EVAP (charcoal) canister
1EVAP canister
2Port to breather tube
3Port – vent line from fuel tank
4Port – purge line
The EVAP canister is mounted on a bracket fitted beneath the vehicle on the RH side of the chassis. The EVAP
canister ports face towards the front of the vehicle. The EVAP canister has inscriptions next to each port for
identification of the 'purge', 'tank' and 'air' connections.
The purge line from the EVAP canister is connected to the back of the inlet manifold plenum, after the throttle body
via a purge valve. The pipe between the EVAP canister and the purge valve is routed over the transmission and into
the LH side of the engine bay. The pipe clips to the purge port on the EVAP canister by means of a straight quick-fit
connector and the connection is covered by a rubber seal which is held in position on the port stub pipe.
The vent line from the fuel tank to the EVAP canister connects to the vent port on the canister by means of an elbowed
quick-fit connector. The line passes along the chassis behind the EVAP canister and terminates in a straight female
quick-fit connector to the fuel vent line at the fuel filler.
The plastic pipe to the atmosphere vent line connects to the port on the EVAP canister by means of a short rubber
hose and metal band clips. The atmosphere end of the plastic pipe terminates in a quick fit connector to the pipe
leading to the CVS unit on NAS vehicles with vacuum type, EVAP system leak detection and two snorkel tubes
situated behind the engine at the bulkhead on ROW vehicles. The bore of the plastic breather pipe is larger on NAS
vehicles than on ROW vehicles.

18-1-6 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Description
General
An engine control module (ECM) controls the five-cylinder direct injection diesel engine, and works on the drive by
wire principle. This means there is no throttle cable, the ECM controls the drivers needs via a signal from the Throttle
Position (TP) sensor on the throttle pedal.
The ECM is a full authoritative diesel specific microprocessor that also incorporates features for cruise control and air
conditioning control. In addition, the ECM supplies output control for the exhaust gas recirculation and turbocharger
boost pressure. The ECM has a self-diagnostic function, which is able to provide backup strategies for most sensor
failures.
The ECM processes information from the following input sources:
lMass air flow sensor.
lAmbient air pressure sensor.
lManifold absolute pressure/inlet air temperature sensor.
lEngine coolant temperature sensor.
lCrankshaft speed and position sensor.
lThrottle position sensor.
lFuel temperature sensor.
lAir conditioning request.
lAir conditioning fan request.
lBrake pedal switch.
lClutch switch.
lCruise control master switch.
lCruise control SET+ switch.
lCruise control RES switch.
lHigh/low ratio switch.
The input from the sensors constantly updates the ECM with the current operating condition of the engine. Once the
ECM has compared current information with stored information within its memory, it can make any adjustment it
requires to the operation of the engine via the following:
lAir conditioning clutch relay.
lAir conditioning cooling fan relay.
lElectronic vacuum regulator solenoid.
lMalfunction indicator lamp.
lFuel pump relay.
lGlow plug warning lamp.
lGlow plugs.
lFuel injectors.
lMain relay.
lTurbocharger wastegate modulator.
lTemperature gauge.
The ECM interfaces with the following:
lElectronic Automatic Transmission (EAT).
lSelf Levelling and Anti-lock Brakes System (SLABS).
lSerial communication link.
lInstrument cluster.
lBody Control Unit (BCU).

18-1-16 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Crankshaft speed and Position (CKP) sensor
The CKP is located in the transmission housing with its tip adjacent to the outer circumference of the flywheel. The
CKP sensor works on the variable reluctance principle, which sends a signal back to the ECM in the form of an ac
voltage.
The ECM uses the signal from the CKP for the following functions:
lTo calculate engine speed.
lTo determine engine crank position.
lTo determine fuel injection timing.
The CKP sensor works as a Variable Reluctance Sensor (VRS). It uses an electromagnet and a target ring to generate
a signal. As the target 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 outer circumference of the flywheel acts as the target ring for the sensor. The flywheel is divided into 36 segments
each of 10
°. 31 segments have drilled holes and 5 segments are spaces. This equals 360° or one engine revolution.
The 5 spaces correspond to the TDC position of the 5 cylinders, this allows the ECM to control fuel injection timing
for each of the cylinders.
Input/Output
The two pins on the sensor are both outputs. The ECM processes the outputs of the sensor. To protect the integrity
of the CKP signal an earth shield or screen is used.
The ECM measures the outputs from the CKP. The ECM measures the positive signal from the CKP at pin 13 of ECM
connector C0158. The ECM measures the negative signal from the CKP at pin 36 of ECM connector C0158. The earth
path is via pin 16 of ECM connector C0158.
