APP Sensor
303-050
APP SENSORAccelerator Pedal Position (APP)
Sensor
The APP sensor is driven directly by the pedal
pivot shaft and is connected via the wiring
harness to the powertrain control module (PCM).
The sensor is a single assembly comprising three
rotary, carbon track potentiometers with
contacting wipers. Each potentiometer has a
discrete 5V reference/return supplied from the
PCM and provides an independent analogue
output voltage to the PCM. As described for the
TP sensor, the characteristics of the three
potentiometers (angle/output voltage) differ so as
to provide unique identification to the PCM. Note
that while the TP and APP sensor characteristics,
as shown, have a general similarity, actual values
of voltage, slope and angular range for each type
of sensor is different.
Further system redundancy is provided by the use
of two pedal return springs.
Control and Operation
Drive Motor Control
The PCM does not drive the throttle motor
directly but sends duplicated control signals to the
TAC module indicating the desired throttle plate
angle. Both signals are pulse width modulated
(PWM) at 256Hz with an increase in duty cycle
indicating a corresponding (linear) increase in
desired throttle angle (ie towards full throttle).
Separate interface circuits within the PCM and
TAC module provide additional signal redundancy.
In response to PCM demand, the TAC module
processes the demand signals and generates the
current drive to the dual winding motor. An
inductive position encoder on the motor shaft
generates feedback signals to the TAC module,
providing closed loop motor control and enabling
the TAC module to maintain the desired angle.
Actual throttle plate angle is measured by the TP
sensor.
The TAC module has two separate feeds from the
vehicle 12V and ground supply, each feed (12V
and ground) being a twisted pair to reduce noise
pick up.
The TAC module also performs self diagnostic
checks:
¥ the two PWM control signals are compared
for validity
¥ the ability of the TAC module to set the
requested throttle angle is monitored¥ operation of the motor drive circuit is
checked
¥ a failed throttle return spring can be detected
¥ failure of one or both motor windings can be
detected
¥ the output of the inductive position encoder
is checked for out of range signals or failure
Diagnostic information from the TAC module is
communicated to the PCM over the twisted pair
SCP link.

Engine Cooling
Cooling System
Engine cooling is via a conventional re-circulation
system between the engine assembly and front
mounted coolant to air radiator. Coolant flow is
from the front of the engine, dividing to pass
around each bank of cylinders towards the rear
and then flowing forward through the cylinder
heads. The coolant from the engine returns to the
top RH side of the radiator, by-pass circuit and
also provides the hot input feed to the cabin
V6 ENGINE COOLING SYSTEMheater system. The bottom hose feeds coolant
from the radiator via the thermostat to the
coolant pump and also provides the cooling
circuit for the oil. A differential pressure orifice in
the bottom hose causes a flow through the engine
mounted oil cooler.
A coolant reservoir system (or de-gas system) is
used which is similar to previous (pre 1998MY)
vehicles.
The reservoir bottle is mounted at the rear left

Automatic TransmissionAJ-V6/AJ28
63 controlled solenoid are mounted on an
integral, replaceable, control module
¥ three speed sensors mounted on the external
casing: turbine speed sensor, intermediate
speed sensor and output speed sensor
¥ an oil temperature sensor is fitted inside the
transmission.
The gear select lever is connected via a Bowden
cable to an operating lever on the left side of the
transmission casing. A digital rotary switch, the
transmission range switch, fits over the shaft of
the operating lever and is fixed by two bolts to
the transmission casing. Selection of a particular
drive function generates a 4 bit binary coded
signal which is transmitted directly to the PCM
over a four wire parallel interface. As on the XK
and XJ Series, lateral movement of the gear select
lever across the gate, D to 4 or 4 to D, operates a
switch which indicates the selected function to
the PCM (the Bowden cable is not actuated
laterally).
The PCM directly controls the transmission
actuators as a response to driver demand, engine
requirements and according to the selected shift
mode. Gear selection is controlled by commands
to the four shift solenoids. If, during gear
selection, the relative speeds monitored by the
speed sensors are not as expected, the PCM
varies the analogue signal to the variable force
solenoids to increase/decrease the clutch pressure
(closed loop control). Increased engagement times
due to ageing are also controlled by adaptive shiftpressure.
Apart from the sports mode and traction mode
selected by the driver, there are pre-programmed
modes selected by the PCM in response to sensed
driving conditions :
¥ increased load such as gradients and trailer
towing
¥ cruise control
¥ hot mode: strategies including clutch lock up
are applied to reduce heat.
Transmission Oil Cooler
The transmission fluid is cooled externally by a
dedicated oil to air radiator which is mounted in
the integral cooling pack between the engine
radiator and A/C condenser and below the PAS
cooler.

Manual Transmission AJ-V6/AJ28
66With a conventional clutch, increased lining wear
causes the angle of the actuating diaphragm
spring to change as the pressure plate moves
axially towards the engine, requiring a greater
force to operate the clutch (diaphragm actuating
force varies with diaphragm angle). The self
adjusting clutch eliminates the problem by
allowing the diaphragm spring to follow the axial
movement of the pressure plate thus maintaining
the diaphragm spring at the same angle
throughout the life of the clutch. As well as
maintaining a constant pedal pressure, the clamp
force on the pressure plate also remains constant
with wear.
The operation is shown in the diagram. The
diaphragm spring is not fixed at its rotation point
like the conventional system but pivots between a
sensor spring and an adjuster ring. The sensor
spring provides a counter force which is just
sufficient to retain the diaphragm spring axially
against the cover via the adjuster ring and during
normal actuation of the clutch. As the linings
wear, the tendency of the diaphragm angle to
change causes an increase in the actuation force
required to operate the clutch. When this
increased effort exceeds the counter force of the
sensor spring, the diaphragm spring moves axially
towards the pressure plate until the original angle
is restored. At this point the actuation force
required drops to the level of the opposing sensor
spring force, restoring equilibrium with the
diaphragm spring at its new location.
During the axial movement of the diaphragm
spring, the increased distance between the spring
and cover is taken up by the adjuster ring. This
ring has fifteen raised segments, each having a
ramp profile which fits into a corresponding
shape in the clutch cover. When the diaphragm
spring moves axially for wear compensation,
three pre-loaded coil springs in the clutch cover
cause the adjuster ring to rotate, moving up the
ramps and taking up the extra distance between
the diaphragm spring and clutch cover.
Note that, in operation, the adjuster ring rotates
in a clockwise direction, as viewed from the
transmission. If a worn driven plate is replaced in
service and the clutch cover assembly is to be re-
used, the adjuster ring must be rotated back to its
pre-loaded position (see JTIS service instructions).
