ABSTRACT:
The present application provides a sensor adjusting method and a sensor adjusting system for a variable valve mechanism. An actuator is controlled based on an adjustment request signal from an external device in such a manner that a mechanical load of a variable valve mechanism moves to a position where the movement is limited by a stopper. When it is judged that the mechanical load has moved to the position where the movement is limited by the stopper, the mounting position and the electrical characteristics of the sensor for detecting the mechanical load are adjusted so that the output of the sensor assumes a reference value.