Voltage generation from the CKP sensor is relative to engine speed. The values expected from a good CKP sensor
are as follows:
l2 to 3 volts with engine cranking.
lRising to 6 to 6.5 volts from 1000 rev/min upwards.
The above readings are dependent upon correct air gap between the tip of the CKP sensor and the passing teeth of
the reluctor ring.

18-1-36 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Cruise control set/accelerate (SET+) switch
The cruise control SET+ switch is located on the vehicle steering wheel. The switch is a momentary switch and when
pressed by the driver reacts as follows:
lRequests the cruise control to become active and set at the current road speed if not already set.
lIf the cruise control is already set, pressing the switch increases the road speed at 1 mph (1.6 km/h) intervals.
The cruise control SET+ switch will only become active and operate under the following conditions:
lThe vehicle speed must be above 22 mph (35 km/h).
lThe cruise control master switch must be 'on'.
lThe brake pedal must not be pressed.
lThe automatic transmission must be in 'drive'.
lThe clutch pedal must not be pressed.
lThe suspend switch has not been operated.
Input/Output
Input to the cruise control SET+ switch is 12 volts via the main relay. When the switch is pressed the circuit is
completed by the ECM providing an earth path for the relay via pin 11 of connector C0658 of the ECM.
The cruise control SET+ switch can fail as follows:
lOpen circuit.
lShort circuit to voltage supply.
lShort circuit to vehicle earth.
lWiring loom fault In the event of a cruise control SET+ switch failure cruise control does not operate.
Cruise control resume/suspend (RES) switch
The cruise control RES switch is located on the vehicle steering wheel. The switch is a momentary switch and when
pressed by the driver reacts as follows:
lRequests the cruise control to be suspended if it has already been set.
lRequests that cruise control is resumed at the previously set road speed.
The cruise control RES switch will only become active and operate under the following conditions:
lThe vehicle speed must be above 22 mph (35 km/h).
lThe cruise control master switch must be 'on'.
lThe brake pedal must not be pressed.
lThe automatic transmission must be in 'drive'.
lThe clutch pedal must not be pressed.

18-1-40 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Controller Area Network (CAN) system
The CAN system is a high speed serial interface between the ECM and the Electronic Automatic Transmission (EAT)
ECU. The CAN system uses a data bus to transmit information messages between the ECM and the EAT ECU.
Because there are only two components in this CAN system, one will transmit information messages and the other
will receive information messages, and vice-versa.
The CAN system is used by the EAT ECU and the ECM for the following:
lGearshift torque control information.
lEAT OBD information.
lMIL request.
lVehicle speed signal.
lEngine temperature.
lEngine torque and speed.
lGear selected.
lGear change information.
The CAN system uses a twisted pair of wires to form the data bus to minimise electrical interference. This method of
serial interface is very reliable and very fast. The information messages are structured so that each of the receivers
(ECM or EAT ECU) is able to interpret and react to the messages sent.
The CAN data bus is connected directly between pin 32 of connector C0158 of the ECM and pin 44 of connector
C0193 at the EAT ECU, and pin 35 of connector C0158 of the ECM and pin 16 of connector C0193 at the EAT ECU.
The CAN system can fail in the following ways:
lCAN data bus wiring open circuit.
lCAN data bus wiring short circuit.
In the event of a CAN data bus failure any of the following symptoms may be observed:
lEAT defaults to reverse and 4th gear if the vehicle is moving, 3rd gear if the vehicle is stationary.
lHarsh gearshifts.
lSport and manual warning lamps flash alternately.
Vehicle Speed Signal (VSS)
The VSS is an integral part of the ECM's overall adaptive strategy. The ECM receives the signal direct from the
SLABS ECU. The SLABS ECU is not connected to the controller area network (CAN) so therefore is hard wired.
Vehicles fitted with automatic transmission have two vehicle speed input signals to the ECM. One signal is from the
SLABS ECU and the other is from the automatic transmission ECU. The ECU compares these speed signals.
The ECM also receives transfer gearbox information. This allows the ECM to take in to account the vehicle being
driven using low range gearing and compensate as necessary. The signals generated by the SLABS ECU for manual
transmission, and by the EAT ECU for automatic transmission are received by the ECM in the form of a PWM signal.
The frequency of this signal changes in accordance with road speed.
The input signal for the SLABS is measured via pin 13 of connector C0658 of the ECM. The SLABS ECU generates
a PWM signal switching between 0 and 12 volts at a frequency of 8000 pulses per mile.
