1999 DODGE RAM Fuel pressure

PCM also operates A/C compressor clutch (if A/C is requested)\
through A/C clutch relay. When engine reaches operating temperature,
vehicle will go into idle mode and PCM will begin monitoring HO2S
input and go into closed loop operation.
* Idle - When engine is at operating temperature, this is a
closed loop mode. In idle mode, PCM now adds HO2S signal to
array of inputs used in ENGINE WARM-UP mode. PCM maintains
correct air/fuel ratio by adjusting injector pulse width and
ignition timing. PCM also controls A/C clutch operation (if
A/C is requested).
* Cruise - When engine is at operating temperature, this is a
closed loop mode. Using information from A/C switch, battery
voltage, CKP sensor, ECT sensor, IAT sensor, MAP sensor and
CMP sensor. PCM also monitors A/C request and P/N switch (A/T
only), TP sensor and VSS signals for fuel calculation. PCM
monitors HO2S and adjusts air/fuel ratio as needed. PCM
controls engine idle speed through IAC motor. PCM controls
spark advance as necessary.
* Acceleration - This is an open loop mode. When PCM
recognizes an abrupt increase in throttle position or
manifold pressure as a demand for increased engine output, it
increases injector pulse width in response to increased fuel
demand. HO2S signals are ignored.
* Deceleration - This is an open loop mode when engine is at
operating temperature and under deceleration. When PCM
receives inputs signaling a closed throttle and an abrupt
decrease in manifold pressure, it reduces injector pulse
width to lean air/fuel mixture. Under certain RPM and closed
throttle position conditions, HO2S signals are ignored and
PCM cuts off fuel injection until idle speed is reached. PCM
also drives IAC motor for smooth transition to idle mode.
* Wide Open Throttle - This is an open loop mode. When PCM
senses wide open throttle, it grounds fuel injectors in
sequence, it ignores HO2S input and it controls pulse width
to supply a pre-determined amount of additional fuel. PCM
also adjusts spark advance and disengages A/C clutch for
approximately 15 seconds.
* Ignition Switch Off - This is an open loop mode. PCM drives
IAC motor into position in anticipation of next start-up. All
outputs are turned off, no inputs are monitored and PCM shuts
down.
Sequential Fuel Injection (SFI)
Individual, electrically pulsed injectors (one per cylinder)
are located in intake manifold runners. These injectors are next to
intake valves in intake manifold. PCM controls injection timing based
on crankshaft position signal input. PCM regulates air/fuel mixture by
length of time injector stays open (pulse width) based on inputs from
HO2S, ECT sensor, MAP and other sensors.
IDLE SPEED
NOTE: DO NOT attempt to correct a high idle speed condition by
turning factory sealed throttle body throttle plate set
screw. This will not change idle speed of warm engine, but
may cause cold start problems due to restricted airflow.
Idle Air Control (IAC) Motor
IAC motor adjusts idle speed to compensate for engine load
and ambient temperature by adjusting amount of air flowing through by-
pass in back of throttle body. PCM uses ECT sensor, VSS, TP sensor and

PCM controls operation of electric cooling fan. PCM operates fan
through radiator fan relay by grounding or ungrounding relay control
circuit. PCM regulates engine idle speed through IAC motor when fan is
on.
SHIFT INDICATOR LIGHT
PCM provides ground for shift indicator light on models
equipped with manual transmission. Based on engine speed, throttle
position, and vehicle speed, PCM turns shift indicator light on to
advise driver to shift to a higher gear for optimum fuel economy.
SPEED CONTROL SERVO
System is electrically actuated and vacuum operated. Controls
are located on steering wheel. Controls consist of 3 buttons: OFF/ON,
RESUME/ACCEL and SET/DECEL. Speed control servo is controlled by PCM.
System will operate at 35-85 MPH.
TACHOMETER
PCM provides signal to drive tachometer.
TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH (TCC) SOLENOID
PCM controls torque converter lock-up through TCC solenoid.
PCM controls lock-up according to various operating conditions.
TRANSMISSION GOVERNOR SOLENOID
PCM controls solenoid to regulate line pressure for shift
control.
TRANSMISSION OVERDRIVE/OVERRIDE (OD/OR) SWITCH INDICATOR
LIGHT
PCM controls indicator light on OD/OR switch on models
equipped with overdrive automatic transmission.
TRANSMISSION OVERDRIVE (OD) SOLENOID
On models equipped with OD transmission, PCM controls 3-4 OD
upshift and downshift through OD solenoid. PCM determines optimum OD
shift scheduling for all operating conditions.
