1F–4 ENGINE CONTROLS
DAEWOO M-150 BL2
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
IGNITION SYSTEM OPERATION
This ignition system does not use a conventional distrib-
utor and coil. It uses a crankshaft position sensor input
to the Engine Control Module (ECM). The ECM then de-
termines Electronic Spark Timing (EST) and triggers the
electronic ignition system ignition coil.
This type of distributorless ignition system uses a “waste
spark’’ method of spark distribution. Each cylinder is in-
dividural with coil per cylinder.
These systems use the EST signal from the ECM to
control the EST. The ECM uses the following informa-
tion:

Engine load (manifold pressure or vacuum).

Atmospheric (barometric) pressure.

Engine temperature.

Intake air temperature.

Crankshaft position.

Engine speed (rpm).
ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEM
IGNITION COIL
The Electronic Ignition (EI) system ignition coil is
mounted near on the cylinder head.
A terminals of the EI system ignition coil provides the
spark for each spark plug. The EI system ignition coil is
not serviceable and must be replaced as an assembly.
CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
This Electronic Ignition (EI) system uses a magnetic
crankshaft position sensor. This sensor protrudes
through its mount to within approximately 1.3 mm (0.05
inch) of the crankshaft reluctor. The reluctor is a special
wheel attached to the crankshaft with 58 slots machined
into it, 57 of which are equally spaced in 6-degree inter-
vals. The last slot is wider and serves to generate a
“sync pulse.” As the crankshaft rotates, the slots in the
reluctor change the magnetic field of the sensor, creat-
ing an induced voltage pulse. The longer pulse of the
58th slot identifies a specific orientation of the crank-
shaft and allows the Engine Control Module (ECM) to
determine the crankshaft orientation at all times. The
ECM uses this information to generate timed ignition
and injection pulses that it sends to the ignition coils and
to the fuel injectors.
CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
The Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor sends a CMP sig-
nal to the Engine Control Module (ECM). The ECM uses
this signal as a “sync pulse” to trigger the injectors in the
proper sequence. The ECM uses the CMP signal to indi-
cate the position of the #1 piston during its power stroke.
This allows the ECM to calculate true sequential fuel in-jection mode of operation. If the ECM detects an incor-
rect CMP signal while the engine is running, Diagnostic
Trouble Code (DTC) P0341 will set. If the CMP signal is
lost while the engine is running, the fuel injection system
will shift to a calculated sequential fuel injection mode
based on the last fuel injection pulse, and the engine will
continue to run. As long as the fault is present, the en-
gine can be restarted. It will run in the calculated se-
quential mode with a 1-in-6 chance of the injector
sequence being correct.
IDLE AIR SYSTEM OPERATION
The idle air system operation is controlled by the base
idle setting of the throttle body and the Idle Air Control
(IAC) valve.
The Engine Control Module (ECM) uses the IAC valve to
set the idle speed dependent on conditions. The ECM
uses information from various inputs, such as coolant
temperature, manifold vacuum, etc., for the effective
control of the idle speed.
FUEL CONTROL SYSTEM
OPERATION
The function of the fuel metering system is to deliver the
correct amount of fuel to the engine under all operating
conditions. The fuel is delivered to the engine by the in-
dividual fuel injectors mounted into the intake manifold
near each cylinder.
The main fuel control sensors are the Manifold Absolute
Pressure (MAP) sensor, the oxygen sensor (O2S), and
the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S).
The MAP sensor measures or senses the intake man-
ifold vacuum. Under high fuel demands, the MAP sensor
reads a low vacuum condition, such as wide open
throttle. The Engine Control Module (ECM) uses this in-
formation to enrich the mixture, thus increasing the fuel
injector on-time, to provide the correct amount of fuel.
When decelerating, the vacuum increases. This vacuum
change is sensed by the MAP sensor and read by the
ECM, which then decreases the fuel injector on-time
due to the low fuel demand conditions.
The O2S is located in the exhaust manifold. The HO2S
is located in the exhaust pipe. The oxygen sensors indi-
cate to the ECM the amount of oxygen in the exhaust
gas, and the ECM changes the air/fuel ratio to the en-
gine by controlling the fuel injectors. The best air/fuel ra-
tio to minimize exhaust emissions is 14.7:1, which
allows the catalytic converter to operate most efficiently.
Because of the constant measuring and adjusting of the
air/fuel ratio, the fuel injection system is called a “closed
loop” system.
The ECM uses voltage inputs from several sensors to
determine how much fuel to provide to the engine. The

