System Operation
The engine is controlled by the PCM. For this
purpose, the PCM uses information from the
sensors, sender units and switches. In addition,
the PCM receives information from other control
modules via the CAN data bus. All the information
is processed in the PCM and is used to control or
regulate the different actuators.
These are:
• the throttle control unit,
• the fuel injectors, • the camshaft adjustment,
• the boost control solenoid valve
• and the ignition coils.
Some values are sent via the CAN databus to other
systems.
The following functions are regulated or controlled
by the PCM:

FORD KUGA 2011.0MY WORKSHOP REPAIR MANUAL

• Starting process
• Engine running– Fuel supply to the engine including lambdacontrol
– Ignition setting including knock control
– Idle speed control
– Boost pressure control
– Valve timing via the camshaft adjuster for the intake and exhaust camshafts (including
internal exhaust gas recirculation)
• Refrigerant compressor (activation, deactivation and delivery)
• EVAP purge valve
• Charging system
Fuel is supplied to the engine via a sequential
multi-point injection system. Ignition is performed
by a distributor-less ignition system with one
ignition coil unit for each cylinder.
The PCM optimizes engine power and emissions
at all times by processing the sensor signals and
information received via the CAN databus and
using these for open or closed loop control of the
different variables.
The PCM contains part of the PATS (passive
anti-theft system).
The PCM is supplied with battery voltage via a fuse
in the BJB (battery junction box). This power supply
is needed to ensure that saved data is not lost
when the engine is switched off.
For other power supply requirements, the PCM
switches on a relay in the BJB which is responsible
for supplying power to the PCM and to some
sensors and actuators. Each of these are protected
by fuses in the BJB.
To guarantee optimum engine running at all times,
the PCM has several adaptive (self-learning)
functions. These adapt the output signals to
changing circumstances, such as wear or system
faults.
In some cases a faulty signal is replaced with a
substitute value or limited. A substitute value can
be calculated from other signals or it can be
predefined by the PCM. The substitute value allows
the vehicle to keep on running without the emission
values changing unduly. Depending on the signal
failure, the PCM operates in emergency mode. In
this mode, the engine power and/or the engine
speed is reduced to prevent further damage.
Depending on the faulty signal, a fault code is
stored in the error memory of the PCM. These can be read out using IDS (Integrated Diagnostic
System) via the DLC.
The PCM processes and evaluates the signals
from the sensors. The following sensors send
signals to the PCM:
• CMP sensors
• CKP sensor
• MAF sensor
•KS
• ECT sensor
• TP sensor
• APP sensor
• Broadband HO2S
• Catalyst monitor sensor
• MAPT sensor
• Air conditioning (A/C) pressure sensor
• Alternator
• Fuel temperature and fuel pressure sensor
• Engine oil level, temperature and quality sensor
• Outside air temperature sensor
The following components receive signals from the
PCM:
• Powertrain Control Module relay
• A/C clutch relay
• injectors
• Direct ignition coils
• Cooling fan module
• Throttle control unit
• Camshaft adjuster solenoid valve
• Starter Relay
• EVAP purge valve
• Alternator
• Heating element - broadband HO2S
• Catalyst monitor sensor heating element
• FPDM
• Wastegate control valve
• Air conditioning compressor
The PCM receives the following signals via the
CAN databus:
• APP
•CPP
• BPP
• Vehicle speed.
• Refrigerant compressor request
• PAT S

• Torque reduction request (stability assistmodule)
• Cruise control request
The PCM sends the following signals via the CAN
databus:
• Fuel pump relay on/off
• Engine speed
• Warning lights on/off (MIL (malfunction indicator lamp), battery warning lamp)
• PAT S
•ECT
• Air conditioning pressure transducer
• Outside air temperature
With the aid of the input and output signals listed
above, the PCM controls / regulates engine
starting, fuel injection and fuel pressure, ignition,
boost pressure, camshaft adjustment, tank purging,
the radiator fan and the refrigerant compressor.
Speed and TDC recording
The CKP uses the PCM sensor to record engine
speed and detect 1st cylinder TDC (top dead
center). An additional sensor wheel for the CKP sensor is
located on the flywheel. This has 60-2 teeth. The
gaps between the teeth are required for detection
of TDC. The CKP sensor works according to the
induction principle and generates a sinusoidal
signal voltage whose level and frequency are
speed-dependent.
From the frequency of the signal the PCM
calculates the engine speed. Each time the engine
rotates, the double gap in the sensor wheel alters
the sinusoidal oscillation that is generated; this
helps the PCM to detect the TDC position of
cylinder 1.
The signal from the CKP sensor is used to
determine
• the crankshaft position,
• the engine speed,
• the ignition timing,
• the injection timing and
• the adjustment angle of the VVT units.

Knowing and Understanding Customer
Concerns
Knowing and understanding customer concerns is
necessary in order to perform diagnosis.
First of all, ask the customer under which operating
conditions the problem occurs. If possible, try to
reproduce the concern by road testing the vehicle
with the customer.
You should be familiar with the following operating
conditions:
• Engine operating state
– Cold, warm-up phase, or at operatingtemperature
• Ambient temperature – Below 0 °C (32 °F), 0 to 20 °C (32 to 68 °F),or above 20 °C (68 °F)
• Road conditions – Good, poor, or off-road
• Vehicle load status – Unloaded, loaded, or fully loaded
• Transaxle status in manual mode – Upshift, downshift, overrun or acceleration
Testing Possible Causes of Transmission
Control Faults
Before performing a symptom-based diagnosis,
first carry out checks to eliminate various other
potential causes of the fault.
These situations include:
• Battery state of charge
• Defective fuses • Loose or corroded cables or electrical
connectors
• Ground connections to the transmission
• Retrofitted add-on units which are not approved by Ford, such as air conditioning, car telephone,
cruise control
• Unapproved tire sizes
• Incorrect tire size programmed with IDS (Integrated Diagnostic System)
• Engine tuning
IDS Diagnosis
NOTE: Customer concerns relating to the transaxle
can also be caused by engine-related faults.
The transmission control system of the AW55 is
closely linked to the engine management system.
Faults in the engine management system may
affect the transmission control system.
Before repairing the transaxle, it should be ensured
that the fault is not caused by the engine
management system or other non-transaxle
components.
The diagnosis can be performed on the AW55 with
the aid of von IDS.
visual inspection
A thorough visual inspection of the transaxle is
necessary for successful diagnosis.
A visual inspection is made of the following
components:
• Connectors and plug connections
• Ease of operation of the selector lever

"Health and Safety Precautions". For
further information
REFER to: Air Conditioning (A/C) System
Recovery, Evacuation and Charging
(412-00 Climate Control System - General
Information, General Procedures).
Refrigerant circuit check
WARNING: Under certain circumstances,
refrigerant lines and A/C components may
be extremely hot or cold. Exercising care,
touch the refrigerant lines or A/C
components in order to check this. Failure
to follow these instructions may result in
personal injury.
When the A/C system is operating, the following
conditions should apply:
• The refrigerant line from the refrigerant compressor to the condenser must be hot.
• The refrigerant line from the A/C condenser to the fixed orifice tube must be warm, but not so
hot as the refrigerant line mentioned above.
• Determine the difference in temperature upstream and downstream of the A/C condenser
by measuring the temperatures at the refrigerant
lines. The temperature difference should be
more than 20° C, depending on the ambient
temperature. If the temperature difference is
less, check the condenser for contamination or
damage to the fins as well as operation of the
radiator fans.
