1995 JEEP XJ coolant temperature

coolant temperature drops to 98ÉC (208ÉF). Refer to
Group 7, Cooling Systems for more information.
The relay is located in the power distribution cen-
ter (PDC) (Fig. 25).
The electric radiator cooling fan is not used on YJ
models.
SCI TRANSMITÐPCM OUTPUT
SCI Transmit is the serial data communication
transmit circuit for the DRB scan tool. The power-
train control module (PCM) transmits data to the
DRB through the SCI Transmit circuit.
SHIFT INDICATORÐPCM OUTPUT
Vehicles equipped with manual transmissions have
an Up-Shift indicator lamp. The lamp is controlled by
the powertrain control module (PCM). The lamp illu-
minates on the instrument panel to indicate when
the driver should shift to the next highest gear for
best fuel economy. The PCM will turn the lamp OFF
after 3 to 5 seconds if the shift of gears is not per-
formed. The up-shift lamp will remain off until vehi-
cle stops accelerating and is brought back to range of
up-shift lamp operation. This will also happen if ve-
hicle is shifted into fifth gear.
The indicator lamp is normally illuminated when
the ignition switch is turned on and it is turned off
when the engine is started up. With the engine run-
ning, the lamp is turned on/off depending upon en-
gine speed and load.
SPEED CONTROLÐPCM OUTPUT
Speed control operation is regulated by the power-
train control module (PCM). The PCM controls the
vacuum to the throttle actuator through the speed
control vacuum and vent solenoids. Refer to Group
8H for speed control information.
TACHOMETERÐPCM OUTPUT
The powertrain control module (PCM) supplies en-
gine rpm values to the instrument cluster tachometer
(if equipped). Refer to Group 8E for tachometer infor-
mation.

The transmission mounted torque converter clutch
(TCC) solenoid is used to control the torque con-
verter. The solenoid is controlled through the power-
train control module (PCM) and by the TCC relay.
This relay is used only on vehicles equipped with a
3-speed automatic transmission.
An electrical output signal is sent from the PCM to
the TCC relay after the PCM receives information
from the vehicle speed, MAP, throttle position and
engine coolant temperature sensors. After the TCC
relay receives this necessary information, it will send
a signal to the torque converter clutch solenoid to
control the torque converter.
On YJ models the TCC relay is located in the en-
gine compartment, on the cowl panel and near the
battery (Fig. 26). On XJ models the TCC relay is lo-
cated in the power distribution center (PDC) (Fig.
25).
AIR CLEANER
The air cleaner assembly used on all models (Figs.
27 or 28) is open to ambient air. The blend air door
and vacuum motor that was used on engines of pre-
vious model years to supply heated air, is no longer
used. The air cleaner housing contains the engine air
cleaner element.

JFUEL SYSTEM COMPONENT DESCRIPTION/SYSTEM OPERATION 14 - 29

²The powertrain control module (PCM) pre-posi-
tions the idle air control (IAC) motor.
²The PCM determines atmospheric air pressure
from the MAP sensor input to determine basic fuel
strategy.
²The PCM monitors the engine coolant temperature
sensor input. The PCM modifies fuel strategy based
on this input.
²Intake manifold air temperature sensor input is
monitored
²Throttle position sensor (TPS) is monitored
²The auto shutdown (ASD) relay is energized by the
PCM for approximately three seconds.
²The fuel pump is energized through the fuel pump
relay by the PCM. The fuel pump will operate for ap-
proximately three seconds unless the engine is oper-
ating or the starter motor is engaged
²The O2S sensor heater element is energized
through the fuel pump relay. The O2S sensor input is
not used by the PCM to calibrate air-fuel ratio dur-
ing this mode of operation.
²The up-shift indicator lamp is illuminated (manual
transmission only).
ENGINE START-UP MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. The following actions
occur when the starter motor is engaged.
The powertrain control module (PCM) receives in-
puts from:
²Battery voltage
²Engine coolant temperature sensor
²Crankshaft position sensor
²Intake manifold air temperature sensor
²Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
²Throttle position sensor (TPS)
²Starter motor relay
²Camshaft position sensor signal
The PCM monitors the crankshaft position sensor.
If the PCM does not receive a crankshaft position
sensor signal within 3 seconds of cranking the en-
gine, it will shut down the fuel injection system.
The fuel pump is activated by the PCM through
the fuel pump relay.
Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the
PCM. The PCM will then control the injection se-
quence and injector pulse width by turning the
ground circuit to each individual injector on and off.
The PCM determines the proper ignition timing ac-
cording to input received from the crankshaft posi-
tion sensor.
ENGINE WARM-UP MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. During engine warm-
up, the powertrain control module (PCM) receives in-
puts from:
²Battery voltage
²Crankshaft position sensor
²Engine coolant temperature sensor²Intake manifold air temperature sensor
²Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
²Throttle position sensor (TPS)
²Camshaft position sensor signal (in the distribu-
tor)
²Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signalÐauto.
trans. only)
²Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
²Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
Based on these inputs the following occurs:
²Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the
powertrain control module (PCM). The PCM will
then control the injection sequence and injector pulse
width by turning the ground circuit to each individ-
ual injector on and off.
²The PCM adjusts engine idle speed through the
idle air control (IAC) motor and adjusts ignition tim-
ing.
²The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch
through the clutch relay. This is done if A/C has been
selected by the vehicle operator and requested by the
A/C thermostat.
²If the vehicle has a manual transmission, the up-
shift lamp is operated by the PCM.
²When engine has reached operating temperature,
the PCM will begin monitoring O2S sensor input.
The system will then leave the warm-up mode and go
into closed loop operation.
IDLE MODE
When the engine is at operating temperature, this
is a Closed Loop mode. At idle speed, the powertrain
control module (PCM) receives inputs from:
²Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
²Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
²Battery voltage
²Crankshaft position sensor
²Engine coolant temperature sensor
²Intake manifold air temperature sensor
²Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
²Throttle position sensor (TPS)
²Camshaft position sensor signal (in the distribu-
tor)
²Battery voltage
²Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signalÐauto.
trans. only)
²Oxygen sensor
Based on these inputs, the following occurs:
²Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the
powertrain control module (PCM). The PCM will
then control injection sequence and injector pulse
width by turning the ground circuit to each individ-
ual injector on and off.
²The PCM monitors the O2S sensor input and ad-
justs air-fuel ratio by varying injector pulse width. It
also adjusts engine idle speed through the idle air
control (IAC) motor.
JFUEL SYSTEM COMPONENT DESCRIPTION/SYSTEM OPERATION 14 - 31