fuel is delivered under one of several conditions, called
“modes.’’
Starting Mode
When the ignition is turned ON, the ECM turns the fuel
pump relay on for 2 seconds. The fuel pump then builds
fuel pressure. The ECM also checks the Engine Coolant
Temperature (ECT) sensor and the Throttle Position
(TP) sensor and determines the proper air/fuel ratio for
starting the engine. The ECM controls the amount of
fuel delivered in the starting mode by changing how long
the fuel injector is turned on and off. This is done by
“pulsing’’ the fuel injectors for very short times.
Run Mode
The run mode has two conditions called “open loop’’ and
“closed loop.’’
Open Loop
When the engine is first started and it is above 400 rpm,
the system goes into “open loop’’ operation. In “open
loop,’’ the ECM ignores the signal from the O2S and cal-
culates the air/fuel ratio based on inputs from the ECT
sensor and the MAP sensor. The ECM stays in ”open
loop” until the following conditions are met:

The O2S has a varying voltage output, showing that it
is hot enough to operate properly.

The ECT sensor is above a specified temperature.

A specific amount of time has elapsed after starting
the engine.
Closed Loop
The specific values for the above conditions vary with
different engines and are stored in the Electronically
Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory (EE-
PROM). When these conditions are met, the system
goes into “closed loop” operation. In “closed loop,” the
ECM calculates the air/fuel ratio (fuel injector on-time)
based on the signals from the oxygen sensors. This al-
lows the air/fuel ratio to stay very close to 14.7 to 1.
Acceleration Mode
The ECM responds to rapid changes in throttle position
and airflow and provides extra fuel.
Deceleration Mode
The ECM responds to changes in throttle position and
airflow and reduces the amount of fuel. When decelera-
tion is very fast, the ECM can cut off fuel completely for
short periods of time.
Battery Voltage Correction Mode
When battery voltage is low, the ECM can compensate
for a weak spark delivered by the ignition module by us-
ing the following methods:

Increasing the fuel injector pulse width.

Increasing the idle speed rpm.

Increasing the ignition dwell time.
Fuel Cut-Off Mode
No fuel is delivered by the fuel injectors when the ignition
is off. This prevents dieseling or engine run-on. Also, the
fuel is not delivered if there are no reference pulses re-
ceived from the CKP sensor. This prevents flooding.
EVAPORATIVE EMISSION CONTROL
SYSTEM OPERATION
The basic Evaporative Emission (EVAP) control system
used is the charcoal canister storage method. This
method transfers fuel vapor from the fuel tank to an acti-
vated carbon (charcoal) storage canister which holds
the vapors when the vehicle is not operating. When the
engine is running, the fuel vapor is purged from the car-
bon element by intake airflow and consumed in the nor-
mal combustion process.
Gasoline vapors from the fuel tank flow into the tube la-
beled TANK. These vapors are absorbed into the car-
bon. The canister is purged by Engine Control Module
(ECM) when the engine has been running for a specified
amount of time. Air is drawn into the canister and mixed
with the vapor. This mixture is then drawn into the intake
manifold.
The ECM supplies a ground to energize the controlled
charcoal canister purge solenoid valve. This valve is
Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) or turned on and off sev-
eral times a second. The controlled charcoal canister
purge PWM duty cycle varies according to operating
conditions determined by mass airflow, fuel trim, and in-
take air temperature.
Poor idle, stalling, and poor driveability can be caused
by the following conditions:

An inoperative controlled canister purge valve.

A damaged canister.

Hoses that are split, cracked, or not connected to the
proper tubes.
CONTROLLED CHARCOAL
CANISTER
The controlled charcoal canister is an emission control
device containing activated charcoal granules. The con-
trolled charcoal canister is used to store fuel vapors from
the fuel tank. Once certain conditions are met, the En-
gine Control Module (ECM) activates the controlled
charcoal canister purge solenoid, allowing the fuel va-
pors to be drawn into the engine cylinders and burned.
POSITIVE CRANKCASE
VENTILATION CONTROL SYSTEM
OPERATION
A Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) control system
is used to provide complete use of the crankcase va-

pors. Fresh air from the air cleaner is supplied to the
crankcase. The fresh air is mixed with blowby gases
which then pass through a vacuum hose into the intake
manifold.
Periodically inspect the hoses and the clamps. Replace
any crankcase ventilation components as required.
A restricted or plugged PCV hose may cause the follow-
ing conditions:

