ABSTRACT:
A controller that outputs control signals to an actuator of a variable valve timing mechanism is integrally equipped with a cam sensor that takes out from a camshaft signals for discriminating a cylinder corresponding to a reference piston position. The controller discriminates the cylinder corresponding to the reference piston position, computes a rotation phase of the camshaft relative to a crankshaft, and transmits the result of the cylinder discrimination process to an engine controller.
