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.

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.

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.

In an ignition system with coil-on-plug ignition coils,
each cylinder is actuated individually and only once
per cycle (working stroke). The coil-on-plug ignition
coils are mounted directly on the spark plugs,
therefore no ignition cables are required between
the ignition coils and the spark plugs.
Each individual ignition coil is actuated on the
low-voltage side by the PCM. The power
end-stages are incorporated into the coil-on-plug
ignition coils. Only the actuating current for these
power end-stages is controlled by the PCM.
Fuel pressure/fuel temperature sensor
E73531
The fuel pressure/fuel temperature sensor is a
combination of two sensors, one for the fuel
absolute pressure and one for the fuel temperature.
The sensors register the fuel values in the fuel
injection supply manifold. The sensor is supplied
with a 5V voltage by the PCM.
The fuel pressure sensor is a piezoresistor and
works using an analog signal. The change in output
voltage mirrors the change in pressure in the fuel
rail. If the pressure is low, the output voltage is also
low.
The fuel temperature sensor is an NTC resistor.
When the fuel pressure/fuel temperature sensor is
disconnected, the resistance of the fuel
temperature sensor between connections 1 and 2
of the sensor can be measured.

Power (battery voltage) is supplied via the
Powertrain Control Module relay in the BJB. The
solenoid coil resistance is around 23 ohms at 20°
C.