Rough idle

Stalling or low idle speed

Oil leaks

Oil in the air cleaner

Sludge in the engine
A leaking PCV hose may cause the following conditions:

Rough idle

Stalling

High idle speed
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
The Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor is a
thermistor (a resistor which changes value based on
temperature) mounted in the engine coolant stream.
Low coolant temperature produces a high resistance
(100,000 ohms at –40C [–40F]) while high tempera-
ture causes low resistance (70 ohms at 130C [266F]).
The Engine Control Module (ECM) supplies 5 volts to
the ECT sensor through a resistor in the ECM and mea-
sures the change in voltage. The voltage will be high
when the engine is cold and low when the engine is hot.
By measuring the change in voltage, the ECM can de-
termine the coolant temperature. The engine coolant
temperature affects most of the systems that the ECM
controls. A failure in the ECT sensor circuit should set a
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0117 or P0118. Re-
member, these DTC indicate a failure in the ECT circuit,
so proper use of the chart will lead either to repairing a
wiring problem or to replacing the sensor to repair a
problem properly.
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR
The Throttle Position (TP) sensor is a potentiometer
connected to the throttle shaft of the throttle body. The
TP sensor electrical circuit consists of a 5-volt supply
line and a ground line, both provided by the Engine Con-
trol Module (ECM). The ECM calculates the throttle
position by monitoring the voltage on this signal line. The
TP sensor output changes as the accelerator pedal is
moved, changing the throttle valve angle. At a closed
throttle position, the output of the TP sensor is low,
about 0.4–0.8 volt. As the throttle valve opens, the out-
put increases so that, at Wide Open Throttle (WOT), the
output voltage will be about 4.5–5 volts.The ECM can determine fuel delivery based on throttle
valve angle (driver demand). A broken or loose TP sen-
sor can cause intermittent bursts of fuel from the injector
and an unstable idle, because the ECM thinks the
throttle is moving. A problem in any of the TP sensor cir-
cuits should set a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
P0122 or P0123. Once the DTC is set, the ECM will sub-
stitute a default value for the TP sensor and some ve-
hicle performance will return.
CATALYST MONITOR OXYGEN
SENSORS
Three-way catalytic converters are used to control emis-
sions of hydrocarbons (HC), carbon monoxide (CO),
and oxides of nitrogen (NOx). The catalyst within the
converters promotes a chemical reaction. This reaction
oxidizes the HC and CO present in the exhaust gas and
converts them into harmless water vapor and carbon
dioxide. The catalyst also reduces NOx by converting it
to nitrogen. The ECM can monitor this process using the
oxygen sensor (O2S) and heated oxygen sensor
(HO2S). These sensors produce an output signal which
indicates the amount of oxygen present in the exhaust
gas entering and leaving the three-way converter. This
indicates the catalyst’s ability to efficiently convert ex-
haust gasses. If the catalyst is operating efficiently, the
O2S signals will be more active than the signals pro-
duced by the HO2S. The catalyst monitor sensors oper-
ate the same way as the fuel control sensors. The
sensors’ main function is catalyst monitoring, but they
also have a limited role in fuel control. If a sensor output
indicates a voltage either above or below the 450 mV
bias voltage for an extended period of time, the Engine
Control Module (ECM) will make a slight adjustment to
fuel trim to ensure that fuel delivery is correct for catalyst
monitoring.
A problem with the O2S circuit will set DTC P0131,
P0132, P0133 or P0134 depending on the special condi-
tion. A problem with the HO2S signal will set DTC
P0137, P0138, P0140 or P0141 depending on the spe-
cial condition.
A fault in the heated oxygen sensor (HO2S) heater ele-
ment or its ignition feed or ground will result in lower oxy-
gen sensor response. This may cause incorrect catalyst
monitor diagnostic results.
ELECTRIC EXHAUST GAS
RECIRCULATION VALVE
The Electric Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EEGR) system
is used on engines equipped with an automatic trans-
axle to lower oxides of nitrogen (NOx) emission levels
caused by high combustion temperature. The main ele-
ment of the system is the EEGR valve, controlled electri-
cally by the Engine Control Module (ECM). The EEGR
valve feeds small amounts of exhaust gas into the intake

ENGINE CONTROLS 1F–7
DAEWOO M-150 BL2
manifold to decrease combustion temperature. The
amount of exhaust gas recirculated is controlled by vari-
ations in vacuum and exhaust back pressure. If too
much exhaust gas enters, combustion will not take
place. For this reason, very little exhaust gas is allowed
to pass through the valve, especially at idle.
The EEGR valve is usually open under the following
conditions:

Warm engine operation.

