System outline
The high pressure injection system is designed to deliver a precise quantity of diesel fuel to the engine at a set
moment.
It is fitted with a BOSCH 128-track computer, type EDC16C36.
The system comprises:
– a priming bulb on the low pressure circuit,
– a diesel filter,
– a high pressure pump with a built-in low pressure pump (transfer pump),
– a high pressure regulator mounted on the pump,
– an injector rail,
– a diesel fuel pressure sensor built into the rail,
– four solenoid injectors,
– a diesel temperature sensor,
– a coolant temperature sensor,
– a cylinder reference sensor,
– an engine speed sensor,
– a turbocharger pressure sensor,
– an accelerator pedal potentiometer,
– an exhaust gas recirculation solenoid valve,
– a recycled gas cooling solenoid valve,
– an atmospheric pressure sensor integrated into the injection computer,
– an air flowmeter fitted with an air temperature sensor,
– a turbocharging pressure limitation solenoid valve,
– a motorised damper valve,
– a particle filter (F9Q816 engine only),
– a particle filter differential pressure sensor (F9Q816 engine only),
– a temperature sensor upstream of the particle filter (F9Q816 engine only),
– a temperature sensor downstream of the particle filter (only on certain F9Q816 engines in VDiag 48),
– a temperature sensor upstream of the turbine (F9Q816 engine only),
– a richness ratio sensor,
– a turbocharger cooling pump.
The common rail direct high pressure injection system works sequentially (based on the petrol engine multipoint
injection).
This injection system reduces operating noise, reduces the volume of pollutant gases and particles and produces
high engine torque at low engine speeds thanks to a pre-injection procedure.
The high pressure pump generates the high pressure and transmits it to the injector rail. The actuator located on the
pump controls the quantity of diesel supplied, according to the demand determined by the computer. The rail
supplies each injector through a steel pipe.

The high pressure pump is supplied at low pressure by an integrated low pressure pump (transfer pump).
It supplies the rail, the pressure of which is controlled by the fuel flow actuator (MPROP) for charging, and for
discharging by the injector valves. This compensates for pressure drops. The flow actuator allows the high pressure
pump to supply the exact quantity of diesel fuel required to maintain the pressure in the rail. This component
minimises the heat generated and improves engine output. In order to discharge the rail using the injector valves,
the valves are controlled by brief electrical pulses which are:
– short enough not to open the injector (passing through the feedback circuit from the injectors),
– long enough to open the valves and discharge the rail.
Some vehicles have a presence sensor mounted in the filter for detecting water in the diesel. If there is water in the
diesel fuel, the orange “Injection and pre-post heating” warning light will come on.
The system can inject diesel fuel into the engine at a pressure of up to 1600 bar. Before each operation, check that
the injector rail is depressurised and that the fuel temperature is not too high.
You must respect the cleanliness guidelines and safety advice specified in this document for any work on the high
pressure injection system.
Removal of the internal parts of the pump and injectors is prohibited. Only the fuel flow regulator/actuator, diesel fuel
temperature sensor and the venturi can be replaced.
For safety reasons, it is strictly prohibited to undo a high pressure pipe union when the engine is running.
It is not possible to remove the pressure sensor from the fuel rail because this may cause circuit contamination
faults. If the pressure sensor is defective, replace the pressure sensor, rail and high pressure pipes associated with
the rail.
Supplying + 12 V directly to any component in the system is prohibited.
Ultrasonic decoking and cleaning are prohibited.
Never start the engine unless the battery is connected correctly.
Disconnect the injection computer when carrying out any welding work on the vehicle. WARNING
The engine must not operate with:
– Diesel fuel containing more than 10% diester,
– petrol, even in tiny quantities.

a. The computer:
Determines the value of injection pressure necessary for the engine to operate correctly and then controls the
pressure regulator.
Checks that the pressure value is correct by analysing the value transmitted by the pressure sensor located on the
rail.
It determines the injection timing required to deliver the right quantity of diesel fuel and the moment when injection
should start. Controls each injector electrically and individually after determining these two values.
The flow injected into the engine is determined by:
– the duration of injector control,
– the rail pressure (regulated by the computer),
– the injector opening and closing speed,
– the needle stroke (determined by a constant for the type of injector),
– the nominal hydraulic flow of the injector (specific to each injector).
The computer manages:
– idling regulation,
– exhaust gas flow reinjection to the inlet (EGR),
– fuel supply check (advance, flow and rail pressure),
– the fan assembly control,
– the air conditioning (cold loop function),
– the cruise control/speed limiter function,
– pre-post heating control,
– indicator lights control via the multiplex network,
– the catalysed particle filter operation (F9Q816 engine only).
