Automatic Transmission (V12) Powertrain
Engine Speed
The engine speed is provided by an open collector signal supplied from the engine management control module
(ECM).
Throttle Position
This signal, from the ECM, performs the following two functions:
1.
2.
Engine Torque (and warm-up)
This signal, from the ECM, performs the following three functions:
1. During cranking to convey the completion of an engine warm
-up cycle to TCM.
2. To convey engine torque information, under normal running conditions, to TCM.
3. To convey engine torque fault signals to TCM.
Engine ‘warm
-up’ cycle commences from ignition ON until 500ms after the engine exceeds 400rpm. After this time
delay either an engine torque, or torque fault signal will be transmitted.
Transmission Input Speed
The transmission input speed sensor is mounted within the transmission housing and produces a variable frequency
signal, directly proportional to forward clutch housing rotational speed which is transmitted to the TCM. Sensor resis- tance equals 1.25kQ f 0.25.
Transmission Output Speed
The transmission output speed sensor is mounted within the transmission housing and produces a variable frequency
signal, directly proportional to the rear carrier rotational speed which is transmitted to the TCM. Sensor resistance
equals
1.25w2 + 0.25.
hake Application
When a brake application signal is received, due to brake switch operation, the torque convertor clutch lock-up sole- noid is de-energized, releasing lock-up mode if already applied
Transmission Oil Temperature
The transmission oil temperature sensor, located within the internal harness, monitors oil temperature and transmits a corresponding signal to the TCM.
To convey throttle position information to the TCM.
To indicate fault conditions between ECM and throttle potentiometer.
8.2.4.2 OUTPUTS
Gear Shift Solenoids
The two gear shift solenoids, located within the transmission housing, determine gear ratio when the selector is in any
of the forward gear positions.
Force Motor
The force motor, mounted within the transmission housing acts as a transmission torque fluid pressure regulator.
Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) Solenoid
The torque converter clutch solenoid, mounted within the transmission housing, provides a direct drive from the en- gine, via the converter clutch, to the driven wheels, giving the efficiency of a manual gearbox. The solenoid also pro- vides a ’ramp‘ apply and release to engage / disengage the clutch gently.

Engine
Torque Reduction and Malfunction Indication
This signal, to the ECM, has three modes of operation.
1. To indicate normal engine operation to the ECM.
2. During gearshifts, to request reduction of engine torque
3. During fault conditions, to inform the ECM.
During normal operation
theTCM outputs a constant duty cycle signal to the ECM. The signal is changed when torque
reduction is required to indicate to the ECM the degree of ignition retardation necessary. If a fault condition, relating
to OBD
II CARB legislation, occurs the TCM will transmit a signal to the ECM relating this event. The ECM will only
respond to this signal if its duration is 100 milli-seconds or longer.
If the signal from the torque reduction line is either HIGH or LOW for 2 or more seconds the EMS will recognise that
a fault may be present and transmit this information to the TCM.
If the signal from the torque reduction line lasts for 2 or more seconds the EMS will return to normal operation.
Sport Mode Indicator Lamp
The sport mode indicator lamp, mounted on the instrument panel, is illuminate when sport mode is selected and the
ignition switch is ON. Sport mode is selected at a two position switch mounted to the rear of the gear selector assembly.
Gearbox Failure Warning Lamp
The gearbox failure warning lamp, mounted on the instrument panel, is illuminated when afault is detected bytheTCM within the transmission electrical or mechanical systems.
Vehicle Speed (12 cylinder vehicles only)
This output signal is calculated from the transmission output speed and supplied to the ECM as an indication of vehicle
speed.

