Connector 5 (C0638): This connector contains 9 pins and is used to control the ignition system. The ignition coils are
supplied with power and a switching earth completes the circuit.
Pin out details connector C0638
Crankshaft speed and Position (CKP) sensor (C0168)
The CKP sensor is located towards the rear of the engine below cylinder number 7, with its tip adjacent to the outer
circumference of the flywheel. The CKP sensor is the most important sensor on the vehicle and without its signal the
engine will not run. The signal produced by the CKP sensor allows the ECM to determine crankshaft angle and speed
of rotation. The ECM uses this information to calculate ignition timing and fuel injection timing.
The CKP sensor works as a variable reluctance sensor. It uses an electromagnet and a reluctor ring to generate a
signal. As the reluctor ring passes the tip of the CKP sensor the magnetic field produced by the sensor is cut and then
re-instated. The ECM measures the signal as an ac voltage.
The output voltage varies in proportion to engine speed. The reluctor ring has a set tooth pattern, 60 teeth are spaced
at 6
° intervals and are 3° wide, two teeth are removed to provide a reference mark at 60° BTDC for number 1 cylinder.
There is no back up strategy or limp home facility if this sensor fails, the engine does not run.

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
18-2-14 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
In the event of a CKP sensor signal failure any of the following symptoms may be observed:
lEngine cranks but fails to start.
lMIL remains on at all times.
lEngine misfires (CKP sensor incorrectly fitted).
lEngine runs roughly or even stalls (CKP sensor incorrectly fitted).
lTachometer fails to work.
lFlywheel adaption reset – ferrous contamination
If the CKP sensor fails while the engine is running the engine will suddenly stall, this is because the CKP sensor has
no backup strategy. If this happens the ECM will produce a fault code that it can store in its memory. If the engine is
not running when the CKP sensor fails, the vehicle will crank but will be unlikely to start, and no fault code will be
generated. In this instance the MIL lamp will remain illuminated and the tachometer will fail to read.
It is vital that the CKP sensor output wires are not reversed (i.e. the connector is fitted incorrectly) as this will cause
a 3
° advance in ignition timing. This happens because the ECM uses the falling edge of the signal waveform as its
reference or timing point for each passing tooth on the reluctor.
Whenever a new crankshaft position sensor is fitted or the flywheel is removed, the adaptive values will have to be
reset, using TestBook.
Should a malfunction of the component occur, the following fault codes may be evident and can be retrieved by
TestBook:
Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor (C0176)
The CMP sensor is located on the front of the engine, above and behind the crankshaft pulley. The CMP sensor is a
Hall effect sensor producing four pulses for every two crankshaft revolutions. The sensor is positioned close to the
camshaft gear wheel, the gear wheel has four slots machined at 90
° intervals. This allows the ECM to recognise 4
individual cylinders every camshaft revolution or all 8 cylinders every crankshaft revolution.
The CMP sensor Hall effect works as a magnetic switch. It switches battery voltage on or off depending on the position
of the camshaft gear wheel in relationship to the sensor.
The ECM uses this signal for cylinder recognition to control sequential fuel injection, engine knock and diagnostic
purposes.

