DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION EGR MODULATOR
1.Port to vacuum source (white band)
2.Port to EGR valve (blue band)3.Port to atmosphere via in-line filter (green band)
4.Harness connector
The EGR modulator is located on a plate fixed to the inner RH front wing. The modulator is attached to the plate
by two studs, each with two nuts which secure the assembly to a rubber mounting, which helps reduce noise. The
modulator must be mounted vertically with the two vacuum ports uppermost.
Modulator operation is controlled by a signal from the ECM which determines the required amount of EGR needed
in response to inputs relating to air flow, engine operation, and ambient conditions. The modulator has a two pin
connector at its base to connect it to the ECM via the engine harness.
The modulator features three ports:
The top port is identified by a white band and connects to a T-piece in the vacuum line via a small bore light
brown plastic hose. The two other ports on the T-piece connect to the vacuum line hoses of black vinyl tubing
between the vacuum pump and the brake servo assembly attached to the bulkhead. The vacuum pump end of
the tubing terminates in a rubber elbow, which gives a vacuum tight seal on the suction port of the vacuum
pump. The brake servo end of the tubing terminates with a non-return valve in a plastic housing which plugs
into the front face of the brake servo housing.
The middle port is identified by a blue band, and connects to the suction port on the EGR valve through a small
bore blue plastic hose.
The lower port is identified by a green band and connects to atmosphere through an in-line filter via a small
bore green plastic hose.
The blue and brown vacuum hoses are protected by corrugated plastic sheaths. The ends of the hoses are fitted
with rubber boots to ensure vacuum tight seals at the component ports.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION EGR SYSTEMS
There are two types of exhaust gas recirculation system used with the Td5 engine dependent on legislation and
market requirements, these are type 1 and type 2.
Type 1 EGR system is fitted to all Td5’s built up to the introduction of 2002 MY, except for Japanese specification
vehicles.
Type 2 EGR system is fitted to all Japanese specification vehicles and was introduced into European markets for
2002 MY to meet EU3 emission requirements. An additional feature introduced at 2002 MY is the EGR cooler,
which is bolted to the front of the cylinder head.
EGR System - Type 1
This EGR system features a modulator which is electrically controlled to modulate a vacuum source to the EGR
valve. The controlled vacuum opens the valve by the amount required to ensure the optimal proportion of exhaust
gas is allowed through to the inlet manifold to be combined with the fresh air intake. Control feedback is achieved
by monitoring the mass of fresh air flowing through the MAF sensor.
EGR modulator operation is controlled by a signal from the ECM, which determines the required amount of EGR
needed in response to inputs relating to air flow and engine operating and ambient conditions. The ECM is
low-side driven, sinking current returned from the vacuum modulator for switching operating condition.
The exhaust gases are routed from the exhaust manifold through a shaped metal pipe which connects to the
underside of the EGR valve. The pipe is held securely in position to the front of the cylinder head using a clamp
bracket. The EGR pipe is attached to a mating port at the front end of the exhaust manifold using 2 Allen screws,
and at the EGR valve assembly by a metal band clamp. The 2 Allen screws should be replaced every time the
EGR pipe is removed.
CAUTION: Extreme caution should be exercised when removing and refitting the EGR pipe to
avoid damage.
When a vacuum is applied to the EGR suction port, it causes a spindle with sealing disc (EGR valve) to be raised,
thus opening the port at the EGR pipe to allow the recirculated exhaust gas to pass through into the inlet manifold.
The valve is spring loaded so that when the vacuum is removed from the suction port the valve returns to its rest
position to tightly close the exhaust gas port.
By controlling the quantity of recirculated exhaust gas available in the inlet manifold, the optimum mix for the
prevailing engine operating conditions can be maintained. This ensures the intake gas to the combustion
chambers will have burning rate properties which will reduce NO
Xemissions to an acceptable level. Normally, full
recirculation is only applicable when NO
Xemissions are most prevalent.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION EGR System - Type 2
This system features twin modulators mounted one above the other on a metal plate located on the inner wing at
the RH side of the engine. The modulators are electrically controlled by the engine management system and are
used to modulate a vacuum source to the EGR valve and a supplementary Inlet Throttle (ILT) valve; the two
valves are controlled to operate in tandem. The ILT valve vacuum pot is mounted adjacent to the EGR valve
housing and has a linkage which connects to a butterfly valve mounted in front of the EGR valve at the air intake
manifold.
The modulator operations are electrically controlled by signals from the engine management system which
determines the required volume of exhaust gas needed in response to inputs relating to air flow, engine operating
conditions and ambient parameters such as temperature and altitude. The engine management ECM switches on
the circuit by completing the path to ground, operating the vacuum modulators.
Pre EU3 models:The exhaust gases are routed from the exhaust manifold through a shaped metal pipe which
connects to the underside of the EGR valve. The pipe is held securely in position to the front of the engine cylinder
head using a metal clamp bracket. The EGR pipe is attached to a mating port at the front end of the exhaust
manifold using two Allen screws and at the EGR valve assembly by a metal band clamp. The two Allen screws
fixing the EGR pipe to the exhaust manifold should be replaced every time the EGR pipe is removed.
CAUTION: Extreme care should be exercised when removing and refitting the EGR pipe to avoid
damage.