Brakes (a)
The input frequency of each sensor signal is translated, by the ABS /TC CM, into a comparable wheel speed. Should
any sensed speed be in excess of 330 km / h the relevant sensor is designated 'faulty' and ABS /TC control disabled.
Similarly ABS/TCcontrol is inhibited (switched off until fault condition is cleared) at speeds up to 40 km/ h whenfre- quency fluctuations are detected that are inconsistent with wheel rotation. At speeds above 40 km / h both systems
are disabled when inconsistencies are detected.
Traction control (where fitted) is achieved by using
a small motor and pulley arrangement to adjust the position of the
throttle flap. Under normal operating conditions the system is enabled by default. Operation of the Traction OFF / ON switch, located on the RH side of the fascia switch pack, disables the system and illuminates the TRACTION OFF lamp
located in the instrument pack.
Control is effected to prevent wheel spin by regulating (reducing) the throttle flap position, irrespective of the acceler
-
ator pedal position, using sensor signal comparisons and applying braking force to the wheel affected. Precise posi- tioning of the flap is achieved by monitoring the position of a throttle position sensor. When traction control is
requested
a gearshift inhibit signal is transmitted to the traction control module and cruise control (if selected) is dis- abled.

12.3 COMPONENT DESCRlPTlONS
ABS / TC CM (3 Fig. 1)
The ABS / TC CM, located just below the hydraulic valve
block on the bulkhead, is the system controller and pro-
cesses all thevarious information supplied from the external
sensors and probes. The unit monitors ABS / TC operation
giving fault indication and disabling the systems when de- fects are detected. The unit is self testing and cannot be fault
diagnosed beyond 'black box' level i.e. faulty module. Sys-
tem fault codes are stored in a non-volatile memory for in- terrogation by external diagnostic equipment.
Solenoid Valves (2 Fig. 1)
The solenoid operated hydraulic valves, located within the
hydraulic module valve block, regulate the supply of pres- sure to the braking circuits allowing individual control of all wheels with a full ABS /TC system.
Nnfe: For ABS only, the driving (rear) wheels are con-
trolled by a common braking circuit.
The traction control system isolating valve has the
same characteristics as
a normally open valve. a
Hydraulic Pump /Motor Unit (1 Fig. 1)
This unit, located above the hydraulic valve block, ensures
that brake fluid is transmitted around the system at the cor- rect operating pressure. The 250W ds. motor draws 32A
current at peak operation and has an internal resistance of 0.m.
Wheel Speed Sensors (Fig. 2)
The four wheel speed sensors are identical in function and
construction. Wheel rotation creates the signal within the
sensor. This signal is supplied to the ABS /TC
CM where it provides wheel speed information. The sensor coil has a re- sistance value of 1.1 k Q and will have a voltage of 2.5V pres- ent on each connecting pin when the vehicle is stationary.
Throttle Flap Actuator Motor / Position Sensor (Fig. 3)
The throttle flap actuator motor, mounted adjacent tothe hy- draulic control unit, adjusts throttle position, irrespective of
accelerator pedal position, by regulating throttle opening
when traction control is demanded. The actuator motor
nominal 12V terminal voltage is supplied by ABS
/ TC CMduring normal operation. The motor has an internal re- sistance of approximately 1.6Q. The throttle position sensor
supplies information relative to the position of its centre tap
to the ABS
/ TC CM which regulates actuator movement.
The sensor has a resistance of 6.4 K!2. Aterminal voltage of 5V is supplied by ABS/TC CM to connection 3 during normal
operation,voltage between connections 1 and 2 will vary be- tween 0 and 5V dependant on wiper position.

