EMISSION CONTROL - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 17-2-35
Failure of the closed loop control of the exhaust emission system may be attributable to one of the failure modes
indicated below:
lMechanical fitting & integrity of the sensor.
lSensor open circuit / disconnected.
lShort circuit to vehicle supply or ground.
lLambda ratio outside operating band.
lCrossed sensors.
lContamination from leaded fuel or other sources.
lChange in sensor characteristic.
lHarness damage.
lAir leak into exhaust system (cracked pipe / weld or loose fixings).
System failure will be indicated by the following symptoms:
lMIL light on (NAS and EU-3 only).
lDefault to open-loop fuelling for the defective cylinder bank.
lIf sensors are crossed, engine will run normally after initial start and then become progressively unstable with
one bank going to its maximum rich clamp and the other bank going to its maximum lean clamp – the system will
then revert to open-loop fuelling.
lHigh CO reading
lStrong smell of H
2S (rotten eggs)
lExcessive emissions
Fuel metering
When the engine is cold, additional fuel has to be provided to the air:fuel mixture to assist starting. This supplementary
fuel enrichment continues until the combustion chamber has heated up sufficiently during the warm-up phase.
Under normal part-throttle operating conditions the fuel mixture is adjusted to provide minimum fuel emissions and
the air:fuel mixture is held close to the optimum ratio (
λ = 1). The engine management system monitors the changing
engine and environmental conditions and uses the data to determine the exact fuelling requirements necessary to
maintain the air:fuel ratio close to the optimum value that is needed to ensure effective exhaust emission treatment
through the three-way catalytic converters.
During full-throttle operation the air:fuel mixture needs to be made rich to provide maximum torque. During
acceleration, the mixture is enriched by an amount according to engine temperature, engine speed, change in throttle
position and change in manifold pressure, to provide good acceleration response.
When the vehicle is braking or travelling downhill the fuel supply can be interrupted to reduce fuel consumption and
eliminate exhaust emissions during this period of operation.
If the vehicle is being used at altitude, a decrease in the air density will be encountered which needs to be
compensated for to prevent a rich mixture being experienced. Without compensation for altitude, there would be an
increase in exhaust emissions and problems starting, poor driveability and black smoke from the exhaust pipe. For
open loop systems, higher fuel consumption may also occur.

Turbocharger
1Exhaust gas from manifold
2Studs to exhaust manifold
3Turbocharger cast iron housing
4Wastegate valve linkage
5Exhaust gas out to front exhaust pipe
6Compressed intake air
7Fresh intake air
8Turbocharger aluminium alloy housing
9Wastegate valve vacuum port
The Td5 engine utilises a Garrett GT20 turbocharger with an electronically controlled wastegate modulator to improve
engine performance. The turbocharger uses the engine's exhaust gas to spin a turbine at very high speed. This
causes inlet air on the other side of the turbine to be drawn in through the turbocharger intake for compression. The
inlet air is carried round by the vanes of the compressor and then thrown out under centrifugal force from the
turbocharger's outlet duct. This compression of air enables a greater quantity of air to be delivered to the inlet manifold
via an intercooler. Combustion is improved through better volumetric efficiency. The use of a turbocharger improves
fuel consumption and increases engine torque and power. Exhaust noise is also reduced due to the smoothing out of
exhaust pulsations.
The rear cast iron body of the turbocharger housing connects to a port on the exhaust manifold at the LH side of the
cylinder head by three studs and nuts. The interface between the exhaust manifold and the turbocharger housing is
separated by a metal gasket. The exhaust outlet of the turbocharger is located at the bottom of the turbocharger cast
iron housing; it is connected to the exhaust system front downpipe and is attached by three studs and nuts. The
interface between the turbocharger housing and the exhaust front pipe is separated by a metal gasket.
The front casing of the turbocharger is constructed from aluminium alloy and is connected to the air inlet duct by a
metal band clip. The compressed air outlet is connected to the intercooler by a metal pipe which has rubber hose
extensions at each end attached by metal band clips.

