DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION ELECTRONIC UNIT INJECTOR (EUI)
The EUI’s are located in the top of the engine inside the camshaft cover. There is one EUI per cylinder. They inject
finely atomised fuel directly into the combustion chamber. Each EUI has its own electrical connection, which is
linked to a common harness also located under the camshaft cover. Each of the EUI’s has its own 5 letter grading
code. This code is used so that greater EUI precision is achieved.
Using an injection timing map within its memory and information from the CKP sensor the ECM is able to
determine precise crankshaft angle. When the ECM determines the crankshaft speed and position it closes the
spill valve within the EUI. Fuel pressure rises inside the EUI to a predetermined limit of 1500 bar (22,000 lbf.in
2)on
pre EU3 models, and 1750 bar (25,500 lbf.in2) on EU3 models . At this limit the pintle lifts off its seat allowing the
fuel to inject into the combustion chamber. The ECM de-energises the spill valve to control the quantity of fuel
delivered. This causes a rapid pressure drop within the EUI which allows the EUI return spring to re-seat the
pintle, ending fuel delivery.
The electrical circuit that drives the EUI works in two stages depending on battery voltage. If battery voltage is
between 9 and 16 volts the EUI’s will provide normal engine performance. If however battery voltage falls to
between 6 and 9 volts on pre EU3 models, EUI operation is restricted to a limit of 2100 rev/min. On EU3 models,
EUI operation is restricted to idle. If the vehicle is fitted with a new ECM, the EUI grades for that specific vehicle
must be downloaded to the new ECM using TestBook. In the event of the engine failing to rev above 3000 rev/min
it is probable that the EUI grading has not been completed.
Input / Output
Input to the EUI takes the form of both mechanical and electrical signals. The mechanical input to the EUI is diesel
fuel via the fuel pump operating at approximately 4 to 5 bar (58 to 72 lbf.in
2). Each of the EUI’s is operated
mechanically by an overhead camshaft to enable injection pressures of up to 1500 bar (22,000 lbf.in2) on pre EU3
models, and 1750 bar (25,500 lbf.in2) on EU3 models, to be achieved. The ECM controls the EUI’s to ensure that
fuel delivery is precise and as intended.
The EUI’s earth paths are as follows:
EUI 1 (C0522-1) via the ECM (C0158-25) on a yellow wire.
EUI 2 (C0523-1) via the ECM (C0158-26) on a yellow/brown wire.
EUI 3 (C0524-1) via the ECM (C0158-27) on a yellow/blue wire.
EUI 4 (C0525-1) via the ECM (C0158-24) on a yellow/red wire.
EUI 5 (C0526-1) via the ECM (C0158-1) on a yellow/purple wire.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION SENSOR - FUEL TEMPERATURE (FT)
The FT sensor is located at the RH rear of the engine in the connector block, with the tip of the sensor inserted at
least 10mm into the fuel flow. This allows the sensor to respond correctly to changes in fuel density in relation to
fuel temperature.
The FT sensor works as an NTC sensor. As fuel temperature rises the resistance in the sensor decreases. As
temperature decreases the resistance in the sensor increases. The ECM is able to compare the voltage signal to
stored values and compensates fuel delivery as necessary for hot engine start.
The operating range of the sensor is -40 to 130°C (-40 to 266°F).
Input / Output
The ECM (C0158-19) provides the FT sensor (C0184-2) with a 5 volt supply signal on a yellow/white wire. The
sensor is earthed (C0184-1) via the ECM (C0158-5) on a pink/black wire.
The FT sensor can fail or supply an incorrect signal if one or more of the following occurs:
Sensor open circuit.
Short circuit to vehicle supply.
Short circuit to vehicle earth.
Sensor fitted incorrectly.
In the event of an FT sensor signal failure any of the following symptoms may be observed:
Difficult cold start.
Difficult hot start.
Driveability concern.
In the event of a component failure, the ECM reverts to a fixed value of 60°C stored in its memory.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION RELAY - FUEL PUMP
The fuel pump relay is located in the engine compartment fuse box. It switches on the fuel pump to draw fuel from
the tank to the electronic unit injectors (EUI).
Input / Output
The fuel pump relay is a 4 pin normally open relay. The fuel pump relay (C0730-4) is provided with a feed by the
main relay (C0063-78) via header 291 on a brown/orange wire. An earth path is provided for the fuel pump relay
(C0730-6) via the ECM (C658-5) on a blue/purple wire. This energises the fuel pump relay and allows a feed to be
provided to the fuel pump. When the ECM interrupts the earth, the relay is de-energised and the fuel pump stops
operating.
The fuel pump relay can fail in one or more of the following ways:
Relay open circuit.
Short circuit to vehicle supply.
Short circuit to vehicle earth.
Broken relay return spring.
In the event of a fuel pump relay failure any of the following symptoms may be observed:
Engine will crank but not start.
If the engine is running, it will stop.
RELAY - MAIN
The main relay is located in the engine compartment fuse box and supplies battery voltage to the following:
The ECM.
The MAF sensor.
Fuel pump relay.
Input / Output
The main relay is a 4 pin normally open relay, which must be energised to provide a voltage to the ECM. The main
relay (C0063-86) is provided with an earth path via a transistor within the ECM (C0658-21) on a blue/red wire.
When the earth path is completed, the relay is energised and supplies the ECM (C0658-3, C0658-22 & C0658-27)
with a feed on brown/orange wires via header 291.
The main relay can fail in the following ways:
Relay open circuit.
Short circuit to vehicle supply.
Short circuit to vehicle earth.
Broken relay return spring.