For vehicles with automatic transmission the input signal for the EAT ECU is measured via pins 32 and 35 of
connector C0158 of the ECM. These pin numbers provide a bi-directional communications link using the CAN data
bus.
ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - TD5
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-1-41
In the case of a VSS failure on vehicles with automatic transmissions the ECM applies default values derived from
the EAT ECU. There is no default value for manual transmission vehicle.
The VSS can fail in the following ways:
lWiring short circuit to vehicle supply.
lWiring short circuit to vehicle earth.
lWiring open circuit.
In the event of a VSS failure any of the following symptoms may be observed:
lVehicle speed limiting disabled (manual transmission only).
lHill Descent Control (HDC) warning lamp on and audible warning.
Cruise control
All markets have a common cruise control system. The cruise control system, when activated, regulates vehicle
speed. The ECM controls the cruise control system.
Cruise control activation
Cruise control is a passive system, and must be activated by the driver. Cruise control is activated by switching on
the cruise control master switch located on the instrument panel. A LED in the switch illuminates indicating cruise
control is available. The driver must accelerate the vehicle to the desired speed using the accelerator pedal. When
the desired speed is reached, cruise control can be activated by pressing the SET+ switch.
Cruise control will only activate if the following conditions are met:
lVehicle speed is above 22 mph (35 km/h).
lThe brake pedal is not pressed.
lThe clutch pedal is not pressed (manual transmission only).
lThe transmission is not in Park, Reverse or Neutral (automatic transmission only).
The ECM receives the set signal and determines the vehicle speed provided by the SLABS ECU. The ECM then
maintains current road speed.
Cruise control cancellation
Cancelling cruise control enables the driver to regain control of the vehicle speed by using the accelerator pedal.
Cruise control is cancelled if any of the following conditions occur:
lThe brake pedal is pressed.
lThe RES switch is pressed.
lThe clutch pedal is pressed (manual transmission only).
lThe cruise control master switch is switched off.
lThe transmission is placed in Park, Neutral, or Reverse (automatic transmission only).
The ECM cancels cruise control operation and returns it to the control of the accelerator pedal.
The set speed will be stored in the ECM unless:
lThe cruise control master switch is switched off.
lThe ignition is switched off.
If cruise control is deactivated using either of the above methods, the set speed will be erased from the memory of
the ECM.
ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - TD5
18-1-42 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Cruise control resumption
Cruise control can be resumed at the previously set speed, provided the set speed has not been erased from the
ECM's memory as described above.
To resume cruise control operation to the previously set speed, depress the RES switch once when the following
conditions are met:
lA set speed is stored in the ECM.
lVehicle speed is above 22 mph (35 km/h).
lThe brake pedal is not pressed.
lThe clutch pedal is not pressed (manual transmission only).
lThe transmission is not in Park, Reverse or Neutral (automatic transmission only).
The ECM activates the cruise control system at the stored speed.
Accelerating while cruise control is active
There are three ways of increasing vehicle speed when cruise control is active:
lTemporarily increase vehicle speed (e.g. when overtaking another vehicle).
lIncrease vehicle set speed in 1 mph (1.5 km/h) increments.
lIncrease vehicle set speed.
To temporarily increase vehicle speed press the accelerator pedal until the desired speed is reached.
When the accelerator pedal is released, the vehicle coasts back to the set speed. When it reaches the set speed,
cruise control operation continues.
To increase the vehicle set speed in 1 mph (1.5 km/h) increments, tap the SET+ switch. Each tap on the switch
increases vehicle speed.
To increase the vehicle set speed, press and hold the SET+ switch until the desired set speed is reached.
Vehicle set speed will increase if the following conditions are met:
lThe vehicle is under cruise control operation.
lVehicle speed is above 22 mph (35 km/h).
lThe brake pedal is not pressed.
lThe clutch pedal is not pressed (manual transmission only).
lThe transmission is not in Park, Reverse or Neutral (automatic transmission only).
The vehicle responds as follows:
lIf the driver accelerates using the throttle pedal, the ECM increases vehicle speed using the TP sensor signal.
When the driver releases the accelerator pedal, the vehicle returns to the set speed.
lIf the SET+ switch is tapped the stored speed and vehicle speed increases by 1 mph (1.5 km/h) per tap on the
switch.
lIf the driver presses and holds the SET+ switch the vehicle speed will increase and will hold the speed when the
switch is released.
Switching off cruise control
Switching off cruise control allows the driver to regain control of vehicle speed, and erases the set road speed from
the ECM's memory.
To switch off cruise control, press the cruise control master switch to the off position.
When the cruise control master switch is switched off, the ECM deactivates cruise control and the driver regains
control of vehicle speed.