Above idle speed.
Results of Incorrect Operation
Too much EEGR flow tends to weaken combustion,
causing the engine to run roughly or to stop. With too
much EEGR flow at idle, cruise, or cold operation, any of
the following conditions may occur:

The engine stops after a cold start.

The engine stops at idle after deceleration.

The vehicle surges during cruise.

Rough idle.
If the EEGR valve stays open all the time, the engine
may not idle. Too little or no EEGR flow allows combus-
tion temperatures to get too high during acceleration
and load conditions. This could cause the following con-
ditions:

Spark knock (detonation)

Engine overheating

Emission test failure
INTAKE AIR TEMPERATURE
SENSOR
The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) sensor is a thermistor,
a resistor which changes value based on the tempera-
ture of the air entering the engine. Low temperature pro-
duces a high resistance (100 kohms at –40C [–40F]),
while high temperature causes a low resistance (70
ohms at 130C [266F]).
The Engine Control Module (ECM) provides 5 volts to
the IAT sensor through a resistor in the ECM and mea-
sures the change in voltage to determine the IAT. The
voltage will be high when the manifold air is cold and low
when the air is hot. The ECM knows the intake IAT by
measuring the voltage.
The IAT sensor is also used to control spark timing when
the manifold air is cold.
A failure in the IAT sensor circuit sets a diagnostic
trouble code P0112 or P0113.
IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE
Notice: Do not attempt to remove the protective cap
and readjust the stop screw. Misadjustment may result
in damage to the Idle Air Control (IAC) valve or to the
throttle body.The IAC valve is mounted on the throttle body where it
controls the engine idle speed under the command of
the Engine Control Module (ECM). The ECM sends volt-
age pulses to the IAC valve motor windings, causing the
IAC valve pintle to move in or out a given distance (a
step or count) for each pulse. The pintle movement con-
trols the airflow around the throttle valves which, in turn,
control the engine idle speed.
The desired idle speeds for all engine operating condi-
tions are programmed into the calibration of the ECM.
These programmed engine speeds are based on the
coolant temperature, the park/neutral position switch
status, the vehicle speed, the battery voltage, and the
A/C system pressure, if equipped.
The ECM “learns” the proper IAC valve positions to
achieve warm, stabilized idle speeds (rpm) desired for
the various conditions (park/neutral or drive, A/C on or
off, if equipped). This information is stored in ECM ”keep
alive” memories (information is retained after the ignition
is turned off). All other IAC valve positioning is calcu-
lated based on these memory values. As a result, en-
gine variations due to wear and variations in the
minimum throttle valve position (within limits) do not af-
fect engine idle speeds. This system provides correct
idle control under all conditions. This also means that
disconnecting power to the ECM can result in incorrect
idle control or the necessity to partially press the accel-
erator when starting until the ECM relearns idle control.
Engine idle speed is a function of total airflow into the
engine based on the IAC valve pintle position, the
throttle valve opening, and the calibrated vacuum loss
through accessories. The minimum throttle valve posi-
tion is set at the factory with a stop screw. This setting
allows enough airflow by the throttle valve to cause the
IAC valve pintle to be positioned a calibrated number of
steps (counts) from the seat during “controlled” idle op-
eration. The minimum throttle valve position setting on
this engine should not be considered the “minimum idle
speed,” as on other fuel injected engines. The throttle
stop screw is covered with a plug at the factory following
adjustment.
If the IAC valve is suspected as being the cause of im-
proper idle speed, refer to “Idle Air Control System
Check” in this section.
MANIFOLD ABSOLUTE PRESSURE
SENSOR
The Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor mea-
sures the changes in the intake manifold pressure which
result from engine load and speed changes and con-
verts these to a voltage output.
A closed throttle on engine coast down produces a rela-
tively low MAP output. MAP is the opposite of vacuum.
When manifold pressure is high, vacuum is low. The
MAP sensor is also used to measure barometric pres-
sure. This is performed as part of MAP sensor calcula-