Operation
Engine management
The ECM controls the operation of the engine using stored information within its memory. This guarantees optimum
performance from the engine in terms of torque delivery, fuel consumption and exhaust emissions in all operating
conditions, while still giving optimum driveability.
The ECM will receive information from its sensors under all operating conditions, especially during:
lCold starting.
lHot starting.
lIdle.
lWide open throttle.
lAcceleration.
lAdaptive strategy.
lBackup strategy for sensor failures.
The ECM receives information from various sensors to determine the current operating state of the engine. The ECM
then refers this information to stored values in its memory and makes any necessary changes to optimise air/fuel
mixture and fuel injection timing. The ECM controls the air/fuel mixture and fuel injection timing via the Electronic Unit
Injectors (EUI), by the length of time the EUI's are to inject fuel into the cylinder. This is a rolling process and is called
adaptive strategy. By using this adaptive strategy the ECM is able to control the engine to give optimum driveability
under all operating conditions.
During cold start conditions the ECM uses ECT information to allow more fuel to be injected into the cylinders, this
combined with the glow plug timing strategy supplied by the ECM facilitates good cold starting.
During hot start conditions the ECM uses ECT and FT information to implement the optimum fuelling strategy to
facilitate good hot starting.
During idle and wide open throttle conditions the ECM uses mapped information within its memory to respond to input
information from the throttle pedal position sensor to implement the optimum fuelling strategy to facilitate idle and wide
open throttle.
To achieve an adaptive strategy for acceleration the ECM uses input information from the CKP sensor, TP sensor,
ECT sensor, MAP/ IAT sensor, and the FT sensor. This is compared to mapped information within its memory to
implement the optimum fuelling strategy to facilitate acceleration.
Immobilisation system
When the starter switch is turned on, the BCU sends a unique security code to the ECM. The ECM must accept this
code before it will allow the engine to operate. If the ECM receives no security code or the ECM receives the incorrect
security code, then the ECM allows the engine to run for 0.5 seconds only. During this operation all other ECM
functions remain as normal.
The ECM operates immobilisation in three states:
l'New.'
l'Secure'.
l'No Code'.
When an ECM is unconfigured it will operate in the 'New' state. When an unconfigured ECM is installed the engine
can be started and operated once only, then the ECM has to be re-configured to either 'secure' or 'no code'
configuration depending on whether a security system is fitted to the vehicle. This is achieved by using TestBook.
ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - TD5
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 - V8
18-2-30 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
There are eight fuel injectors one per cylinder that the ECM operates sequentially. All the injectors are fed from a
common fuel rail as part of the returnless fuel system. Fuel pressure is maintained at a constant 3.5 bar (52 lbf.in2) by
a regulator that is integral with the fuel pump.
+ FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM - V8, DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION, Description.
Input/Output
All eight fuel injectors are supplied with battery voltage via fuse number 1 located in engine compartment fuse box.
The ECM controls the individual earth path for each injector via its own pin at connector C0636 of the ECM multiplug.
This facility allows the ECM to control the fuel injectors so that sequential fuel injection can take place.
Typical hot engine injector pulse width values:
lIdle = 2.5 ms.
lPeak torque (3000 rev/min) = 7 ms The ECM controls injector earth as follows:
lCylinder No 1 - pin 41 of connector C0636 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder No 2 - pin 1 of connector C0636 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder No 3 - pin 27 of connector C0636 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder No 4 - pin 40 of connector C0636 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder No 5 - pin 2 of connector C0636 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder No 6 - pin 15 of connector C0636 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder No 7 - pin 14 of connector C0636 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder No 8 - pin 28 of connector C0636 of the ECM multiplug.
Individual injectors can be measured for resistance using a multimeter. An acceptable injector resistance is as follows:
l14.5
± 0.7 ohms at 20 °C (68 °F).
The fuel injectors can fail in the following ways or supply incorrect signal:
lInjector actuator open circuit.
lShort circuit to vehicle supply.
lShort circuit to vehicle earth.
lBlocked injector.
lRestricted injector.
lLow fuel pressure.
In the event of fuel injector signal failure any of the following symptoms may be observed:
lRough running.
lDifficult starting.
lEngine misfire.
lPossible catalyst damage.
lHigh emissions.
lAdaptive fuelling disabled.
lAdaptive idle speed control disabled.
The ECM performs three types of fuel injector diagnostic check:
lOutput short circuit to earth
lOutput short circuit to battery voltage
lOutput open circuit

Hill Descent Control (HDC) signal
The ECM transmits throttle angle, engine torque, engine identification (Td5 or V8), and transmission type (automatic
or manual) data to the SLABS ECU to support the Hill Descent Control system. The information is transmitted via a
0 – 12V pulse width modulated (PWM) signal at a frequency of 179.27 Hz.
Function
The HDC signal output from the ECM is via pin 29 of connector C0636. The ECM generates a PWM signal that varies
in pulse width in accordance with changing throttle angle or engine torque. The throttle angle data is transmitted on
pulses 1, 3, 5 and 37. The engine torque data is transmitted on pulses 2,4,6 and 38. The engine and transmission
information is transmitted on pulse 39. A synchronising pulse is transmitted after every 39th pulse.
The HDC signal can fail in the following ways:
lHarness or connector damage
A HDC signal failure may be evident from the following:
lHDC / ABS warning light on
lHDC inoperative
lAudible warning
Should a malfunction of the HDC signal occur, the following fault codes may be evident and can be retrieved by
TestBook:
Low fuel level signal
When the fuel level in the fuel tank becomes low enough to illuminate the low fuel level warning lamp in the instrument
cluster, the instrument cluster generates a low fuel level signal. If the low fuel level signal is present during the ECM
misfire detection function the ECM can use it to check for a 'false misfire'.
Conditions
The fuel sender generates the low fuel level signal when the fuel sender resistance is greater than 158
± 8 ohms.
