6VE1 3.5L ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
Electrical Components
The electrical components that make up the enhanced
EVAP system are:
Fuel Tank (Vapor) Pressure Sensor. The fuel tank
pressure sensor is a three-wire strain gauge sensor
similar to a common MAP sensor. However, the fuel
tank pressure sensor has very different electrical
characteristics due to its pressure differential design.
The sensor measures the difference between the air
pressure (or vacuum) in the fuel tank and the outside
air pressure.
The sensor mounts at the top of the fuel pump
assembly. A three-wire electrical harness connects it to
the PCM. The PCM supplies a five-volt reference
voltage and a ground to the sensor. The sensor will
return a voltage between 0.1 and 4.9 volts. When the
air pressure in the fuel tank is equal to the outside air
pressure, such as when the fuel cap is removed, the
output voltage of the sensor will be 1.3 to 1.7 volts.
When the air pressure in the fuel tank is 4.5 in. H2O
(1.25 kPa), the sensor output voltage will be 0.5 + 0.2 V.
When there is neither vacuum nor pressure in the fuel
tank, the sensor voltage will be 1.5 V. At ±14 in. H2O
(±3.75 kPa), the sensor voltage will be 4.5 + 0.2 V.
EVAP Canister Purge Solenoid. Normally closed, the
purge solenoid opens upon the PCM's signal to allow
engine vacuum to purge gasoline fumes from the
canister. Mounted on the water pipe to front of the
engine assembly.
060R200080
EVAP Canister Vent Solenoid. Located next to the
canister, the vent solenoid opens to allow air into the
EVAP system. Fresh air is necessary to completely
remove gasoline fumes from the canister during
purge. The EVAP vent solenoid closes to seal off the
evaporative emissions system for leak testing.
060R200081
Fuel Level Sensor. The fuel level sensor is an
important input to the PCM for the enhanced EVAP
system diagnostic. The PCM needs fuel level
information to know the volume of fuel in the tank.
The fuel level affects the rate of change of air
pressure in the EVAP system. Several of the
enhanced EVAP system diagnostic sub-tests are
dependent upon correct fuel level information. The
diagnostic will not run when the tank is less than 15%
or more than 85% full. Be sure to diagnose any Fuel
Level Sensor DTCs first, as they can cause other
DTCs to set.
014RW114
Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor. The
PCM compares the signals from the fuel tank
pressure sensor and the MAP sensor to ensure that a
relative vacuum is maintained the EVAP system.

TRANSMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM (4L30±E)
Shift Control
The transmission gear is shifted according to the shift
pattern selected by the driver. In shifting gears, the gear
ratio is controlled by the ON/ OFF signal using the shift
solenoid A and the shift solenoid B.
Band Apply Control
The band apply is controlled when in the 3±2 downshift
(engine overrun prevention) and the garage shift (shock
control).
The band apply solenoid is controlled by the signal from
the Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) to regulate the flow of
the oil.
Torque Converter Clutch Control
(Electronically Controlled Capacity Clutch
= ECCC)
The clutch apply is controlled by moving the converter
clutch valve by commanding Torque Converter Clutch
(TCC) solenoid using the PWM signal.
Line Pressure Control
The throttle signal allows the current signal to be sent to
the force motor. After receiving the current signal, the
force motor activates the pressure regulator valve to
regulate the line pressure.
On±Board Diagnostic System
Several malfunction displays can be stored in the
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) memory, and read out
of it afterward.
The serial data lines, which are required for the testing of
the final assembly and the coupling to other electronic
modules, can be regulated by this function.
Fail Safe Mechanism
If there is a problem in the transmission system, the PCM
will go into a ªbackupº mode.
The vehicle can still be driven, but the driver must use the
select lever to shift gears.
Torque Management Control
The transmission control side sends the absolute spark
advance signal to the engine control side while the
transmission is being shifted. This controls the engine
spark timing in compliance with the vehicle running
condition to reduce the shocks caused by the change of
speed.
ATF Warning Control
The oil temperature sensor detects the ATF oil
temperature to control the oil temperature warning, TCC,
and the winter mode.
Reverse Lock Out Control
With the selector lever in reverse position, the PCM will
not close the PWM solenoid until the vehicle is below 11
km/h (6.8 mph), thus preventing reverse engagement
above this speed.
Downhill Control
This mode is automatically activated from ªNORMALº
mode only when downhill conditions are recognized.
The shift pattern is identical to ªNORMALº mode except
3-4 and 4-3 shift lines at low throttle modified to get engine
braking on a larger speed range.
ECCC lines unchanged compared to ªNORMALº mode.
Uphill Control
When Uphill condition are recognized the 2-3 and 3-4 shift
and TCC apply take place only when the engine torque is
sufficient in order to avoid shift hunting.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) looks the same as
the MIL you are already familiar with (ªCHECK ENGINEº
lamp). However, OBD II requires for it illuminate under a
strict set of guidelines. Basically, the MIL is turned on
when the PCM detects a DTC that will impact the vehicle's
emissions.
The MIL is under the control of the Diagnostic Executive.
The MIL will be turned on if a component or system which
has an impact on vehicle emissions indicates a
malfunction or fails to pass an emissions±related
diagnostic test. It will stay on until the system or
component passes the same test, for three consecutive
trips, with no emissions±related faults.
DTC Types
Each DTC is directly related to a diagnostic test. The
Diagnostic Management System sets DTC based on the
failure of the tests during a trip or trips. Certain tests must
fail two (2) consecutive trips before the DTC is set. The
following are the four (4) types of DTCs and the
characteristics of those codes:
Type A
Emissions related
Requests illumination of the MIL of the first trip with a
fail
Stores a History DTC on the first trip with a fail
Stores a Freeze Frame (if empty) (DTC Information
for 6VE1 engine)
Stores a Fail Record
Updates the Fail Record each time the diagnostic
test fails
Type B
Emissions related
ªArmedº after one (1) trip with a fail
ªDisarmedº after one (1) trip with a pass
Requests illumination of the MIL on the
second
consecutive trip
with a fail
Stores a History DTC on the second consecutive trip
with a fail (The DTC will be armed after the first fail)
Stores a Freeze Frame on the second consecutive
trip with a fail (if empty) (DTC Information for 6VE1
engine)
Stores a Fail Record when the first test fails (not
dependent on
consecutive trip fails)
Updates the Fail Record each time the diagnostic
test fails
(Some special conditions apply to misfire and fuel trim
DTCs)
Type C (if the vehicle is so equipped)
Non-Emissions related
Requests illumination of the Service Lamp or the
service message on the Drive Information Center
(DIC) on the
first trip with a fail
Stores a History DTC on the
first trip with a fail
Does not store a Freeze Frame
Stores Fail Record when test fails
Updates the Fail Record each time the diagnostic
test fails
Type D
Non-Emissions related
Not request illumination of any lamp
Stores a History DTC on the
first trip with a fail
Does not store a Freeze Frame
Stores Fail Record when test fails
Updates the Fail Record each time the diagnostic
test fails
