LIFTING AND TOWING
LIFTING
The following instructions must be carried out before
raising the vehicle off the ground.
lUse a solid level ground surface.
lApply hand brake.
lSelect 'P' (Automatic gearbox) or 1st gear
(Manual gearbox) in main gearbox.
lSelect Low range in transfer gearbox.
To avoid damage occurring to the under body
components of the vehicle the following jacking
procedures must be adhered to.
DO NOT POSITION JACKS OR AXLE STANDS
UNDER THE FOLLOWING COMPONENTS:
lBody structure
lBumpers
lFuel lines
lBrake lines
lFront radius arms
lPanhard rod
lSteering linkage
lRear trailing arms
lFuel tank
lEngine sump
lGearbox bell housing
Vehicle jack
The jack provided with the vehicle is only intended for
use in an emergency, for changing a tyre. DO NOT
use the jack for any other purpose. Refer to Owner's
Handbook for vehicle jack location points and
procedure. Never work under a vehicle supported
solely by the vehicle jack.
Hydraulic jack
A hydraulic jack with a minimum 1500 kg, 3,300 lbs
load capacity must be used. Do not commence
work on the underside of the vehicle until
suitable axle stands have been positioned under
the axle.
WARNING: Always chock the wheels when
jacking. The hand brake acts on the
transmission, not the rear wheels, and may be
ineffective when the wheels are off the ground.Raising and supporting the vehicle
Position cup of hydraulic arm under differential
casing (1).The differential casing is not central to
the axle. Care should be taken when raising the
front road wheels off the ground as the rear axle
has less sway stiffness.
Raise vehicle to enable an axle stand to be installed
under left hand axle tube (2).
Position an axle stand under right hand axle tube (4).
Carefully lower jack until vehicle sits securely on both
axle stands, remove jack.
Alternatively, the axle stands can be positioned
under the chassis longitudinals at the front and/or
rear of the vehicle.

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
18-2-28 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Throttle Position (TP) sensor (C0175)
The TP sensor is located on the throttle body assembly in the engine compartment. The ECM is able to determine the
position of the throttle plate and the rate of change of its angle. The ECM processes the signal received from the TP
sensor.
The TP sensor consists of a resistance track and a sliding contact connected to the throttle plate assembly. As the
throttle is opened and closed the sliding contact moves along the resistance track to change the output voltage of the
sensor. The ECM determines throttle plate position by processing this output voltage. The connection of the sensor
to the throttle plate assembly is via a shaft.
The ECM is able to determine the closed throttle position, this enables the TP sensor to be fitted without the need for
prior adjustment. The TP sensor signal has input into the ECM's fuelling strategy and also to determine closed throttle
position for idle speed control. The TP sensor also supplies the ECM with information to enable the overrun fuel cut
off strategy to be implemented. When the ECM receives closed throttle information from the TP sensor it closes the
injectors for the duration of the closed throttle time.
The TP sensor signal is also used by the Electronic Automatic Transmission (EAT) ECU to determine the correct point
for gear shifts and acceleration kickdown. The ECM also supplies the SLABS ECU with this TP sensor information as
a PWM signal.
Input/Output
The TP sensor has electrical input and output. Input is a 5 volt supply via pin 10 of connector C0636 of the ECM. The
signal output is via pin 24 of connector C0636 and is a varying voltage, less than 0.5V (closed throttle) and greater
than 4.5V (wide open throttle) depending on throttle plate position. The TP sensor earth is via pin 25 of connector
C0636 of the ECM, this acts as a screen to protect the integrity of the TP sensor signal.
The connector and sensor terminals are gold plated for corrosion and temperature resistance, care must be exercised
while probing the connector and sensor terminals.
If the TP sensor signal fails, the ECM uses a default value derived from engine load and speed.
The TP sensor can fail the following ways or supply incorrect signal:
lSensor open circuit.
lShort circuit to vehicle supply.
lShort circuit to vehicle earth.
lSignal out of parameters.
lBlocked air filter (load monitoring, ratio of the TP sensor to air flow).
lRestriction in air inlet (load monitoring, ratio of the TP sensor to air flow).
lVacuum leak

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-51
Conditions
The ECM calculates ignition timing using input from the following:
lCKP sensor.
lKnock sensors (KS).
lMAF sensor.
lTP sensor (idle only).
lECT sensor.
Function
At engine start up, the ECM sets ignition timing dependent on ECT information and starting rev/min from the CKP. As
the running characteristics of the engine change, the ignition timing changes. The ECM compares the CKP signal to
stored values in its memory, and if necessary advances or retards the spark via the ignition coils.
Ignition timing is used by the ECM for knock control.
Knock control
The ECM uses active knock control to prevent possible engine damage due to pre-ignition. This is achieved by
converting engine block noise into a suitable electrical signal that can be processed by the ECM. A major contributing
factor to engine 'knock' is fuel quality, the ECM can function satisfactorily on 91 RON fuel as well as the 95 RON fuel
that it is calibrated for.
Conditions
The ECM knock control system operates as follows:
lHot running engine.
l91 or 95 RON fuel.
Function
The ECM knock control uses two sensors located one between the centre two cylinders of each bank. The knock
sensors consist of piezo ceramic crystals that oscillate to create a voltage signal. During pre-ignition, the frequency
of crystal oscillation increases which alters the signal output to the ECM.
If the knock sensors detect pre-ignition in any of the cylinders, the ECM retards the ignition timing by 3° for that
particular cylinder. If this action stops the engine knock, the ignition timing is restored to its previous figure in
increments of 0.75°. If this action does not stop engine knock then the ECM retards the ignition timing a further 3° up
to a maximum of -15° and then restores it by 0.75° and so on until the engine knock is eliminated.
The ECM also counteracts engine knock at high intake air temperatures by retarding the ignition as above. The ECM
uses the IAT signal to determine air temperature.
Idle speed control
The ECM regulates the engine speed at idling. The ECM uses the idle air control valve (IACV) to compensate for the
idle speed drop that occurs when the engine is placed under greater load than usual. When the throttle is in the rest
position i.e. it has not been pressed, the majority of intake air that the engine consumes comes from the idle air control
valve.
IACV control idle speed
Conditions in which the ECM operates the IACV control idle speed is as follows:
lIf any automatic transmission gears other than P or N are selected.
lIf air conditioning is switched on.
lIf cooling fans are switched on.
lAny electrical loads activated by the driver.
Function
The idle air control valve utilises two coils that use opposing pulse width modulated (PWM) signals to control the
position of a rotary valve. If one of the circuits that supplies the PWM signal fails, the ECM closes down the remaining
signal preventing the idle air control valve from working at its maximum/ minimum setting. If this should occur, the idle
air control valve assumes a default idle position at which the engine idle speed is raised to 1200 rev/min with no load
placed on the engine.
