Engine Management System

OVERVIEW
The 5.0-Liter V8 normally aspirated (NA) and super-
charged (SC) engines are managed by the engine control
module (ECM), which controls the following:
• Engine fuel metering
• Ignition timing
• Camshaft timing
• Camshaft Profile Switching (CPS)
• Closed loop fuel metering
• Knock control
• Idle speed control
• Emission control
• On-Board Diagnostics (OBD)
• Interface with the immobilization system
• Speed control
The ECM controls the engine fuel metering by provid-
ing sequential fuel injection to all cylinders. Ignition is
controlled by a direct ignition system, provided by eight
coil-on-plug (COP) units. The ECM is able to detect and
correct for ignition knock on each cylinder and adjust the
ignition timing for each cylinder to achieve optimum
performance.
The ECM uses a torque-based strategy to generate the
torque required by driver demand and the other vehicle
control modules, using input from various sensors to cal-
culate the required torque. The ECM also interfaces with
other vehicle electronic control modules to obtain addi-
tional information (road speed from the ABS control
module, for example). The ECM processes these signals
and determines how much torque to generate, using vari-
ous actuators to supply air, fuel, and spark to the engine
(electronic throttle, injectors, coils, etc.).

Engine Control Module

Engine Management System

ENGINE CONTROL MODULE
The ECM is supplied with battery voltage from a 5A fuse and an ignition supply from the ECM relays through\
a 15A
fuse, both located in the CJB. A regulator located within the ECM supplies a 5V current to internal compone\
nts such
as the microprocessor unit. Other components or functions requiring full\
battery voltage are controlled by external
relays or internal switching modules.
The microprocessor within the ECM receives signals from different components and control modules and uses a pro-
gram within the ECM software to interpret the signal information and issue signals which relate t\
o how the engine
components and functions should be controlled. The ECM communicates with other control modules via bidirectional
Controller Area Network (CAN) communication interfaces.
The ECM uses the following inputs and outputs:
Inputs
• Camshaft position (CMP) sensor
• Crankshaft position (CKP) sensor
• Fuel rail high-pressure sensor
• Mass air flow (MAF) sensors (2)
• Knock sensors (4)
• Engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor
• Manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor
• Electronic throttle position sensor
• Accelerator pedal position (APP) sensor
• Cooling fan speed
• Upstream Universal Heated Exhaust Gas Oxygen (UHEGO) sensors (2)
• Brake switch
• Speed control cancel/suspend switch
• Intake air temperature (IAT) sensor (integrated into the MAF) (2)
• Ambient air temperature (AAT) sensor
• Engine oil level and temperature sensor
• Temperature and manifold absolute pressure (TMAP) sensor (SC only)
Outputs

• Coil-on-plug (COP) ignition coils (8)
• Upstream Universal Heated Exhaust Gas Oxygen (UHEGO) sensors (2)
• Downstream Heated Oxygen Sensors (HO2S) (2)
• Direct injection fuel injectors (8)
• Variable camshaft timing (VCT) solenoids (4)
• Camshaft profile switching (CPS) solenoids (2)
• Intake manifold tuning solenoid
• Carbon canister purge valve
• Fuel pump relay
• Starter relay
• A/C condenser fan relay

Camshaft Position Sensor

CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR
The camshaft position (CMP) sensors are magneto-
resistive element (MRE) sensors, which have digital out-
put with zero speed recognition. They show a high signal
if the camshaft position target is directly in front of the
sensor, and low if the camshaft position target is not in
front of the sensor.
There are four common sensors, one per camshaft.
Failure Modes
• Sensor open circuit
• Short circuit to vehicle battery supply or ground
• Mechanical fitting and integrity of the sensor
• Camshaft wheel tolerances/camshaft end float excessive
• Camshaft and crankshaft misalignment/valve timing error
• Camshaft wheel magnetized/residual magnetism
• Speed signal correlation with crankshaft sensor input
• Incorrect air gap between camshaft and sensor
NOTE:
If both the CKP sensor and the CMP sensor fail,
the engine will stall or not start.
Failure Symptoms
• Ignition timing reverting to the base mapping, with no cylinder correction
• VCT is disabled

Controller Area Network Engine Management System
CONTROLLER AREA NETWORK
The Controller Area Network (CAN) is a high-speed
serial interface for sharing dynamic signals between elec-
tronic control modules. CAN communications are ‘self-
checked’ for errors, and if an error is detected the message
is ignored by the receiving electronic control module.
Due to the high rate of information exchange, the system
has a high degree of latency. This allows for a high num-
ber of errors to be present without reducing the data
transfer rate. In practice, this is a very reliable system.
Each CAN message is transmitted by one electronic con-
trol module and received by all other electronic control
modules on the CAN bus. Each message contains a fixed
structure of signals. The data exchanged is used so that
each electronic control module does not need to have a
hardwired sensor for each input. The CAN message iden-
tifiers are arranged by a network tool, which can guarantee
that all messages meet their specified timing needs.
Signal Overview
The CAN communication system is a differential bus
using a twisted pair that is normally very reliable. If either
or both of the wires of the twisted pair CAN bus is open-
or short-circuited, a CAN time-out fault will occur.
Below is a list of additional electronic control modules that
the ECM will communicate with on the CAN network:
• Instrument cluster
• Steering angle sensor
•TCM
• Active rear locking differential, if equipped
• Adaptive cruise control
• Electronic parking brake
Failure Modes
• CAN bus wiring short circuit or open circuit
• Incompatible software and message versions