1F–8 ENGINE CONTROLS
DAEWOO M-150 BL2
tions. With the ignition ON and the engine not running,
the Engine Control Module (ECM) will read the manifold
pressure as barometric pressure and adjust the air/fuel
ratio accordingly. This compensation for altitude allows
the system to maintain driving performance while hold-
ing emissions low. The barometric function will update
periodically during steady driving or under a wide open
throttle condition. In the case of a fault in the barometric
portion of the MAP sensor, the ECM will set to the de-
fault value.
A failure in the MAP sensor circuit sets a diagnostic
trouble codes P0107, P0108 or P0106.
ENGINE CONTROL MODULE
The Engine Control Module (ECM), is the control center
of the fuel injection system. It constantly looks at the in-
formation from various sensors and controls the sys-
tems that affect the vehicle’s performance. The ECM
also performs the diagnostic functions of the system. It
can recognize operational problems, alert the driver
through the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL), and store
diagnostic trouble code(s) which identify the problem
areas to aid the technician in making repairs.
There are no serviceable parts in the ECM. The calibra-
tions are stored in the ECM in the Programmable Read
Only Memory (PROM).
The ECM supplies either 5 or 12 volts to power the sen-
sors or switches. This is done through resistance in the
ECM which are so high in value that a test light will not
come on when connected to the circuit. In some cases,
even an ordinary shop voltmeter will not give an accu-
rate reading because its resistance is too low. You must
use a digital voltmeter with a 10 megohm input imped-
ance to get accurate voltage readings. The ECM con-
trols output circuits such as the fuel injectors, the Idle Air
Control (IAC) valve, the A/C clutch relay, etc., by control-
ling the ground circuit through transistors or a device
called a “quad-driver.”
FUEL INJECTOR
The Multi-port Fuel Injection (MFI) assembly is a sole-
noid-operated device controlled by the Engine Control
Module (ECM) that meters pressurized fuel to a single
engine cylinder. The ECM energizes the fuel injector or
solenoid to a normally closed ball or pintle valve. This al-
lows fuel to flow into the top of the injector, past the ball
or pintle valve, and through a recessed flow director
plate at the injector outlet.
The director plate has six machined holes that control
the fuel flow, generating a conical spray pattern of finely
atomized fuel at the injector tip. Fuel from the tip is di-
rected at the intake valve, causing it to become further
atomized and vaporized before entering the combustion
chamber. A fuel injector which is stuck partially open
would cause a loss of fuel pressure after the engine is
shut down. Also, an extended crank time would be no-
ticed on some engines. Dieseling could also occur be-cause some fuel could be delivered to the engine after
the ignition is turned off.
FUEL CUT-OFF SWITCH
The fuel cutoff switch is a safety device. In the event of a
collision or a sudden impact, it automatically cuts off the
fuel supply and activates the door lock relay. After the
switch has been activated, it must be reset in order to
restart the engine. Reset the fuel cutoff switch by press-
ing the rubber top of the switch. The switch is located
near the right side of the passenger’s seat.
KNOCK SENSOR
The knock sensor detects abnormal knocking in the en-
gine. The sensor is mounted in the engine block near the
cylinders. The sensor produces an AC output voltage
which increases with the severity of the knock. This sig-
nal is sent to the Engine Control Module (ECM). The
ECM then adjusts the ignition timing to reduce the spark
knock.
VARIABLE RELUCTANCE (VR)
SENSOR
The variable reluctance sensor is commonly refered to
as an “inductive” sensor.
The VR wheel speed sensor consists of a sensing unit
fixed to the left side front macpherson strut, for non-ABS
vehicle.
The ECM uses the rough road information to enable or
disable the misfire diagnostic. The misfire diagnostic
can be greatly affected by crankshaft speed variations
caused by driving on rough road surfaces. The VR sen-
sor generates rough road information by producing a
signal which is proportional to the movement of a small
metal bar inside the sensor.
If a fault occurs which causes the ECM to not receive
rough road information between 30 and 70 km/h (1.8
and 43.5 mph), Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P1391
will set.
OCTANE NUMBER CONNECTOR
The octane number connector is a jumper harness that
signal to the engine control module (ECM) the octane
rating of the fuel.
The connector is located on the next to the ECM. There
are two different octane number connector settings
available. The vehicle is shipped from the factory with a
label attached to the jumper harness to indicate the oc-
tane rating setting of the ECM. The ECM will alter fuel
delivery and spark timing based on the octane number
setting. The following table shows which terminal to
jump on the octane number connector in order to
achieve the correct fuel octane rating. Terminal 2 is
ground on the octane number connector. The find the
