Starting process
The PCM enables the starting process when a key
providing a valid code is read via the PATS.
Refer to:Starting System (303-06 Starting System
- 2.5L Duratec (147kW/200PS) - VI5, Description
and Operation).
Alternator control (Smart Charge)
The vehicle is fitted with a Smart Charging charge
system.
In this system, the charge voltage is regulated by
the PCM.
Refer to: Generator (414-02 Generator and
Regulator, Description and Operation).
Component Description
PCM
E73522
A voltage transformer integrated into the PCM
provides various components of the PCM and
sensors on the engine with a 5 volt supply.
Functions which work at battery voltage, such as
the injectors, are controlled via internal power end
stages or, like the ignition coils, via external power
end stages in the ignition coils themselves.
CMP
E89993
The intake and exhaust camshafts each have a
sensor installed on them.
The CMP sensor is realized as a Hall effect sensor
and is provided by the PCM with a 5 volt supply.
The Hall effect sensor emits a signal when the
pulse segments incorporated into the sensor wheel
rotate past the tip of the sensor. If an increase
occurs in the area of the sensor, the PCM receives
a 'high' signal with a maximum voltage of 4.5V. If
a gap occurs in the area of the sensor, a 'low'
signal is sent to the PCM. Here the voltage is
approx. 0.5V.
CKP sensor
E89994
The CKP sensor utilizes the induction principle. A
sinusoidal voltage is sent to the PCM. When
performing a voltage test, ensure that the CKP
sensor is connected to the engine wiring harness
This is necessary, otherwise the sensor will not be
subjected to any load and incorrect measurements
will result.

The KS converts mechanical vibrations of the
cylinder block into electrical pulses which can then
be processed by the PCM.
The KS consists of piezo-ceramic crystals that
generate a voltage when subjected to a mechanical
load.
When fastening the KS, make sure the specified
torque is adhered to. In this way a defined initial
tension is applied to the crystals which exerts an
influence on the operation of the KS.
When the engine is running, the pressure
fluctuations arising due to the combustion process
cause vibrations in the cylinder block. These act
on the crystals in the KS, causing the sensors to
produce an output signal. The stronger the
vibrations, the higher the frequency and the AC
voltage. These signals are evaluated by the PCM
and compared with stored data.

The planar broadband HO2S also allows
measurements of the exhaust gas which deviates
from the stoichiometric ratio (lambda = 1). The
measuring range extends from lambda 0.7 to 2.8,

constant signal.
The broadband HO2S consists of a Nernst
concentration cell and an oxygen pump cell, which
transports the oxygen ions.

Between the oxygen pump cell and the Nernst
measuring electrode, there is a diffusion gap which
acts as the measuring area and is connected to
the exhaust gas. The Nernst concentration cell is
connected via a duct with the ambient reference
air and the measuring area. It detects the mixture
composition in the measuring area. A concentration
of lambda = 1 is set in the measuring area using
the oxygen ion flow. This is done by applying a
reference voltage which results in a pump current.
When the exhaust gas is lean, the oxygen pump
cell is actuated in such a way that oxygen ions are
pumped out of the measuring area. This is detected
by the regulating switch, so that the flow can move
(positive direction).
If the exhaust gas is rich, then the current direction
is reversed, i.e. the cell pumps oxygen ions into
the measuring area. The regulating switch detects
this, so the flow is reversed (negative direction).

The pump current represents a direct measurement
of the mixture composition. With lambda 1 (14.7
kg air/1 kg fuel), the pump current is 0 mA. The
relatively small measured current is converted into
a voltage signal in the PCM using an evaluation
circuit. The heating of the broadband HO2S is
supplied with a reference voltage of 11 to 14V. The
operating temperature of the broadband HO2S is
650 - 900 °C.
The characteristic curve of the broadband HO2S
is constant (linear), without a lambda jump.
VCT (variable camshaft timing) solenoids
The camshaft adjustment solenoids are multi-way
solenoid valves that are actuated with a PWM
signal, thereby allowing the valve plungers to be
steplessly adjusted.