14.2.3 Solar Sensor (Fig. 1)
The solar sensor is mounted on top of the facia, between the
facia defrost grilles.
The sensor isconstructed around
a photo-diode to measure
direct sunlight. The sensor provides an output response sig-
nal totheA1CCM;thisensuresthe in-cartemperaturestabil- ity whilst reducing outlet temperature to compensate for
solar load heating. The solar sensor is fitted to aircondition- ing vehicles only.
14.2.4 Engine Speed Signal
The A 1 CCM receives an engine speed signal from the En- gine Control Module (ECM).
This signal facilitates compressor lock sensing (12 cyl. ve- hicles only).
This signal also aids the A
1 CCM inhibition of the heated
screen relays. At engine speeds lower than 800 RPM the A I CCM assumes poor idle or engine not running and will not
permit the selection of the heated screens.
14.2.5 Ambient Temperature Sensor (Fig. 2)
The ambient temperature sensor is located within the LH
brake cooling duct.
The sensor detects exterior airtemperature and provides the
A
I CCM with a signal to allow compensation for ambient
conditions.
The A
1 CCM is then capable of informing the control panel of the ambient air temperature in both Centigrade and
Fahrenheit, and updates the information every four
seconds.
The sensor is damped and
so does not detect temperature
fluctuations as quickly as other temperature sensors. This
facility prevents temporary temperature fluctuations affec
- ting overall temperature control.
14.2.6 Vehicle Speed Signal
The A 1 CCM receives a road speed signal from the instru- ment pack, derived from the ABS 1 TC CM.
This signal is required to control the blower fan speed to mi
- nimise the effects of ram air, i.e. blower fan speed changes
in proportion to vehicle road speed.
The signal also determines the frequency
at which the ambi- ent air temperature is updated. The road speed compensa-
tion for blower control is inhibited when the selected
temperature is 'LO (maximum cooling) and 'HI' (maximum
heating) and defrost mode.
14.2.7 Evaporator Temperature Sensor
Located next to the evaporator fins, the sensor detects the air temperature leaving the evaporator, and sends this sig- nal to the A 1 CCM.
When the temperature approaches
OOC, the A 1 CCM disen-
gages the compressor to prevent freezing conditions. When
thetemperature rises above3OC.theAlCCM re-engagesthe
compressor.

14.2.8 Heater Matrix Temperature Sensor
This sensor is positioned inside the air conditioning unit just
downstream of the heater matrix. The sensor monitors the
post
-heater air temperature, before the air is distributed to
the passenger compartment. In conjunction with the A / CCM this sensor provides the input to maintain a constant
outlet temperature.
14.2.9 Coolant Temperature Signal
This input is required to provide blower inhibit control, to
avoid cold
air being delivered in heating mode when the en- gine coolant temperature is below 3OOC. The input also
monitors the temperature of the coolant delivered to the
heater matrix to assist outlet temperature control.
14.2. IO Compressor ON Signal
This signal line monitors the compressor relay to inform the
A/ CCM of the compressor status and to facilitate lock detec-
tion and error sensing.
14.2.11 Motorized In-car Aspirator (Fig. 1)
The Motorized In-car Aspirator (MIA) detects the air tem- perature within the passenger compartment. A small motor
driven fan (blown aspirator) draws air across the thermistor,
which changes its electrical resistances in response to
changes in air temperature, converting
a temperature rating
into an electrical signal.
The MIA is located on the back of the driver's side knee
bolster.
14.2.12 Compressor Lock Signal - 12 cy/. vehicles only
This signal provides the A / CCM with compressor rotation
speed. This is then compared with engine rotation speed.
If the ratio of the compressor speed against engine speed
drops belowthe A/CCM limits, indicating compressor/ belt
slippage, the compressor clutch is disengaged.
When compressor clutch disengaging commences the A/C
LED on the control panel will flash once per second.
14.2.13 Refrigerant Pressure Switch (A/C Vehicles only)
The refrigerant pressure switch (Fig. 2) is located under the
hood on the liquid line.
The switch contacts open when abnormal pressures are
sensed. This action inhibits the compressor clutch drive.
14.2.14 Water Valve
The water valve is used in conjunction with the water pump
to regulate the output air temperature. The water valve is off when the ignition is on, engine not running.
14.2.15 Water Pump
The water pump is energized in all engine running modes
except for under cold coolant condition at blower inhibit and
in panel
off mode. The water pump is off when the ignition
is on, engine not running.
