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
O2S input (along with other inputs) and adjusts the
injector pulse width accordingly. During Open Loop
operation the PCM ignores the O2 sensor input. The
PCM adjusts injector pulse width based on prepro-
grammed (fixed) values and inputs from other sen-
sors.
The Automatic Shutdown (ASD) relay supplies bat-
tery voltage to both the upstream and downstream
heated oxygen sensors. The oxygen sensors are
equipped with a heating element. The heating ele-
ments reduce the time required for the sensors to
reach operating temperature.
UPSTREAM HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR
The upstream O2S is located in the exhaust mani-
fold and provides an input voltage to the PCM. The
input tells the PCM the oxygen content of the
exhaust gas (Fig. 16) or (Fig. 17) or (Fig. 18). The
PCM uses this information to fine tune the air/fuel
ratio by adjusting injector pulse width.
DOWNSTREAM HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR
The downstream heated oxygen sensor threads into
the outlet pipe at the rear of the catalytic convertor
(Fig. 19). The downstream heated oxygen sensor
input is used to detect catalytic convertor deteriora-
tion. As the convertor deteriorates, the input from
the downstream sensor begins to match the upstream
sensor input except for a slight time delay. By com-
paring the downstream heated oxygen sensor input
to the input from the upstream sensor, the PCM cal-
culates catalytic convertor efficiency.When the catalytic converter efficiency drops below
emission standards, the PCM stores a diagnostic
trouble code and illuminates the Malfunction Indica-
tor Lamp (MIL). For more information, refer to
Group 25 - Emission Control Systems.
KNOCK SENSORÐPCM INPUT
The knock sensor is only on the 2.4/3.3/3.8L
engines, not used on the 3.0L engine.
The knock sensor threads into the side of the cyl-
inder block in front of the starter (Fig. 20) or (Fig.
21). When the knock sensor detects a knock in one of
the cylinders, it sends an input signal to the PCM. In
response, the PCM retards ignition timing for all cyl-
inders by a scheduled amount.
Knock sensors contain a piezoelectric material
which sends an input voltage (signal) to the PCM. As
the intensity of the engine knock vibration increases,
the knock sensor output voltage also increases.

REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION (Continued)

A defective fuel injection pump, defective fuel tim-
ing solenoid or misadjusted mechanical pump timing
can cause starting problems or prevent the engine
from revving up. It can also cause:
²Engine surge at idle
²Rough idle (warm engine)
²Low power
²Excessive fuel consumption
²Poor performance
²Low power
²Black smoke from the exhaust
²Blue or white fog like exhaust
²Incorrect idle or maximum speed
The electronically controlled fuel pump has no
mechanical governor like older mechanically con-
trolled fuel pumps. Do not remove the top cover of
the fuel pump, or the screws fastening the wiring
pigtail to the side of the pump.The warranty of
the injection pump and the engine may be void
if those seals have been removed or tampered
with.
FUEL SUPPLY RESTRICTIONS
LOW±PRESSURE LINES
Restricted or Plugged supply lines or fuel filter can
cause a timing fault that will cause the PCM to oper-
ate the engine in a ªLimp Homeº mode. See the
introduction of the Fuel Injection System in this
group for more information on the Limp Home mode.
Fuel supply line restrictions can cause starting prob-
lems and prevent the engine from revving up. The
starting problems include; low power and blue or
white fog like exhaust. Test all fuel supply lines for
restrictions or blockage. Flush or replace as neces-
sary. Bleed the fuel system of air once a fuel supply
line has been replaced. Refer to the Air Bleed Proce-
dure section of this group for procedures.
HIGH±PRESSURE LINES
Restricted (kinked or bent) high±pressure lines can
cause starting problems, poor engine performance
and black smoke from exhaust.
Examine all high±pressure lines for any damage.
Each radius on each high±pressure line must be
smooth and free of any bends or kinks.
Replace damaged, restricted or leaking high±pres-
sure fuel lines with the correct replacement line.
CAUTION: The high±pressure fuel lines must be
clamped securely in place in the holders. The lines
cannot contact each other or other components. Do
not attempt to weld high±pressure fuel lines or to
repair lines that are damaged. Only use the recom-
mended lines when replacement of high±pressure
fuel line is necessary.
FUEL SHUTDOWN SOLENOID TEST
Since diesel fuel injection does not use spark plugs
to start combustion, the only way to stop the engine
is to cut off the fuel supply. This is done with the
Fuel Shutdown Solenoid. If the engine cranks, but
refuses to start, it may be caused by a defective fuel
shutdown solenoid.
The fuel shutdown solenoid is not controlled
or operated by the PCM.Voltage to operate the
solenoid is supplied from the ignition (key) switch.
NOTE: Although the fuel shutdown solenoid is not
operated by the PCM, if the Fuel Shutdown Solenoid
has been disconnected, and the key turned on, the
PCM will sense that the solenoid is not in the circuit,
and will switch to a ªLimp Homeº mode. After recon-
necting the solenoid, the PCM will have to be reset
by clearing the codes with the DRBIII scan tool, or
disconnecting the vehicle's battery for several min-
utes. The DRBIII scan tool is the preferred method
for resetting the PCM. Refer to the 1998 GS 2.5L Die-
sel Powertrain Diagnostic Manual for procedure.
The fuel shutdown (shut±off) solenoid is used to
electrically shut off the diesel fuel supply to the high-
±pressure fuel injection pump. The solenoid is
mounted to the rear of the injection pump (Fig. 23).
The solenoid controls starting and stopping of the
engine regardless of the position of the accelerator
pedal. When the ignition (key) switch is OFF, the sole-
noid is shut off and fuel flow is not allowed to the fuel
injection pump. When the key is placed in the ON or
