ECM directly controls the actuator and VCM flap for link-structure intake manifold is operated when motor rotates. This creates air tumble. Motor and position sensor are mounted inside the actuator in order to receive the position of flap and send feedback to ECM. They sense current location of flap and determine whether there is foreign substance or if the system operates in normal condition.
