Purpose, Function
The generator operates by obtaining drive force from the engine via the drive belt and generates the required electricity for electronic devices.
Construction
The generator is installed on the engine left front side.
Output control is performed by the PCM resulting in the elimination of the IC regulator and the simplification of the construction.
Two delta connection type stator coils have been adopted.
The two stator coils form the circuit having a phase difference, and magnetic pull, which operates between the rotor and stator coil by the phase difference, is theoretically eliminated. Due to this, electromagnetic vibration and generator operation noise (electromagnetic noise) have been reduced.
Pulsation occurring through voltage rectifying using two stator coils having a phase difference is minimized and stable voltage output is supplied.
Operation

Fail-safe
Function not equipped.
Auto Leveling Sensor
Purpose
Detects the vehicle height and outputs it to the AFS control module.
Function
Changes the detected vehicle height into a voltage value and outputs it to
the AFS control module.

Brake Fluid Pressure Sensor
Purpose/Function
The brake fluid pressure sensor detects the fluid pressure from the master
cylinder and transmits it to the DSC HU/CM.
Construction
The brake fluid pressure sensor is built into the DSC HU/CM. Therefore if
there is any malfunction of the brake fluid pressur ...
