ABSTRACT:
A catalyst heating control device for cleaning automotive engine exhaust gases, comprising a generator, at least one battery, a catalyst heating control apparatus, a battery charging device and an electronic fuel injector. Before starting the engine, the catalyst is preheated. At the start of the engine, the catalyst preheat control is curtailed according to the state of the batteries. The catalyst current control is performed by detecting the catalyst activation temperature. The catalyst is heated usually to about 350.degree. C., at which point the current supply for heating is terminated.
