Idle speed control keeps the idle speed of the engine constant at approx. 700 RPM. The CDI control unit (N3/9) does this by reading the following information:

The CDI control unit uses the signal from the crankshaft Hall sensor to calculate the engine speed (actual value) and compares this actual value with the respective specified value stored in the performance map, which is dependent on other variables and messages. The CDI control unit subsequently regulates the fuel pressure in the rail via the quantity control valve and the pressure regulator valve (Y74) and the injection time via actuations of the fuel injectors (Y76).

IMPORTANT The fuel pressure in the rail and injection timing of the fuel injectors gives the injection quantity.
