A. Overview of cooling fan and A/C compressor
The cooling system maintains the engine temperature at an efficient level during all engine operating
conditions. The water pump draws the coolant from the radiator. The coolant then circulates through
water jackets in the engine block, the intake manifold, and the cylinder head. When the coolant
reaches the operating temperature of the thermostat, the thermostat opens. The coolant then goes
back to the radiator where it cools. The heat from automatic transmission is also cooled down through
the radiator by circulating the oil through the oil pump. ECU controls the electric cooling fans with three
cooling fan relays to improve the engine torque and air conditioning performance.
For detailed information, refer to Chapter "Air Conditioning System".

PTC Fuse and Relay
(13) PTC heater control
A. Overview
The supplementary electrical heater is installed in DI engine equipped vehicle as a basic equipment.
The PTC system is operated according to two temperature values measured at the coolant temperature
sensor and HFM sensor. This device is mounted in the heater air outlet and increase the temperature of
air to the passenger compartment. Because PTC system is heated by electrical power, high capacity
alternator is required. PTC does not operate during engine cranking, while the battery voltage is lower
than 11 V or during preheating process of glow plugs.

C. PTC operation process
The PTC operating condition (ON) is controlled in two steps.
Basically, the engine ECU controls the relay to supply the power to PTC according to the coolant
temperature sensor and ambient temperature sensor.
1st step (initial operation of PTC) ▶
Coolant temperature < 15°C: PTC ON
Coolant temperature ≥ 15°C: PTC ON after satisfying the conditions in 2nd step -
-
2nd step (coolant temperature ≥ 15°C) ▶
Coolant temperature ≤ 65°C and intake air temperature ≤ -10°C: PTC ON
Coolant temperature < 60~65°C and intake air temperature < -10~0°C: PTC ON
Coolant temperature ≤ 60°C and intake air temperature ≤ 0~5°C: PTC ON -

(15) CDPF control
A. Overview
As the solution for environmental regulations and PM Particle Material) of diesel engine, the low
emission vehicle is getting popular. This vehicle is equipped with an extra filter to collect the soot and
burn it again so that the amount of PM in the exhaust gas passed through the DOC (Diesel Oxidation
Catalyst) is reduced. The CDPF (Catalyst & Diesel Particulate Filter) is an integrated filter including
DOC (Diesel Oxidation Catalyst) and DPF (Diesel Particulate Filter).
For details, refer to Chapter "CDPF".

D. Operation process
When the differential pressure sensor detects the pressure difference between the front and the rear
side of CDPF, the sensor sends signal indicating the soot is accumulated and the post injection is
performed to raise the temperature of exhaust gas. The amount of fuel injected is determined
according to the temperature of exhaust gas detected by the rear temperature sensor. If the
tem
perature is below 600°C, the amount of fuel injected is increased to raise the temperature. If
the tem
perature is over 600°C, the amount of fuel injected is decreased or not controlled. When
the engine is running in low load range, the amount of post injection and the amount of intake air are
controlled. It is to raise the temperature by increasing the amount of fuel while decreasing the amount
of intake air.

3. IGNITION SYSTEM OPERATION
This ignition system does not use a conventional distributor and coil. It uses a crankshaft position
sensor input to the Engine Control Module (ECM).
The ECM then determines Electronic Spark Timing (EST) and triggers the electronic ignition system
ignition coil.
This type of distributor less ignition system uses a "waste spark" method of spark distribution. Each
cylinder is paired with the cylinder that is opposite it (2.3L DOHC: 2 - 3 or 1 - 4, 3.2L DOHC: 1 - 6 or 2 -
5 or 3 - 4).
The spark occurs simultaneously in the cylinder coming up on the compression stroke and in the
cylinder coming up on the exhaust stroke.
The cylinder on the exhaust stroke requires very little of the available energy to fire the spark plug.
The remaining energy is available to the spark plug in the cylinder on the compression stroke. These
systems use the EST signal from the ECM to control the EST.
The ECM uses the following information: Engine load (mass air flow sensor, manifold air pressure
sensor).
Engine coolant temperature.
Intake air temperature.
Crankshaft position.
Engine speed (rpm).
1) Electronic Ignition System Ignition Coil
The Electronic Ignition (EI) system ignition coil is located on the cylinder head cover.
The double ended coils receive the signal for the ECM which controls the spark advance. Each
EI system ignition coil provides the high voltage to two spark plugs simultaneously;
3.2L DOHC
T1/1: cylinder 2 and 5
T1/2: cylinder 3 and 4
T1/3: cylinder 1 and 6
The EI system ignition coil is not serviceable and must be replaced as an assembly.
