shutter. The switch plate contains the distributor
pick-up which is a Hall Effect device and magnet.
The shutter blades rotate through the distributor
pick-up. As the shutter blades pass through the pick-
up, they interrupt the magnetic field. The Hall effect
device in the pick-up senses the change in the mag-
netic field and switches on and off (which creates
pulses), generating the input signal to the PCM. The
PCM calculates engine speed through the number of
pulses generated.
MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE (MAP)
SENSORÐPCM INPUT
The PCM supplies 5 volts to the MAP sensor. The
MAP sensor converts intake manifold pressure into
voltage. The PCM monitors the MAP sensor output
voltage. As vacuum increases, MAP sensor voltage
decreases proportionately. Also, as vacuum decreases,
MAP sensor voltage increases proportionately. During cranking, before the engine starts running,
the PCM determines atmospheric air pressure from
the MAP sensor voltage. While the engine operates,
the PCM determines intake manifold pressure from
the MAP sensor voltage. Based on MAP sensor voltage and inputs from
other sensors, the PCM adjusts spark advance and
the air/fuel mixture. The MAP sensor mounts on the dash panel (Fig. 5).
A vacuum hose connects the sensor to the throttle
body.
HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR (O2SENSOR)ÐPCM
INPUT
The O2sensor is located in the exhaust manifold
and provides an input voltage to the PCM. The input
tells the PCM the oxygen content of the exhaust gas
(Fig. 6). The PCM uses the information to fine tune
the air-fuel ratio by adjusting injector pulse width. The O
2sensor produces voltages from 0 to 1 volt,
depending upon the oxygen content of the exhaust
gas. When a large amount of oxygen is present
(caused by a lean air-fuel mixture), the sensor pro-
duces a low voltage. When there is a lesser amount
present (rich air-fuel mixture), it produces a higher
voltage. By monitoring the oxygen content and con-
verting it to electrical voltage, the sensor acts as a
rich-lean switch. The oxygen sensor is equipped with a heating ele-
ment that keeps the sensor at proper operating tem-
perature during all operating modes. Maintaining
correct sensor temperature at all times allows the
system to enter into closed loop operation sooner.
Also, it allows the system to remain in closed loop
operation during periods of extended idle. In Closed Loop operation the PCM monitors the O
2
sensor input (along with other inputs) and adjusts
the injector pulse width accordingly. During Open
Loop operation the PCM ignores the O
2sensor input.
The PCM adjusts injector pulse width based on a pre-
programmed (fixed) oxygen sensor input value and
inputs from other sensors.
SPEED CONTROLÐPCM INPUT
The speed control system provides four separate
voltages (inputs) to the PCM. The voltages corre-
spond to the On/Off, Set, and Resume. The speed control ON voltage informs the PCM
that the speed control system has been activated.
The speed control SET voltage informs the PCM that
a fixed vehicle speed has been selected. The speed
control RESUME voltage indicates the previous fixed
speed is requested. The speed control OFF voltage
tells the PCM that the speed control system has de-
activated. Refer to Group 8H for further speed con-
trol information.

The PCM removes the ground to the solenoid when
the engine reaches a specified temperature and the
time delay interval has occurred. When the solenoid is
de-energized, vacuum flows to the canister purge
valve. Vapors are purged from the canister and flow to
the throttle body. The purge solenoid is also energized during certain
idle conditions to update the fuel delivery calibration.
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP (CHECK
ENGINE)ÐPCM OUTPUT
The Malfunction Indicator lamp (instrument panel
Check Engine lamp) comes on each time the ignition
key is turned ON and stays on for 3 seconds as a bulb
test. The malfunction indicator lamp warns the opera-
tor that the PCM has entered a Limp-in mode. During
Limp-in-Mode, the PCM attempts to keep the system
operational. The malfunction indicator lamp signals
the need for immediate service. In limp-in mode, the
PCM compensates for the failure of certain components
that send incorrect signals. The PCM substitutes for
the incorrect signals with inputs from other sensors. Signals that can trigger the Malfunction Indi-
cator Lamp.