EU3 models:The exhaust gases are routed from the exhaust manifold through the EGR cooler to the underside
of the EGR valve. The EGR cooler is bolted to the front of the engine cylinder head. An EGR pipe connects the
EGR cooler to the exhaust manifold and is secured by two Allen screws. The two Allen screws fixing the EGR pipe
to the exhaust manifold should be replaced every time the EGR pipe is removed. A second pipe connects the
EGR cooler to the EGR valve; this pipe is secured to the EGR valve by a clip, and to the cooler by two Allen
screws.
CAUTION: Extreme care should be exercised when removing and refitting the EGR pipe to avoid
damage. When refitting the EGR cooler, always tighten the pipe connections BEFORE tightening
the bolts securing the cooler to the cylinder head.
When a vacuum is applied to the EGR suction port, it causes a spindle with sealing disc (EGR valve) to be raised,
opening the port at the EGR pipe to allow the recirculated exhaust gas to pass through into the inlet manifold. The
valve is spring loaded so that when the vacuum is removed from the suction port, the valve returns to its rest
position to tightly close the exhaust gas port.
A vacuum is simultaneously applied to the inlet throttle (ILT) valve suction port which causes the butterfly valve in
the inlet manifold to close by means of a spindle and lever mechanism. Closing the butterfly valve limits the supply
of fresh intercooled air entering the inlet manifold and causes a depression within the inlet manifold to create a
greater suction at the open port to the EGR delivery pipe. In this condition a greater mass of recirculated exhaust
gas is drawn into the inlet manifold for use in the combustion process. When the vacuum is released from the ILT
valve suction port a spring returns the butterfly valve to its fully open position.
By controlling the quantities of recirculated exhaust gas and fresh intake air available in the inlet manifold, the
optimum mix for the prevailing engine operating conditions can be maintained which ensures the intake gas to the
combustion chambers will have burning rate properties which will reduce the NO
2emissions to an acceptable
level. Normally, full recirculation is only applicable when the NO
2emissions are most prevalent.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION SENSOR - THROTTLE POSITION (TP)
FROM VIN 607225
Defender vehicles from VIN 607225 use three track thick film potentiometers. No idle speed sender switch is used
on this type of sensor because the ECM can compare the two or three sets of signals to implement idle speed
control and over-run fuel shut-off. The two potentiometers are known as track 1 and 2 potentiometers. The track 3
potentiometer on later models is used to improve the resolution of the pedal. The ECM provides a 5V supply and
receives a signal from each of the potentiometer tracks.
Td5 TP Sensor Signal Output
A = Track 1
B = Track 2
C = Track 3
D = Voltage
E = Pedal Angle (Degrees)
F = Not applicable for Defender
G = Wide open throttle stop tolerance band
With reference to the above graph, at idle (throttle released), track 2 returns a signal of 4.2V to the ECM and track
1 returns a signal of 0.8V. The ECM calculates the sum of these two figures which totals 5.0V.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION On Defender models, at wide open throttle, track 2 returns a signal of 0.28V and track 1 returns a signal of 4.7V to
the ECM. The ECM calculates the sum of these two figures which totals 5.0V.
The ECM uses this strategy to error check the TP sensor signal and ensure that the requested throttle position is
applied. The third potentiometer track measures the tolerance of tracks 1 and 2 and provides an improved
functionality check of the pedal angle.
NOTE: Three track TP sensors cannot be fitted as replacements on vehicles previously fitted with
two track TP sensors. Replacement ECM’s are configured for two track TP sensors and can be
fitted to all Td5 models. When replacement ECM’s are fitted to vehicles using three track TP
sensors, TestBook must be used to configure the ECM for three track TP sensor use.
If the TP sensor fails, the ECM will illuminate the MIL and the engine will operate at normal idle speed only.

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 The turbocharger is exposed to extremely high operating temperatures (up to 1000°C, 1832°F) because of the
hot exhaust gases and the high speed revolution of the turbine (up to 15,000 rev/min). In order to resist wear of
the turbine bearings a flow of lubrication oil is supplied from the engine lubrication system to keep the bearings
cool. Oil is supplied from a tapping at the front of the full-flow filter adaptor housing via a metal pipe with banjo
connections. Oil is returned to the sump via a metal pipe which connects to the cylinder block at a port below the
turbocharger assembly.
A heatshield is attached to the LH side of the engine to protect adjacent components from the heat generated at
the turbocharger. The heatshield is attached to the engine by 2 bolts. An additional bolt attaches the heatshield to
the turbocharger casting.
The ECM controls the amount of boost pressure the engine receives by way of the turbocharger. When full boost
is reached a control signal is sent to the wastegate modulator, and a vacuum is applied to the wastegate valve.
The wastegate valve opens, bypassing some of the exhaust gases away from the turbine to be output to the
exhaust system.
The engine should be allowed to idle for 15 seconds following engine start up and before the engine is switched
off to protect the turbocharger by maintaining oil supply to the turbine bearings.
INTERCOOLER
The intercooler is an air-to-air heat exchanger which lowers the intake air temperature to obtain a higher air
density for better combustion efficiency. The intercooler receives compressed air from the turbocharger via a
metal pipe. It cools the intake air via the intercooler matrix and delivers it to the intake manifold by means of a
rubber hose which connects between the intercooler outlet and the intake manifold. The rubber hose is connected
to ports at each end by metal clips.
The intercooler is located at the front of the engine bay, forward of the radiator.
