throttle_control

    A typical ETC system consists of three major components: (i) an accelerator pedal module (ideally with two or more independent sensors), (ii) a throttle valve that can be opened and closed by an electric motor (sometimes referred to as an electric or electronic throttle body (ETB)), and (iii) a powertrain or engine control module (PCM or ECM).

  4. Valve actuator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valve_actuator

    The blue valve body is visible in-line with the pipe. The valve actuator opens or closes the butterfly disc of the valve based on electrical signals sent to the actuator. Another valve actuator is visible in the background, with windows to indicate the valve position. A valve actuator is the mechanism for opening and closing a valve. Manually ...

  5. Sudden unintended acceleration - Wikipedia

    Other problems may be implicated in the case of older vehicles equipped with carburetors. Weak, disconnected, or mis-connected throttle return springs, worn shot-pump barrels, chafed bowden cable housings, and cables which jump their tracks in the throttle-body crank can all cause similar acceleration problems.

  6. Traction control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traction_control_system

    Closing the throttle, if the vehicle is fitted with drive by wire throttle; In turbocharged vehicles, a boost control solenoid is actuated to reduce boost and therefore engine power. Typically, traction control systems share the electrohydraulic brake actuator (which does not use the conventional master cylinder and servo) and wheel-speed ...

  7. Transmission control unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_Control_Unit

    These electronic systems typically work in conjunction with the engine control unit (in a similar way to road cars), and are responsible for operating electronic throttle control, clutch and gearshift actuation (via an electric, hydraulic, or pneumatic actuator), gearshift time and speed, sensors, switches, solenoids, and other hydraulic ...

  8. Drive by wire - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_by_wire

    Accelerate-by-wire or throttle-by-wire, [17] more commonly known as electronic throttle control, is a system that actuates vehicle propulsion without any mechanical connections, such as cables, from the accelerator pedal to the throttle valve of the engine or other propulsion systems. In electric vehicles, this system controls the electric ...

  9. MultiAir - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MultiAir

    The solenoid valve regulates the amount of oil pumped by the cam action to either the valve or a bypass reservoir. When pressurized, the hydraulic line behaves like a solid body and transmits the lift schedule imparted by the intake cam directly to the intake valve. When the solenoid is disengaged, a spring takes over valve actuation duties.
