ELECTRONIC INJECTION CONTROL UNIT
The control unit processes signals from the various sensors by applying software algorithms and controls
the actuators accordingly (particularly the injectors and pressure regulator) to achieve the best possible
engine service conditions.
The control unit is "flash E.P.R.O.M." type, i.e. it can be reprogrammed from outside without andy need
to adjust the hardware.
The injection control unit contains a built-in absolute pressure sensor and is connected to the wiring by
means of a 121 pin connector.

INJECTORS
The injectors are fitted to the cylinder head
and are electromagnetic in type. They are
controlled directly by the injection control
unit.
The injectors come with a high-pressure sup
ply port and a recirculation pipe at environ
mental pressure; The supply port is connected
to a delivery manifold (rail) with pipes de
signed to withstand the high service pressures.
The injector can be divided into two parts:
- Actuator/spray made up of a pressure rod
(1), pin (2) and nozzle (3);
- control solenoid made up of coil (4) and
pilot valve (5).
Operation
Injector operation may be divided into three
stages:
1. rest position
Coil (4) is deactivated and plunger (6) is in
closed position to prevent fuel entering the
cylinder: Fc > Fa where Fc is the force gener
ated by pressure acting on the control area (7)
of pressure rod (1) and Fa is the force due to
the pressure acting on supply volume (8).
2. Start of injection
Coil (4) is excited and causes plunger (6) to
rise. Fuel flows from control volume (9) to
the return manfold to bring about a pressure
drop in control area (7). Simultanteously, line
pressure through supply port (12) exerceses a
force Fa > Fc on supply volume (8) to cause
pin (2) to rise and thus allow fuel into the
cylinders.
3. end of injection
Coil (4) is deactivated and causes plunger (6)
to return to closed position. The resulting bal
ance of forces makes pin (2) return to rest po
sition and injection therefore ends.

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.

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.
The figure shows the connectors on the base
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
2. Earth
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.