In the event of a main relay failure any of the following symptoms may be observed:

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION SWITCH - BRAKE PEDAL
The brake pedal switch is located at the rear of the brake pedal box, and activates when the brake pedal is
operated. The ECM uses the signal from the brake pedal to activate the brake lamps and to limit fuelling under
braking.
The brake pedal switch can fail in any of the following ways:
Switch open circuit.
Short circuit to vehicle supply.
Short circuit to earth.
SWITCH - CLUTCH PEDAL
The clutch pedal switch is located on the clutch master cylinder and is activated when the clutch pedal is operated.
The ECM uses the signal from the clutch pedal switch to provide surge damping during gear change. Surge
damping stops engine speed rising dramatically (engine flaring) during gear change. Surge damping assists
driveability as follows:
Smoother gear change.
Greater exhaust gas emission control.
Improved fuel consumption.
Input / Output
When the clutch pedal is in the rest position, the clutch switch is closed. This allows a feed to flow from the switch
(C0667-1) to the ECM (C0658-35) on a black/white wire. When the clutch pedal is pressed the switch contacts
open, cutting the feed to the ECM.
The clutch pedal switch can fail in any one of the following ways:
Switch open circuit.
Short circuit to vehicle supply.
Short circuit to vehicle earth.
In the event of a clutch pedal switch failure surge damping will be inactive.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION TURBOCHARGER
1.Exhaust gas from manifold
2.Studs to exhaust manifold
3.Turbocharger cast iron housing
4.Wastegate valve linkage
5.Exhaust gas out to front exhaust pipe6.Compressed air intake
7.Fresh air intake
8.Turbocharger aluminium alloy housing
9.Wastegate valve vacuum port
The Td5 engine utilises a Garrett GT20 turbocharger with an electronically controlled wastegate modulator to
improve engine performance. The turbocharger uses the engines exhaust gas to spin a turbine at very high
speed. This causes inlet air on the other side of the turbine to be drawn in through the turbocharger intake for
compression.The inlet air is carried round by the vanes of the compressor and then thrown out under centrifugal
force from the turbochargers outlet duct. This compression of air enables a greater quantity of air to be delivered
to the inlet manifold via an intercooler. Combustion is improved through better volumetric efficiency. The use of a
turbocharger improves fuel consumption and increases engine torque and power. Exhaust noise is also reduced
due to the smoothing out of exhaust pulsations.
The rear cast iron body of the turbocharger housing connects to a port on the exhaust manifold at the LH side of
the cylinder head by three studs and nuts. The interface between the exhaust manifold and the turbocharger
housing is separated by a metal gasket. The exhaust outlet of the turbocharger is located at the bottom of the
turbocharger cast iron housing. It is connected to the exhaust system front downpipe and is attached by three
studs and nuts. The interface between the turbocharger housing and the exhaust front pipe is separated by a
metal gasket.
The front casing of the turbocharger is constructed from aluminium alloy and is connected to the air inlet duct by a
metal band clip. The compressed air outlet is connected to the intercooler by a metal pipe which has rubber hose
extensions at each end attached by metal band clips.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION OPERATION
Engine Management
The ECM controls the operation of the engine using stored information within its memory. This guarantees
optimum performance from the engine in terms of torque delivery, fuel consumption and exhaust emissions in all
operating conditions, while still giving optimum driveability.
The ECM will receive information from its sensors under all operating conditions, especially during:
Cold starting.
Hot starting.
Idle.
Wide open throttle.
Acceleration.
Adaptive strategy.
Backup strategy for sensor failures.
The ECM receives information from various sensors to determine the current operating state of the engine. The
ECM then refers this information to stored values in its memory and makes any necessary changes to optimise
air/fuel mixture and fuel injection timing. The ECM controls the air/fuel mixture and fuel injection timing via the
Electronic Unit Injectors (EUI), by the length of time the EUI’s are to inject fuel into the cylinder. This is a rolling
process and is called adaptive strategy. By using this adaptive strategy the ECM is able to control the engine to
give optimum driveability under all operating conditions.
During cold start conditions the ECM uses ECT information to allow more fuel to be injected into the cylinders.
This, combined with the glow plug timing strategy supplied by the ECM, facilitates good cold starting.
During hot start conditions, the ECM uses ECT and FT information to implement the optimum fuelling strategy to
facilitate good hot starting.
During idle and wide open throttle conditions, the ECM uses mapped information within its memory to respond to
input information from the TP sensor to implement the optimum fuelling strategy to facilitate idle and wide open
throttle.
To achieve an adaptive strategy for acceleration, the ECM uses input information from the CKP sensor, the TP
sensor, the ECT sensor, the MAP/IAT sensor, and the FT sensor. This is compared to mapped information within
its memory to implement the optimum fuelling strategy to facilitate acceleration.
Fuel Delivery / Injection Control
The fuel delivery/injection control delivers a precise amount of finely atomised fuel to mix with the air in the
combustion chamber to create a controlled explosion. To precisely control fuel delivery and control fuel injection,
the following input conditions must be met:
CKP information.
Injection timing map information.
FT information.
ECT information.
The ECM monitors the conditions required for optimum combustion of fuel in the cylinder from the various sensors
around the engine and then compares it against stored information. From this calculation, the ECM can adjust the
quantity and timing of the fuel being delivered into the cylinder. The ECM uses CKP information as follows:
To calculate engine speed.
To determine engine crankshaft position.
Engine speed and crankshaft position allows the ECM to determine fuel injection timing.
The ECM also uses ECT and FT information to allow optimum fuel delivery and injection control for all engine
coolant and fuel temperatures.
