4.2.5 FAULT DIAGNOSIS
4.2.5.1 Introduction
The following diagnostic procedures are provided to assist properly qualified persons to identify and rectify the faults in the system which are most likely to be encountered. Reference is made to the Electrical Diagnostic Manual (EDM), which should be consulted for all electrical faults. When investigating faults relating to temperature, the prevailing
ambient temperature conditions should be taken into account. The climate control system is dealt with in Section 14.

The fuel bowl, retained around the filler neck by a clip, containing a drain tube filter located over the mating drain tube,
is rubber moulded onto a steel armature and fitted to the BIW decking panel by five M5 nuts.
The fuel lid latching assembly fitted to the metal armature of the fuel bowl by an M5 nut, includes the locking pin and
the operating actuator.
The actuator operates from the central locking system driven by the security and locking control module
(SLCM).
The fuel tank, mounted across thevehicle behind the passenger compartment rear bulkhead, is held in position by two
retaining straps, tightened by two M5 fixing arrangements.
The fuel tank of AJ16 engined vehicles contains one fuel pump, supplying fuel to the normally aspirated engine and
two fuel pumps, supplyingfuel to the supercharged engine. They are regenerative turbine pumps supplied by
Nippon- Denso. Nominal operating pressure is 3 bar (3.7 bar for supercharged engine) above the manifold depression and
pump delivery is 90 litredhour minimum at 13.2 volts, 3 bar outlet pressure. The pump(s) draw a nominal current of 7 amperes at 13 volts, 3 bar outlet pressure, ambient temperatures. Built in to the pump assembly is a over-pressure
relief valve which blows at 4.5 - 8.5 bar.
Fuel is drawn by the pumps from the fuel tank and is then supplied to the fuel rail via a
70 micron filter and the fuel
feed line connected in series by fuel filter.
The amount of fuel being injected into the engine
is controlled by the fuel injectors combined with the engine control module (ECM). - Any excessive fuel flowing through the system, is returned to the fuel tankvia the fuel regulator valve mounted on the
fuel rail, the fuel return line and the check valve also located inside the tank.
The two filters prevent contaminants from entering the fuel rail and possible damage to the fuel injectors, the engine,
the pump and the underfloor filter.
The fuel pumps are switched on and off by relays controlled by the engine control module
(ECM).
The second fuel pump for the supercharged engine operates only in the higher speed range, switching on at 4000rpm and off at 3200rpm.
The fuel lines are made up of an assembly, combining steel under floor pipes and flexible conductive anti-permeation
tubing. In orderto perform speedy remove and refit operations, the underfloor steel lines are linked through the engine
bay bulkhead to the flexible tubing, leading to the fuel rail and the fuel regulator by using positive sealing, quick-fit
type connectors. The same type connectors, are used to connect the fuel feed and return line to the fuel tank.
Connectors used inside the engine bay are of different sizes tocorrespond with the difference in pipe diameter, whereas
the connectors for the feed and return lines at the fuel tank are the same size.
Except for the return line connector at the fuel tank, two release tools, one for each size of connector are required to
release all remaining connectors.

The connectors are released by pushing the tool in to the female half of theconnector and at the sametime disengaging
the latches.
Viton hosing surrounds the tubing, thus preventing any po
-
tential damage from fire and other matters.
The conductive anti
-permeation tubing does not return to
its original shape after being deformed. Therefore do not
clamp
(eg. for sealing purposes prior to disconnection of
tubes) as this damages the fuel pipes.
The evaporative
loss control system prevents unprocessed
vapour emitted from the fuel tank from entering the atmos
- phere.
A running-loss control valve (4.0 liter NAS markets only) or
a tank pressure control (Rochester) valve (wherefitted) is in- stalled between the fuel tank and the carbon canister.
Both valves are normally closed, but open during engine
operation. They vent vapours from the fuel tank to the car
- bon canisterb).
On filling up the tank the fuel produces positive pressure in- side the tank which causes only the running loss valve to
close, blocking off the vent line. The Rochester valve is
closed when the engine is off.
The purge valve is controlled by the engine control module (ECM) and is linked to the carbon canister.

Automatic Transmission (AJ16)
Both types of automatic transmission comprise a hydrodynamic torque converter driving an epicyclic gear train which
provides four forward ratios and reverse. Gearshift selection is made by a hydraulic (or electronichydraulic) trans- mission control unit. Six gearshift positions are provided:
Position
'P' (Park) -the driven wheels are mechanically locked at the transmission.
Position
'R' (Reverse) - reverse gear selected.
Position
'N' (Neutral) - engine disconnected from drive-line and wheels.
Position 'D' (Drive)
- all four speed ranges are selected automatically with lock-up available in top gear only.
Position
'3' - automatic selection of the lowest three speed ranges only.
Position '2'
- automatic selection of the lowest two speed ranges only; the transmission is prevented from shift- ing up to the third and top speed ranges.
Immediate selection of a lower ratio is also available, within mapped limits, by 'kick
-down' (pressing the accelerator
pedal down beyond the normal full throttle position) for example when overtaking.
A brake pedal/gearshift interlock is incorporated in the shift lever mechanism. Theshift lever may only be movedfrom
the 'P' (Park) position if the ignition key switch is in position 'll', and the foot brake is applied. The ignition key cannot
be removed from the ignition switch unless the shift lever is in the 'P' (Park) position. Once the ignition key has been
removed, the shift lever is locked in the Park position. The gearshift interlock may be over-ridden manually in the event
of an electrical failure or when it is required to move the vehicle manually for access, ie for removal of the propeller
shaft.
8.1.1.1
Gearshift selection causes the appropriate gear to be selected through a cable operated shift lever on the side of the
Gear Selection (ZF 4HP 22)
transmission unit. When a gea; is selected, the shift points are determined by accelerator pedal position through a
throttle cable connection and by pressures equivalent to road speed derived from a centrifugal governor on the output
shaft.
Gearshift speed and quality are controlled by the hydraulic control unit located in the lower part of the transmission
housing. The control unit contains selector valve, control pistons and pressure valves.
The hydraulic control unit can be overridden by 'kickdown'. This is actuated by the final travel of the accelerator pedal
and causes the next lower gear to be selected.
8.1.1.2
Gearshift selection causes the appropriate gear to be selected through a cable operated shift lever on the side of the
transmission unit; the shift lever also operates a rotary switch attached to the side of the transmission unit. When a
gear is selected, the rotary switch provides an output or combination of outputs to the TCM, which continuously moni
- tors the gear selected in addition to output shaft speed and transmission oil temperature. Information from the Engine
Control Module (ECM) representing engine speed, load and throttle position is also fed to the TCM to enable the most
suitable gear to be selected.
Gear selection and gearshift speeds are controlled by the manually operated selector valve, a solenoid operated pres
- sure regulator and three solenoid valves. On receipt of signalsfrom the TCM, the three solenoid valves MVI, MV2 and
MV3, in various combinations with the safety valve, determine the appropriate gear range. The TCM, on receipt of
information of engine state and road speed, determines the shift speed.
The Performance Mode switch, located on the shift lever surround, provides two alternative shift speed patterns:
1. 'Normal (Economy) Mode' - designed for everyday use.
2. 'Sport Mode'
- gear shift takes place at higher road speeds to enhance performance.
The 'kick
-down' switch, located beneath the accelerator pedal, is actuated by the final travel of the pedal and signals
to the TCM that the next lower gear is to be selected.
