ENGINE TORQUE CONTROL
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001162540
The torque structure is the system which translates the driver's request into a torque supplied by the engine. It
is required for certain functions such as the electronic stability program (ESP), the automatic gearbox or the
sequentialgearbox if fitted).
Each inter-system (ESP, automatic gearbox, sequential gearbox) sends the ECM a torque request viathe CAN
communication. The computer arbitrates between the inter-system torque requests and the driver's request
(comprised of the accelerator pedal or the cruise control/speed limiter function). The result of the arbitration
gives thetorque setpoint.
From this torque setpoint, the computer determines the quantity of fuel to be injected (injection duration and
numberof injections) and the amount of air required (turbocharging pressure and EGR rate) so that the engine
is able toprovide the torque required in the best possible conditions (in terms of smooth running performance,
pollutantemissions, etc.).

COOLING FAN CONTROL
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001162544
The cooling fan motor is controlled by the ECM.
COOLING FAN OPERATION WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING
Cooling fan operate is guaranteed by a 2-speed fan assembly (LOW speed and HIGH speed).The ECM
requests the IPDM E/R to actuate them via the can communication. To provide cooling:
Engine running
- LOW speed is actuated when the engine coolant temperature exceeds 96 °C (205°F) and is deactivated
when it drops below 94 °C (201°F).
- HIGH speed is actuated when the engine coolant temperature exceeds 104 °C (219°F) and is deactivated
when it drops below 102 °C (216°F).
If the engine coolant temperature exceeds the threshold of 115°C (239°F), the ECM requests the IPDM E/R,
via the CAN communication, to switch off the air conditioning compressor so as to reduce the load on the
engine and attempt to limit the rise in temperature. The cut-off request is cancelled if the engine coolant tem-
perature drops below 110°C (230°F).
If a malfunction in the engine coolant temperature sensor circuit is detected, the ECM requests that HIGH
speed operation.
In addition to engine management, the ECM centralises the cooling requirements for the climate control and
automatic transmission/sequential gearbox functions (where fitted).