² Coolant Temperature Sensor
² Manifold Absolute Pressure Sensor
² Throttle Position Sensor
² Battery Voltage Input
² An Emissions Related System
² Charging system
The malfunction indicator lamp can also be used to
display diagnostic trouble codes. Cycle the ignition
switch on, off, on, off, on, within five seconds and any
diagnostic trouble codes stored in the PCM will be
displayed. Refer to the 2.2L/2.5L Single Point Fuel
InjectionÐOn-Board Diagnostics section in this group.
DATA LINK CONNECTORÐPCM OUTPUT
The data link connector provides the technician with
the means to connect the DRBII scan tool to diagnosis
the vehicle.
ELECTRIC ELECTRONIC GAS
RECIRCULATIONÐPCM OUTPUT
The electronic exhaust gas recirculation transducer
(EET) is a back pressure transducer/electric vacuum
solenoid assembly (Fig. 13). The EET assembly mounts
above the EGR valve (Fig. 14).
The solenoid turns the vacuum supply to the trans-
ducer on and off. The electric vacuum solenoid portion
of the EET energizes when the PCM provides a ground
path. When the solenoid energizes, vacuum is pre-
vented from flowing to the transducer. When the sole-
noid de-energizes, vacuum flows to the transducer. The
solenoid energizes during engine warm-up, closed
throttle (idle or cruise), wide open throttle, and rapid
acceleration/deceleration. If the solenoid wire con-
nector is disconnected, the EGR valve will oper-
ate at all times.

TACHOMETERÐPCM OUTPUT
The PCM supplies engine RPM to the instrument
panel tachometer. Refer to Group 8 for tachometer
information.
MODES OF OPERATION
As input signals to the PCM change, the PCM
adjusts its response to the output devices. For example,
the PCM must calculate a different injector pulse
width and ignition timing for idle than it does for wide
open throttle (WOT). There are several different modes
of operation that determine how the PCM responds to
the various input signals. There are two different areas of operation, OPEN
LOOP and CLOSED LOOP. During OPEN LOOP modes, the PCM receives input
signals and responds according to preset PCM pro-
gramming. Input from the oxygen (O
2) sensor is not
monitored during OPEN LOOP modes. During CLOSED LOOP modes, the PCM does moni-
tor the oxygen (O
2) sensor input. This input tells the
PCM if the calculated injector pulse width results in an
air-fuel ratio of 14.7 to 1. By monitoring the exhaust
oxygen content, the can PCM fine tune injector pulse
width for optimum fuel economy and low emissions. The single point fuel injection system has the follow-
ing modes of operation:
² Ignition switch ON - Zero RPM
² Engine start-up
² Engine warm-up
² Cruise (Idle)
² Acceleration
² Deceleration
² Wide Open Throttle
² Ignition switch OFF
The engine start-up (cranking), engine warm-up, and
wide open throttle modes are OPEN LOOP modes. The
acceleration, deceleration, and cruise modes, with the
engine at operating temperature are CLOSED
LOOP modes (under most operating conditions).
IGNITION SWITCH ON (ZERO RPM) MODE
When the single point fuel injection system is acti-
vated by the ignition switch, the following actions
occur:
² The PCM determines atmospheric air pressure from
the MAP sensor input to calculate basic fuel strategy.
² The PCM monitors the coolant temperature sensor
and throttle position sensor inputs. The PCM modifies
fuel strategy based on these inputs. When the key is in the ON position and the engine is
not running, the (ASD) and fuel pump relays are not
energized. Therefore, battery voltage is not supplied to
the fuel pump, ignition coil, fuel injector or oxygen
sensor heating element. ENGINE START-UP MODE
This is an OPEN LOOP mode. The following actions
occur when the starter motor is engaged. If the PCM receives a distributor signal it energizes
the auto shutdown (ASD) relay and fuel pump relay to
supply battery voltage to the fuel injector, ignition coil
and oxygen sensor heating element. If the PCM does
not receive a distributor input, it de-energizes the ASD
and fuel pump relays after approximately one second. When the engine idles within 664 RPM of the target
RPM, the PCM compares the current MAP value with
the atmospheric pressure value it received during the
Ignition Switch On (Zero RPM) Mode. If a minimum
difference between the two is not detected, a MAP
sensor fault is set into memory. Once the ASD relay and fuel pump relay have ener-
gized, the PCM:
² Supplies a ground path to the injector. The injector
is pulsed four times per engine revolution instead of
the normal two pulses per revolution.
