The engine is controlled by the PCM.
The PCM uses various sensors to calculate the
optimum ignition timing, the optimum injection
quantity and injection time and the position of the
throttle. In addition, various corrections are carried
out, including adjustment of the ignition timing using
the KS and adjustment of the fuel quantity by the Lambda control. Boost pressure control and fuel
pressure control are also performed by the PCM.
For all work on the engine electronics, it is
essential to ensure that the connectorsare
seated and locked properly.

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.

Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor
E89994
The CKP sensor can be checked during starting
by measuring the resistance and/or voltage with
the oscilloscope.
The engine cannot work without the CKP signal.
A limp-home mode is therefore not possible. The
engine is switched off or the engine will not start
and a fault is stored in the error memory of the
PCM.
Camshaft adjuster solenoid valve
E96870
For work on the camshaft adjuster solenoids,
extreme cleanliness must be ensured as even
slight impurities can result in failure. The camshaft
adjustment solenoids for the intake and exhaust
camshafts differ only in terms of the position of the
fastening point by which they are fixed to the
cylinder head cover.
If a fault is detected in the camshaft adjustment
solenoids, the solenoids are no longer actuated.
Manifold absolute pressure and
temperature sensor
E96146
During installation of the MAPT sensor, correct
sealing must be ensured to ensure that no
infiltrated air can penetrate into the intake manifold
from outside.
If the MAP (manifold absolute pressure) sensor
fails, the PCM operates with a substitute value.
Accelerator pedal position (APP)
sensor
E74146
The APP (accelerator pedal position) sensor
comprises two separate sensors.

FORD KUGA 2011.0MY WORKSHOP REPAIR MANUAL

If one of the two APP sensors fails, then only a
proportion of the engine's power will be available
when accelerating. Top speed can nevertheless
be achieved.
If both of the APP sensors fail, the engine is
regulated to a defined speed following a plausibility
check after the BPP (brake pedal position) switch
and brake light switch have been actuated once.
The vehicle can then only be accelerated to a
defined speed.
In either case, a fault is saved in the error memory
of the PCM.

CAUTION: The throttle control unit must
not be repaired or adjusted. The stop of
the throttle valve must on no account be
adjusted.
After disconnecting the battery or replacing the
throttle control unit or the PCM, initialization is
necessary. • engine off
• Accelerator pedal not pressed
• Battery voltage 11 ... 14 V
• Ignition key in ON position
• Wait approximately 30 seconds until initialization
is complete.
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT)
sensor
E94804
The ECT (engine coolant temperature) sensor is
designed as an NTC (negative temperature
coefficient) resistor.
If the signal from the ECT sensor fails, the cooling
fan is on all the time and the A/C (air conditioning)
is turned off. When the ignition is switched on, the
value from the IAT (intake air temperature) sensor
is read. When the engine is running, the
temperature is calculated using a temperature map
stored in the PCM according to how long the
engine has been running. This substitute value is
then used as the basis for calculating the injected
fuel quantity and the ignition timing.

The resistance in the ignition coil primary circuit
cannot be checked using a multimeter because
the power output stage is integrated into the ignition
coil.
