Abstract

See full text

An engine ECU learns a base duty ratio command of an actuator for driving a throttle valve as an operation level of engine control on condition that a target idle rotation speed Nei* enters a predetermined rotation speed range during idling of an engine as one prerequisite. When the learning is incomplete, the engine ECU rejects an up request of the target idle rotation speed Nei* sent from an air conditioner ECU and prohibits the target idle rotation speed Nei* from being changed. The control procedure of the invention effectively prohibits a change of the target idle rotation speed Nei* under the condition of incomplete learning of the operation level of engine control. The prohibition of the change desirably keeps the target idle rotation speed Nei* within the predetermined rotation speed range, thus preventing failed fulfillment of the learning condition and ensuring the sufficient learning opportunities of the operation level of engine control.