² Determines injector pulse width based on coolant
temperature, MAP sensor input, throttle position, and
the number of engine revolutions since cranking was
initiated.
² Monitors the coolant temperature sensor, distribu-
tor pick-up, MAP sensor, and throttle position sensor to
determine correct ignition timing.
ENGINE WARM-UP MODE
This is a OPEN LOOP mode. The following inputs
are received by the PCM:
² coolant temperature
² manifold absolute pressure (MAP)
² engine speed (distributor pick-up)
² throttle position
² A/C switch
² battery voltage
The PCM provides a ground path for the injector to
precisely control injector pulse width (by switching the
ground on and off) and fires the injector twice per
engine revolution. The PCM regulates ignition timing.
It also adjusts engine idle speed through the idle air
control motor.
CRUISE OR IDLE MODE
When the engine is at operating temperature this is
a CLOSED LOOP mode. During cruising speed and at
idle the following inputs are received by the PCM:
² coolant temperature
² manifold absolute pressure
² engine speed
² throttle position
² exhaust gas oxygen content
² A/C control positions
² battery voltage
14 - 32 FUEL SYSTEMS Ä

The PCM provides a ground path for the injector to
precisely control injector pulse width and fires the in-
jector twice per engine revolution. The PCM controls
engine idle speed and ignition timing. The PCM con-
trols the air/fuel ratio according to the oxygen con-
tent in the exhaust gas.
ACCELERATION MODE This is a CLOSED LOOP mode. The PCM recog-
nizes an abrupt increase in throttle position or MAP
pressure as a demand for increased engine output
and vehicle acceleration. The PCM increases injector
pulse width in response to increased fuel demand.
DECELERATION MODE This is a CLOSED LOOP mode. During decelera-
tion the following inputs are received by the PCM:
² coolant temperature
² manifold absolute pressure
² engine speed
² throttle position
² exhaust gas oxygen content
² A/C control positions
² battery voltage
The PCM may receive a closed throttle input from
the throttle position sensor (TPS) at the same time it
senses an abrupt decrease in manifold pressure from
the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor. This
indicates a hard deceleration. The PCM may reduce
injector firing to once per engine revolution. This
helps maintain better control of the air-fuel mixture
(as sensed through the O
2sensor).
During a deceleration condition, the PCM grounds
the exhaust gas recirculation transducer (EET) sole-
noid. EGR stops when the PCM grounds the solenoid.
WIDE OPEN THROTTLE MODE This is an OPEN LOOP mode. During wide open
throttle operation, the following inputs are received
by the PCM:
² coolant temperature
² manifold absolute pressure
² engine speed
² throttle position
When the PCM senses a wide open throttle condi-
tion through the throttle position sensor (TPS) it
will:
² De-energize the air conditioning relay. This dis-
ables the air conditioning system.
² Provide a ground path for the electric EGR trans-
ducer (EET) solenoid, preventing the EGR system
from functioning. The exhaust gas oxygen content input is not ac-
cepted by the PCM during wide open throttle opera- tion. The PCM will adjust injector pulse width to
supply a predetermined amount of additional fuel.
IGNITION SWITCH OFF MODE
When the ignition switch is turned to the OFF po-
sition, the following occurs:
² All outputs are turned off.
² No inputs are monitored.
² The PCM shuts down.
FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR
The pressure regulator is a mechanical device lo-
cated at the top of the throttle body (Fig. 17). Its
function is to maintain a constant 270 kPa (39 PSI)
across the fuel injector tip.
The regulator uses a spring loaded rubber dia-
phragm to uncover a fuel return port. When the fuel
pump becomes operational, fuel flows past the injec-
tor into the regulator, and is restricted from flowing
any further by the blocked return port. When fuel
pressure reaches 270 kPa (39 PSI) it pushes on the
diaphragm, compresses the spring, and uncovers the
fuel return port. The diaphragm and spring con-
stantly move from an open to closed position keeping
fuel pressure consistent.
THROTTLE BODY
The throttle body assembly (Fig. 18) is mounted on
top of the intake manifold. It contains the fuel injec-
tor, pressure regulator, throttle position sensor and
idle air control motor. Air flow through the throttle
body is controlled by a cable operated throttle blade
located in the base of the throttle body. The throttle
body itself provides the chamber for metering, atom-
izing, and mixing fuel with the air entering the en-
gine.
