Electronics Training Programme
Bluetooth Contact List
A list of names and phone numbers can be stored wi thin the Bluetooth systems contact list. The list
can include up to 20 entries.
Note: A phone must be connected to the system be fore the contacts list can be accessed.

To add a new contact to the Bluetooth contact list:
Warning: When adding, deleting or listing contacts en sure that the vehicle is stationary with the
handbrake applied, and the gear selector in ‘P’ or ‘N’ (Automatic) or Neutral (Manual).
1. Press the button. When prompted, say ‘Contact List’.
a) If the system responds with ‘Contact list is empty. Do you wish to add a contact?’, say
‘Yes’.
b) If the system responds with ‘Contact li st. Please say a command’, say ‘Add contact’.
If the name sounds like one that is already stored, or if an error is detected, the system asks you to try
again.
2. The system responds with ‘Please say t he name’, recite the contact to be stored.
If the name is accepted, the system responds with ‘Please say the number for ’.
3. Dictate the phone number either as:
• An entire number (without pauses between digits)
• A series of segments (for example, say the 1st 3 digits, then the next 3, etc.), until you
have dictated the entire number
The system repeats the number it heard.
4. When the entire number has been correctly entered say ‘Store’. The system responds with
‘Contact added. Would you like to add another contact?’.
Say ‘No’ to return to the system’s ready state.
Say ‘Yes’ to add another entry.

To delete an entry:
1. Press the button. When prompted, say ‘Contact List’.
a) If the system responds with ‘Contact list. Please say a command’, say ‘Delete
’.
b) If the system responds with ‘Contact list is empty. Do you wish to add a contact?’, say
‘No’. The system then exits to ready state.
2. When the system responds with ‘Are you sure you want to delete the contact ?’,
say ‘Yes’. The system respon ds with ‘Contact deleted’.


To retrieve a list of stored contacts:
• Press the button. When prompted, say ‘Contact List’.
a) If the system responds with ‘Contact list ’. Please say a command’, say ‘List contacts’.
The system begins to list the stored entries.
b) If the system responds with ‘Contact list is empty. Do you wish to add a contact?’, say
‘No’. The system exits to ready state.

AML EOBD System Operation Summary

Electronic Throttle Monitor

Where ETC is used, the system monitor incorporates a complex safety strategy. The main ETC feature is
based around a driver demand torque that is deliver ed as an output shaft torque through the correct
positioning of the throttle plate. The Independent Plausibility Check (IPC) feature performs the primary
monitoring function. This resides within the main microprocessor and is responsible for determining the
driver demand torque and comparing it to an estimate of the actual brake torque delivered. If the generated
torque exceeds the driver demanded torque by a speci fied amount, then the appropriate FMEM action is
taken.

With the IPC feature being on the main processor, an intelligent VQZ watchdog is incorporated on a
separate processor to monitor the performance of the IPC and the main processor. If the VQZ determines
that the IPC function is impaired in any way then it takes the appropriate FMEM action.

Electronic Throttle:
DTCs P0606 PCM Microprocessor fault (MIL)
P2110 Forced limit RPM mode (MIL) (Default throttle, if this is the only
code set then it implies that the IPC detected a power greater then demand
occurrence)
Monitor execution continuous
Monitor Sequence none
Monitoring Duration Less than 200ms to register a fault



The Throttle Plate Position Controller (TPPC) controls the throttle plate to the desired throttle angle. It is
embedded within a separate chip within the PCM. The output of the TPPC is a voltage signal to the H-
bridge driver.

Throttle Plate Position Controller:
DTCs P2100 Throttle actuator control motor circuit open (MIL)
P2101 Throttle actuator control motor circuit range/performance (MIL)
(ETB mis-wired, detected at start-up only)
P2107 Throttle actuator control motor processor (MIL) (TP_CMD or H-
Bridge or TPPC self test fault)
P2111 Throttle actuator control system – stuck open (MIL)
P2112 Throttle actuator control system – stuck closed (MIL)
Monitor execution continuous
Monitor Sequence none
Monitoring Duration Less than 1s to register a fault

The system monitor also determines the validity of an y inputs to the electronic throttle control feature by
checking for opens, shorts, out-of-range values and inconsistencies.

Throttle Position Sensors:

out of range fault)
P0122 Throttle position sensor A circuit low input
P0123 Throttle position sensor A circuit high input
P0124 Throttle position sensor A circuit intermittent

P0224 Throttle position sensor B circuit intermittent
P2135 Throttle position sensor A/B voltage correlation
Monitor execution continuous
Monitor Sequence none
Monitoring Duration Less than 200ms to register a fault

Accelerator Pedal Position Sensors:
DTCs P2121 Pedal position sensor D circuit range/performance
P2122 Pedal position sensor D circuit low input
P2123 Pedal position sensor D circuit high input
P2124 Pedal position sensor D circuit intermittent
P2126 Pedal position sensor E circuit range/performance

P2129 Pedal position sensor E circuit intermittent
P2138 Pedal position sensor D/E voltage correlation

Monitoring Duration Less than 200ms to register a fault

Brake Pedal Switches:
DTCs P0504 Brake switch A/B correlation (BPS on when BLS is off)
P0571 Brake switch A circuit (BPS failed)
P0703 Brake switch B circuit (BLS failed)
P1572 Brake system input failure (BLS failed then BPS failed)
P1703 Brake switch out of self test range (Set when brake is on for KOEO
test or when brake on or off state is not seen for KOER test)
Monitor execution continuous
Monitor Sequence none
Monitoring Duration Not time dependent
