ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
The sensor is fitted to the thermostat and
measures the temperature of the engine cool­
ant by means of an NTC thermistor with a
negative resistance coefficient.
Because the sensor is made using semicon­
ductor technology, the resistance falls if sen­
sor element temperature rises with increasing
coolant temperature.
Because resistance does not change in linear
manner, it is higher at low temperatures than
at high temperatures for the same temperature
increase.

FUEL TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
The sensor is fitted on the return manifold and
measures fuel temperature by means of an
NTC thermistor with a negative resistance co­
efficient.
Refer to the previous description of the cool­
ant temperature sensor for sensor operation.
FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR
The sensor is fitted in the middle of the fuel
delivery manifold (rail) and is responsible for
providing a return signal (feedback) to the
control unit in order to:
- adjust injection pressure;
- regulator injection duration.

0 1 GLOW PLUG PREHEATING CONTROL
UNIT
The glow plugs are controlled by means of a
preheating control unit under the direct con­
trol of the injection control unit.
The preheating control unit contains a smart
relay that sends a return response (feedback)
to the injection control unit, which is thus in­
formed of faults in the preheating control unit
or glow plug short-circuits to earth.

of the preheating control unit and the pin-out

ACCELERATOR
PEDAL POTENTIOMETER
Accelerator pedal position is converted to an
electrical voltage signal and send to the injec­
tion control unit by a potentiometer connected
to the accelerator pedal.
Accelerator pedal position is processed to­
gether with rpm information to provide injec­
tion times and pressure.
The sensor consists of a case (1) secured to
the pedal by a flange, which contains an axi-
ally-positioned shaft (2) connected to two
potentiometers (3): main and safety potenti­
ometers.
A coil spring on the shaft ensures the correct
resistance to pressure while a second spring
ensures return upon release.

4F017XJ01
A switch (1) on the brake pedal con­
trols the car brake lights; the same
switch sends a signal to pin 59 of the
injection control unit
The control unit uses the "brake pedal
depressed" signal to:
- detect a situation of over-run;;
- check the plausibility of the signal
from the accelerator potentiometer
CLUTCH PEDAL SWITCH
A switch (2) on the clutch pedal is connected to pin 61 of the injection control unit.
The injection control unit uses the "brake pedal operated" signal to distinguish gear engaged and gear
shift conditions.
PRESSURE RELIEF SENSOR
The sensor is fitted to the intake manifold and
the signal sent to the injection control unit is
used to:
- regulate injection pressure;
- regulate injection duration.
The figure alongside shows the sensor and
electrical connector with the following pin-
out:
1. pressure signal

3. Fuel feed system
ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE SENSOR
The atmospheric pressure signal is built into the injection control unit. It is responsible for measuring at­
mospheric pressure in order to correct measured air flow and reference air flow values to control the EGR
function.

SUBMERGED FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY
(AUXILIARY) AND LEVEL GAUGE CON­
TROL
The assembly consists mainly of:
- a roller-type fuel pump;
- a fuel level gauge;
- a fuel filter
The submerged fuel pump is volumetric type
with rollers and a motor with brushes and
permanent magnet excitation.
Impeller (1) is driven by the electric motor to
turn and create volumes (2) that move from
intake port (3) to outlet port (4).
These volumes are delimited by rollers (5) that
adhere to outer race(6) as the motor turns.
The pump is fitted with two valves: a check
valve to prevent the fuel circuit emptying
(with the pump off); a second pressure relief
valve (7) that short-circuits the outlet to the
inlet when pressures exceed 5 bars.
FUEL FILTER
The fuel filter is located in the engine bay.
The filter is cartridge type with a filter element
(1) made up of a pack of paper discs with a
filtering area of some 5300 cm 2 and a filter
gauge of 4 - 5 microns.
The filter is equipped with a fuel preheating
device (2) controlled by the engine control
unit via a relay.
The control unit activates or deactivates the
diesel filter on the basis of a diesel tempera­
ture signal sent by sensor (3) on the filter.
A plug (4) screwed to the base of the fuel
filter cartridge is used to drai off the water.
The plug incorporates a sensor for the detec­
tion of water in the diesel filter connected to a
warning light on the instrument panel.

INERTIA SAFETY SWITCH
To increase car occupant safety in the case of
impact, the car is fitted with an inertia switch
located inside the passenger compartment se­
cured to the inside of the left panel.
This sensor reduces the possibility of fire (due
to emerging fuel) by deactivating the auxiliary
fuel pump that supplies the injection circuit.
The switch consists of a steel ball, fitted in a
tapered housing, kept in place by the attrac­
tion force of a permanent magnet.
In the case of violent impact, the ball is released from the magnetic detent and opens the normally closed
(NC) electrical circuit to cut off the auxiliary fuel pump connection to earth, and as a consequence the
supply to the injection system.
To restore the auxiliary pump earth connection, move back the seat and press the switch until a click is
heard.
Even after an apparently slight impact, if there is a smell of fuel or there are leaks from the fuel
system, do not turn the switch back on, but search for the fault and remedy it to prevent the risk
of fire.