The MAF sensor works on the ‘hot-film principle’.
The MAF sensor is powered via the Powertrain
Control Module relay in the BJB. The MAF sensor
is connected to ground via the PCM.
The MAF sensor sits in a molded part which
protrudes into the center of the air cleaner's outlet
pipe. From this position, it measures the air mass
drawn in by the engine.
The air mass aspirated by the engine is determined
on the basis of the cooling effect of the intake air
via a hot-film element in the MAF sensor. The
greater the aspirated air mass, the greater the
cooling effect and the lower the electrical resistance
of the hot-film element. The electronics in the MAF
sensor process this resistance value and send a

voltage signal to the PCM corresponding to the
aspirated air mass.
This analogue voltage signal is between 0.5V and
5V. Low mass of intake air produces a low voltage
signal. A high mass of intake air produces a
correspondingly high voltage signal.
The MAF sensor is also capable of detecting the
backflow of the intake air. A sensor element is
heated electrically on the integrated chip and then
cooled by the air flowing through. The regulating
switch supplies the heating current in such a way
that it attains a constant excess temperature in
comparison to the intake air. The mass air flow and
the direction of flow can be derived from this
heating current (given in the form of a signal
voltage). Below a certain voltage value there is a
return flow. The direction is flow is registered by
two sensors pointing in different directions. The
measurement does not require a great deal of
software processing effort, even with a strongly
pulsating mass air flow.MAPT
E96146
The MAPT sensor combines two sensors in one
housing. These are the MAP sensor and the IAT
sensor. They take the form of a piezoelectric
resistor and an NTC resistor.
The MAP sensor receives a reference voltage of
5V from the PCM. The output signal from the MAP
sensor element is an analog voltage signal which
changes proportionately to the prevailing pressure
in the intake manifold.
The IAT sensor records the temperature of the
intake air downstream of the intercooler.

The APP sensor is a double contactless inductive
sensor. The APP sensor is integrated with the
accelerator pedal in the accelerator pedal module.
The inductive sensor essentially works in a similar
way to a transformer. The incoming DC voltage
first has to be converted into AC voltage.
Depressing the accelerator pedal moves a rotor.
This induces the AC voltage from the primary coil
into the secondary coil. The strength of the
induction depends on the position of the rotor:
• no accelerator-pedal actuation: low induction, i.e. low amplitude of the AC voltage,
• full accelerator-pedal actuation: high induction, i.e., high amplitude of the AC voltage.
To allow the PCM to process the AC voltage signal
output by the secondary coil, the signal must first
be converted into a PWM signal in the sensor
electronics.
In the APP sensor the signals are split as follows:
– APP 1 = PWM signal to the GEM and from there via the CAN data bus to the PCM.
– APP 2 = the analogue DC (direct current) signal is sent directly to the PCM.
Both signals are monitored by the PCM for
plausibility.
CPP sensor
E70695
The sensor works on the Hall-effect principle and
records the position of the piston in the master
cylinder without contact. The permanent magnet
required for recording the position is located in the
piston of the clutch master cylinder.
The signal from the CPP sensor is recorded by the
GEM and transmitted to the CAN via the PCM bus.
BPP switches
E94800
The BPP switch is designed as normally-closed
contact. In its rest state the switch is closed and
sends an earth signal to the GEM.
The brake light switch is designed as
normally-open contact and is open in its rest state.

CAUTION: The throttle control unit must
not be repaired or adjusted. The stop of
the throttle valve must on no account be
adjusted.
If there is a fault, the throttle is returned to its
original position by means of the throttle valve
return spring. In this position, the throttle valve is
still slightly open. As a result, a higher idle speed
is set, enabling the vehicle to be driven, though
within narrow limits.
ECT sensor
E94804
The ECT sensor is designed as an NTC resistor.
A voltage of 5V is applied to the ECT sensor by
the PCM. The PCM is able to determine the coolant
temperature from the temperature-dependent
voltage drop at the sensor.
Cooling fan module
E94806
The cooling fan module is directly supplied with
battery power via a 60A fuse in the BJB. The
radiator fan speed is controlled by the PWM via a
PCM signal.
