Accessory Drive Belt Tensioner - Dynamic
Check
The accessory drive belt tensioner may be checked
dynamically as follows:
1. With the engine running, observe the accessory drive belt tensioner movement. The accessory
drive belt tensioner should move (respond)
when the engine is accelerated rapidly or when
the A/C clutch cycles ON and OFF (the degree
of movement can be up to 4 mm). If the
accessory drive belt tensioner movement is not
constant without engine acceleration or A/C
clutch cycling, a pulley or shaft is possibly bent,
out of round, or the damping mechanism inside
the accessory drive belt tensioner may be
damaged. INSTALL a new accessory drive belt
tensioner as necessary.
REFER to: Accessory Drive Belt Tensioner

TEST the system for normal operation.
2. Excessive accessory drive belt rideout (uneven depth of grooves in the accessory drive belt)
may cause excessive accessory drive belt
tensioner movement. Check the condition by
installing a new accessory drive belt.

System Operation
Smart Start
The PCM enables the starting process when a key
providing a valid code is read via the PATS. This
code is then verified in the GEM and compared
with the saved code. If this code is recognized as
correct, synchronization with other modules is
carried out. After successful synchronization, the
engine is cleared to start in the PCM. The PCM
connects earth to the starter relay, which then
connects power to the starter solenoid. As soon
as the engine reaches a certain speed, the PCM
disconnects the starter relay and so turns off the
starter. This protects the starter.
If the engine does not turn or turns only slowly, the
starting process is aborted by the PCM.
The starter is notactivated if:
• the engine is running (i.e. the engine speed is above a particular value),
• the PATS does not permit the engine to be started,
• the clutch pedal is not operated (vehicles with manual transmission),
• the gear selector level is not set to P or N (vehicles with automatic transmission),
• the brake pedal is not operated (vehicles with automatic transmission).
Emergency starting function
If the keyless vehicle system is unable to recognize
the passive key, the vehicle can be started via the
emergency starting function. In this case, there is a passive key mount on the
steering wheel. A PATS transmission/reception
unit is attached to this.
To start the engine, the passive key must be
inserted into the passive key mount. The Start/Stop
button can then be used to turn on the ignition and
start the engine as normal. To deactivate the
PATS, a transponder is fitted in the passive key,
which is read by the transmission/reception unit.

Powertrain Control Module (PCM)
E65160
The PCM communicates with all engine sensors
and the other modules. Communication of the PCM
with the other modules and the system diagnostics
takes place via the CAN (controller area network)
data bus.
The following functions are regulated or controlled
by the PCM:
• Fuel supply to the engine including lambdacontrol
• Ignition setting including knock control
• Idle speed control
• Control of optimum valve timing via the camshaft adjustment for intake and exhaust camshafts
• The refrigerant compressor is controlled by the air conditioning clutch relay and the delivery of
the refrigerant compressor is controlled by a
PWM (pulse width modulation) signal.
• Control of EVAP purge valve
• Boost pressure control
• Control of the cooling fan
• Charging system (Smart Charge)
• Starting system (Smart Start)
If the PCM is isolated from the vehicle electrical
system or the battery is disconnected, the throttle
control unit mustbe initialized.
The PCM is fitted in the engine compartment in the
air filter housing. On right hand drive vehicles a
protective metal plate is also installed to prevent
the plug connector from being pulled off, or make
it harder to pull off, in case of theft. The protective
plate is secured with a shear bolt. The shear bolt
needs to be drilled out in order to remove the
protective plate.
Knock Sensor
E96986
Two KSs are fitted. They are on the cylinder block,
one close to the 2nd cylinder and one close to the
4th cylinder.
When fitting, adhere strictly to the specified
tightening torque, otherwise the KS will not work
properly.
If the signal from one or both KS is implausible or
absent, knock control is deactivated. The PCM
switches to an ignition map that is further away
from the knock limit. As a result, engine damage
caused by combustion knock is avoided. If a fault
occurs, a fault code is stored in the error memory
of the PCM.
Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor
E89993
If one or both CMP sensors fail, a fault is saved in
the error memory of the PCM and the camshaft
adjustment and knock control are deactivated.