²The PCM adjusts ignition timing by increasing
and decreasing spark advance.
²The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch
through the clutch relay. This happens if A/C has
been selected by the vehicle operator and requested
by the A/C thermostat.
The optional Extended Idle Switch is used to raise
the engine idle speed to approximately 1000 rpm.
This is when the shifter is in either the Park or Neu-
tral position. A rocker-type 2-wire switch (extended
idle switch) is mounted to the instrument panel. This
switch will supply a ground circuit to the powertrain
control module (PCM).The switch is available
only with 4.0L engine when supplied with the
optional police package.
CRUISE MODE
When the engine is at operating temperature, this
is a Closed Loop mode. At cruising speed, the power-
train control module (PCM) receives inputs from:
²Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
²Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
²Battery voltage
²Engine coolant temperature sensor
²Crankshaft position sensor
²Intake manifold air temperature sensor
²Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
²Throttle position sensor (TPS)
²Camshaft position sensor signal (in the distribu-
tor)
²Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signalÐauto.
trans. only)
²Oxygen (O2S) sensor
Based on these inputs, the following occurs:
²Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the
PCM. The PCM will then adjust the injector pulse
width by turning the ground circuit to each individ-
ual injector on and off.
²The PCM monitors the O2S sensor input and ad-
justs air-fuel ratio. It also adjusts engine idle speed
through the idle air control (IAC) motor.
²The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the
ground path to the coil on and off.
²The PCM operates the A/C compressor clutch
through the clutch relay. This happens if A/C has
been selected by the vehicle operator and requested
by the A/C thermostat.
ACCELERATION MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. The powertrain control
module (PCM) recognizes 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 in-
creased throttle opening.
DECELERATION MODE
When the engine is at operating temperature, this
is an Open Loop mode. During hard deceleration, the
powertrain control module (PCM) receives the follow-
ing inputs.
²Air conditioning select signal (if equipped)
²Air conditioning request signal (if equipped)
²Battery voltage
²Engine coolant temperature sensor
²Crankshaft position sensor
²Intake manifold air temperature sensor
²Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
²Throttle position sensor (TPS)
²Camshaft position sensor signal (in the distribu-
tor)
²Park/neutral switch (gear indicator signalÐauto.
trans. only)
If the vehicle is under hard deceleration with the
proper rpm and closed throttle conditions, the PCM
will ignore the oxygen sensor input signal. The PCM
will enter a fuel cut-off strategy in which it will not
supply battery voltage to the injectors. If a hard de-
celeration does not exist, the PCM will determine the
proper injector pulse width and continue injection.
Based on the above inputs, the PCM will adjust en-
gine idle speed through the idle air control (IAC) mo-
tor.
The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the
ground path to the coil on and off.
The PCM opens the ground circuit to the A/C
clutch relay to disengage the A/C compressor clutch.
This is done until the vehicle is no longer under de-
celeration (if the A/C system is operating).
WIDE OPEN THROTTLE MODE
This is an Open Loop mode. During wide open
throttle operation, the powertrain control module
(PCM) receives the following inputs.
²Battery voltage
²Crankshaft position sensor
²Engine coolant temperature sensor
²Intake manifold air temperature sensor
²Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
²Throttle position sensor (TPS)
²Camshaft position sensor signal (in the distribu-
tor)
During wide open throttle conditions, the following
occurs:
²Voltage is applied to the fuel injectors with the
powertrain control module (PCM). The PCM will
then control the injection sequence and injector pulse
width by turning the ground circuit to each individ-
ual injector on and off. The PCM ignores the oxygen
sensor input signal and provides a predetermined
amount of additional fuel. This is done by adjusting
injector pulse width.
²The PCM adjusts ignition timing by turning the
ground path to the coil on and off.
