DAEWOO M-150 BL2
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-

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-

STRATEGY-BASED DIAGNOSTICS
Strategy-Based Diagnostics
The strategy-based diagnostic is a uniform approach to
repair all Electrical/Electronic (E/E) systems. The diag-
nostic flow can always be used to resolve an E/E system
problem and is a starting point when repairs are neces-
sary. The following steps will instruct the technician on
how to proceed with a diagnosis:
Verify the customer complaint. To verify the customer
complaint, the technician should know the normal op-
eration of the system.

Perform preliminary checks as follows:

Conduct a thorough visual inspection.

Review the service history.

Detect unusual sounds or odors.

Gather Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) information to
achieve an effective repair.

Check bulletins and other service information. This
includes videos, newsletters, etc.

Refer to service information (manual) system
check(s).

Refer to service diagnostics.
No Trouble Found
This condition exists when the vehicle is found to oper-
ate normally. The condition described by the customer
may be normal. Verify the customer complaint against
another vehicle that is operating normally. The condition
may be intermittent. Verify the complaint under the con-
ditions described by the customer before releasing the
vehicle.
Re-examine the complaints.
When the complaints cannot be successfully found or
isolated, a re-evaluation is necessary. The complaint
should be re-verified and could be intermittent as de-
fined in “intermittents,” or could be normal.
After isolating the cause, the repairs should be made.
Validate for proper operation and verify that the symp-
tom has been corrected. This may involve road testing
or other methods to verify that the complaint has re-
solved under following conditions:

Conditions noted by the customer.

If a DTC was diagnosed, verify the repair be duplicat-
ing conditions present when the DTC was set as
noted in Failure Records or Freeze Frame data.
Verifying Vehicle Repair
Verification of the vehicle repair will be more compre-
hensive for vehicles with Euro On-Board Diagnostic
(EOBD) system diagnostics. Following a repair, the
technician should perform the following steps:
Important: Follow the steps below when you verify re-
pairs on EOBD systems. Failure to follow these steps
could result in unnecessary repairs.

Review and record the Failure Records and the
Freeze Frame data for the DTC which has been diag-
nosed (Freeze Fame data will only be stored for an A,
B and E type diagnostic and only if the Malfunction
Indicator Lamp has been requested).

Clear the DTC(s).

Operate the vehicle within conditions noted in the
Failure Records and Freeze Frame data.

Monitor the DTC status information for the specific
DTC which has been diagnosed until the diagnostic
test associated with that DTC runs.
EOBD SERVICEABILITY ISSUES
Based on the knowledge gained from Euro On-Board
Diagnostic (OBD) experience in the 1994 and 1995
model years in United Status, this list of non-vehicle
faults that could affect the performance of the Euro On-
Board Diagnostic (EOBD) system has been compiled.
These non-vehicle faults vary from environmental condi-
tions to the quality of fuel used. With the introduction of
EOBD across the entire passenger car, illumination of
the Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) due to a non-ve-
hicle fault could lead to misdiagnosis of the vehicle, in-
creased warranty expense and customer
dissatisfaction. The following list of non-vehicle faults
does not include every possible fault and may not apply
equally to all product lines.
Fuel Quality
Fuel quality is not a new issue for the automotive indus-
try, but its potential for turning on the MIL with EOBD
systems is new.
Fuel additives such as “dry gas” and “octane enhancers”
may affect the performance of the fuel. If this results in
an incomplete combustion or a partial burn, it will set
Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P0300. The Reed Vapor
Pressure of the fuel can also create problems in the fuel
system, especially during the spring and fall months
when severe ambient temperature swings occur. A high
Reed Vapor Pressure could show up as a Fuel Trim
DTC due to excessive canister loading.
Using fuel with the wrong octane rating for your vehicle
may cause driveability problems. Many of the major fuel
companies advertise that using “premium” gasoline will
improve the performance of your vehicle. Most premium

Remember, a fuel trim Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC)
may be triggered by a list of vehicle faults. Make use of
all information available (other DTCs stored, rich or lean
condition, etc.) when diagnosing a fuel trim fault.
COMPREHENSIVE COMPONENT
MONITOR DIAGNOSTIC OPERATION
Comprehensive component monitoring diagnostics are
required to monitor emissions-related input and output
powertrain components.
Input Components
Input components are monitored for circuit continuity
and out-of-range values. This includes rationality check-
ing. Rationality checking refers to indicating a fault when
the signal from a sensor does not seem reasonable, i.e.
Throttle Position (TP) sensor that indicates high throttle
position at low engine loads or Manifold Absolute Pres-
sure (MAP) voltage. Input components may include, but
are not limited to, the following sensors:

Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS).

Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor.

Throttle Position (TP) sensor.

Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor.

Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor.

MAP sensor.
In addition to the circuit continuity and rationality check,
the ECT sensor is monitored for its ability to achieve a
steady state temperature to enable closed loop fuel con-

Output Components
Output components are diagnosed for proper response
to control module commands. Components where func-
tional monitoring is not feasible will be monitored for cir-
cuit continuity and out-of-range values if applicable.
Output components to be monitored include, but are not
limited to the following circuit:

Idle Air Control (IAC) Motor.

Controlled Canister Purge Valve.

A/C relays.

Cooling fan relay.

VSS output.

Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) control.
Refer to “Engine Control Module” and the sections on
Sensors in General Descriptions.
Passive and Active Diagnostic Tests
A passive test is a diagnostic test which simply monitors
a vehicle system or component. Conversely, an activetest, actually takes some sort of action when performing
diagnostic functions, often in response to a failed pas-
sive test. For example, the Electric Exhaust Gas Recir-
culation (EEGR) diagnostic active test will force the
EEGR valve open during closed throttle deceleration
and/or force the EEGR valve closed during a steady
state. Either action should result in a change in manifold
pressure.
Intrusive Diagnostic Tests
This is any Euro On-Board test run by the Diagnostic
Management System which may have an effect on ve-
hicle performance or emission levels.
Warm-Up Cycle
A warm-up cycle means that engine at temperature
must reach a minimum of 70C (160F) and rise at least
22C (40F) over the course of a trip.
Freeze Frame
Freeze Frame is an element of the Diagnostic Manage-
ment System which stores various vehicle information at
the moment an emissions-related fault is stored in
memory and when the MIL is commanded on. These
data can help to identify the cause of a fault.
Failure Records
Failure Records data is an enhancement of the EOBD
Freeze Frame feature. Failure Records store the same
vehicle information as does Freeze Frame, but it will
store that information for any fault which is stored in
Euro On-Board memory, while Freeze Frame stores in-
formation only for emission-related faults that command
the MIL on.
COMMON EOBD TERMS
Diagnostic
When used as a noun, the word diagnostic refers to any
Euro On-Board test run by the vehicle’s Diagnostic Man-
agement System. A diagnostic is simply a test run on a
system or component to determine if the system or com-
ponent is operating according to specification. There are
many diagnostics, shown in the following list:

Misfire.

Oxygen sensors (O2S)

Heated oxygen sensor (HO2S)

Electric Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EEGR)

Catalyst monitoring
Enable Criteria
The term “enable criteria” is engineering language for
the conditions necessary for a given diagnostic test to
run. Each diagnostic has a specific list of conditions
which must be met before the diagnostic will run.
“Enable criteria” is another way of saying “conditions re-
quired.”