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-15
Input/Output
Electrical input to the camshaft position sensor is from fuse 2 located in engine compartment fuse box. One output is
sensor earth, the other is the signal output to the ECM via pin 20 of connector C0636.
The CMP sensor can fail the following ways or supply incorrect signal:
lSensor open circuit.
lShort circuit to vehicle battery supply.
lShort circuit to vehicle earth.
lIncorrect fitting of the sensor.
lExcessive camshaft gear wheel tolerance.
lExcessive camshaft endfloat.
lCamshaft and crankshaft misalignment.
lSpeed signal correlation with CKP sensor signal.
lCam wheel magnetised / residual magnetism
In the event of a CMP sensor signal failure any of the following symptoms may be observed:
lIgnition timing reverts to default values from ECM memory.
lLoss of cylinder correction.
lLoss of active knock control.
lLoss of active knock control diagnostics.
lLoss of cylinder identification for misfire diagnostics.
lLoss of quick synchronisation of crankshaft and camshaft for cranking/ start up.
lFuel injection could be 360
° out of phase.
lFront HO
2S sensor ageing period diagnostic disabled (NAS only)
Should a malfunction of the component occur the following fault code may be evident and can be retrieved by
TestBook:
The fault condition has to be detected for more than 100 cam pulses (25 revolutions) when the engine speed is greater
than 500 rev/min.
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor (C0196)
The ECT sensor is located at the front of the engine adjacent to the coolant outlet pipe. The ECT sensor forms a vital
part of the ECM operating strategy, and therefore the optimum control of the running of the engine. Richer air/ fuel
ratio is required at lower coolant temperatures such as cold starting. Coolant temperature information from the ECT
sensor is also vital to enable the ECM to weaken the air/ fuel mixture as temperature rises to maintain low emissions
and optimum performance.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-19
Input/Output
The ECM provides the thermostat monitoring sensor with a 5 volt reference via pin 21 of connector C0635 of the ECM,
and an earth via pin 5 of connector C0635 of the ECM.
There are three types of thermostat monitoring sensor diagnostic checks:
lSensor signal is above maximum threshold. For the ECM to register this as a fault, and illuminate the MIL, the
temperature registered by the thermostat monitoring sensor must be above 140
°C (284 °F) for more than 1
second.
lSensor signal is below minimum threshold. For the ECM to register this as a fault, and illuminate the MIL, the
temperature registered by the thermostat monitoring sensor must be below -33
°C (-27 °F) for more than 1
second, while the inlet air temperature reading is greater than -32
°C (-25 °F).
lSignal difference between ECT sensor and thermostat monitoring sensor is below maximum threshold. For the
ECM to register this as a fault, and illuminate the MIL, the following conditions must exist:
lNo maximum or minimum threshold signal faults exist.
lNo faults are recorded against the thermostat monitoring sensor or vehicle speed signal.
lEngine not in idle speed control.
lFuel cut-off not active.
lEngine speed is greater than 400 rpm.
lRoad speed is greater than 0 mph.
lIntegrated mass air flow from engine start to fuel cut-off is greater than set value (between 3 kg and 10 kg
dependent upon engine coolant temperature at engine start).
lEngine coolant temperature at engine start is between 9
°C and 39 °C (48 °F and 102 °F).
lHigh range is selected.
lDelay time before thermostat monitoring is enabled is between set limits (between 50 and 500 seconds
dependent upon engine coolant temperature at engine start).
lEngine coolant temperature is greater than 90
°C (194 °F).
lThe difference between the ECT sensor reading and the thermostat monitoring sensor reading is less than
39
°C (102 °F).

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-21
Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor
The MAF sensor utilises a “hot film” element contained in the air intake duct to monitor the mass of the air flow being
drawn into the engine. The MAF sensor contains two sensing elements, one element is controlled at ambient
temperature (e.g. 25
°C (77°F)), while the other is heated to 200°C (360°F) above the ambient temperature (e.g. 225°C
(437
°F)).
When the intake air passes the heated element, it cools it down, so lowering the resistance of the hot film element. In
order to maintain the same temperature, the circuit to the heated element has to supply more current. The change in
current causes a corresponding change in potential difference to be detected in the monitoring circuit. This change is
supplied to the ECM as a voltage between 0 and 5V, where it is processed by the ECM's internal mapping to interpret
the data as a measure of the mass of air flow.
The measured air mass flow is used by the ECM to determine the fuel quantity to be injected in order to maintain the
stoiciometric air:fuel mixture for optimum engine performance and low emissions.
Normal operating parameters of the MAF sensor are as follows:
MAF output
If the MAF sensor fails, the ECM implements a back up strategy which is based on throttle angle. Poor throttle
response and reduced performance will result.
The MAF sensor can fail the following ways or supply incorrect signal:
lSensor open circuit.
lShort circuit to vehicle supply.
lShort circuit to vehicle earth.
lContaminated sensor element.
lDamaged sensor element.
lAir leak after the MAF sensor.
lInlet air restriction.
lResistance in wiring harness causing signal offset.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-23
Should the IAT sensor fail, the ECM defaults to an assumed air temperature of 45 °C (113 °F).
The IAT sensor can fail the following ways or supply incorrect signal:
lSensor open circuit.
lShort circuit to vehicle battery supply.
lShort circuit to vehicle earth.
lIncreased sensor resistance.
lDamaged sensor element.
In the event of an IAT sensor signal failure any of the following symptoms may be observed:
lAdaptive fuelling disabled.
lIdle speed adaption disabled.
lCatalyst monitoring affected due to exhaust temperature model.
lIdle speed actuator test disabled.
lWarm up ignition angle affected.
lCondenser fan hot restart inhibited.
There are two types of IAT sensor diagnostic checks:
lThe IAT sensor signal is less than the minimum threshold – the engine has to have been running for longer than
180 seconds, and idle speed control must have been operational for longer than 10 seconds. No fuel cut off is
active. The IAT sensor signal must be less than -35
°C (-31°F) for longer than 200 ms.
lThe IAT sensor signal is greater than the maximum threshold – the ECM has to be powered up (engine does not
need to be running), and the signal must be greater than 140
°C (284°F) for longer than 200 ms.
If the IAT sensor fails the following fault codes will be produced and can be retrieved by TestBook:
