8.2.3 OPERATING PRlNClPL ES
The electronic control system is split into four main functional areas:
0 Shift Point Control
0 Lock-up Control
0 Pressure Modulation
0 Engine Torque Control
0
Shift Point Control
The optimum gear ratio is selected as a function of transmission output speed, engine load, position of selector switch
and program switch.
Lock-up Control
The torque converter clutch is engaged as a function of load, output speed, gear selected and drive program. Lock-up
is possible in second, third and fourth gear. Apply and release quality is controlled by the pulse width modulated pres-
sure regulator solenoid.
Pressure Modulation
Hydraulic pressure in the transmission shift friction elements is accurately matched to transmission output torque
using an electrically operated solenoid valve to control pressure level. Transmission input torque is calculated from
an output torque value, supplied by EMS, and converter slip.
Engine Torque Control
Engine torque control reduces the energy dissipated within the system during gear shifts. The effect of this control
increase the transmission service life by reducing slippage time, increases comfort by reducing clutch torque trans- mission and allows a greater transfer of power by the transmission unit.
8.2.4 INPUTS / OUTPUTS
8.2.4.1 INPUTS
Transmission Range
The transmission range is detectec ,ythe pressureswitch manifold located within the transmission unit. The manifold
transmits a coded message to the TCM indicating gear selector position.
Performance Mode Select
Performance mode select uses a two wire input to the TCM allowing selection of different transmission operating
modes.
Line A; Used for selection of traction control shift pattern and controlled
by the ABS /TC CM.
Line
B; Used for selection of 'Normal' or 'Sports' mode, manually selected at a two position rocker switch mounted
on the gear selector unit. Switch resistance is equal to or greaterthan look$, open circuit and equal to or less than 0.5$ closed circuit, measured across contacts at a current of 10mA.
Kickdown Switch
This signal is controlled by the operation ofthe kickdown switch on depression of the accelerator pedal to its full extent.
The switch remains in 'normally open' position until contact with the pedal closes the contacts. Switch resistance is
equal to or greater than look$, open circuit, and equal to or less than 0.5$ closed circuit, measured across contacts at
a current of
10Ma.
Calibration Select
The calibration select input allows identification of different vehicle specifications, ie 4.0 liter supercharged, or 6.0 liter (V12). The link, to ground, from the TCM is either short or open circuit, dependant upon internal software calibration
for each vehicle variant.

15.1 SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM
15.1.1 System Description
The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) installation comprises:
0 electronic Diagnostic Module (DM)
0 driver and passenger-side air bag modules (including firing mechanisms)
0 two front impact sensors (left and right)
0 one safing sensor
0 dedicated wiring harness
0 two cable reel cassettes (integral part of the steering column harness)
0 Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) and driver information message
The system is designed to provide protection for both driver and front seat passenger by automatically deploying air
bags in the event of a collision during forward travel. The driver
-side air bag is located in the centre of the steering
wheel assembly and the passenger-side air bag in the fascia panel.
In the event of a collision the impact
/ safing sensors operate, completing the electrical firing circuit and causing the
air bags to inflate within 32 milliseconds. At least two of the three sensors (at least one impact, and the safing sensor)
.must be activated to initiate firing. System operation is dependent upon battery voltage supplied directly, and via the
ignition switch, to the DM and the correct installation and operation of all system components, including the wiring
harness. Faults in system components, installation or wiring will be indicated by the MIL Lamp, located on the instru
- ment panel, which will illuminate 'SRS AIR BAG'. Indication is also given by the driver information message'AIR BAG'
displayed on the LCD panel below the speedometer.
15.1.2.1 Diagnostic Module (Fig. I)
The Diagnostic Module (DM), mounted below the passenger-side air bag module, behind the console fascia panel, is
the electronic microprocessor unit which monitors the whole SRS system. The state of the three system sensors, two
air bag modules and the wiring harness is monitored constantly to detect activation criteria and component faults.
15.1.2 COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONS
The unit also confirms correct supply conditions by compar- ing a direct battery voltage input with an input, via the igni- tion switch, of the same voltage value. Detection of system
faults will be relayed by the DM to the instrument panel and
the air bag MIL Lamp illuminated.
The DM contains a reserve power supply unit, enabling the
air bagsto fire even if supply voltage is lost during an impact
situation. The reserve power charge will be retained for ap
- proximately one minute after the positive supply voltage is
disconnected. An auxiliary internal circuit, known as the
'dwell enhancer', provides a temporary ground to compen
- sate for damaged primary crash sensors. If either primary
crash sensor operates for 5 milliseconds the 'dwell en- hancer' circuit will turn on, completing the firing circuit to
ground for 90 milliseconds. The purpose of this is to allow
air bag deployment even if the operated primary crash sen- sor circuit is defective or opens.
15.1.2.2 Wiring Harness
Fig. 1
A dedicated wiring harness, covered with yellow sheathing, independent of any other vehicle system, is used to electri- cally connect all the component items. To allow movement of the steering mechanism, two cable reel cassettes are
incorporated into the driver-side air bag module circuitry, as a means of compensating for steering wheel rotation is
required to prevent harness damage or disconnection. The two cable reel cassettes form an interface between the
steering column and air bag module and, due to their coiled construction, are able to contract or expand as required.
15.1.2.3 Air Bag Modules
The two air bag modules, driver and passenger side, are
each activated when either front impact sensor (Fig. 2) and
the safing sensor operate simultaneously. Both modules
contain a charge of sodium
azide/copper oxide which, when
ignited by an electrical impulse, generate a volume of ni
- trogen gassufficientto inflatetheair bag. Theamountof gas
generated is greater in the passenger-side air bag due to its
larger size. Both modules, including surrounding trim pan- els, are non-serviceable and once activated must be re-
newed as a complete assembly.
