The crankshaft position sensor is located in the
transaxle housing, above the vehicle speed sensor
(Fig. 10). The bottom of the sensor is positioned next
to the drive plate.The distance between the bot-
tom of sensor and the drive plate is critical to
the operation of the system. When servicing the
crankshaft position sensor, refer to the appro-
priate Multi-Port Fuel Injection Service Proce-
dures section in this Group.
2.4L
The second crankshaft counterweight has
machined into it two sets of four timing reference
notches and a 60 degree signature notch (Fig. 11).
From the crankshaft position sensor input the PCM
determines engine speed and crankshaft angle (posi-
tion).
The notches generate pulses from high to low in
the crankshaft position sensor output voltage. When
a metal portion of the counterweight aligns with the
crankshaft position sensor, the sensor output voltagegoes low (less than 0.3 volts). When a notch aligns
with the sensor, voltage spikes high (5.0 volts). As a
group of notches pass under the sensor, the output
voltage switches from low (metal) to high (notch)
then back to low.
If available, an oscilloscope can display the square
wave patterns of each voltage pulse. From the width
of the output voltage pulses, the PCM calculates
engine speed. The width of the pulses represent the
amount of time the output voltage stays high before
switching back to low. The period of time the sensor
output voltage stays high before switching back to
low is referred to as pulse width. The faster the
engine is operating, the smaller the pulse width on
the oscilloscope.
By counting the pulses and referencing the pulse
from the 60 degree signature notch, the PCM calcu-
lates crankshaft angle (position). In each group of
timing reference notches, the first notch represents
69 degrees before top dead center (BTDC). The sec-
ond notch represents 49 degrees BTDC. The third
notch represents 29 degrees. The last notch in each
set represents 9 degrees before top dead center
(TDC).
The timing reference notches are machined to a
uniform width representing 13.6 degrees of crank-
shaft rotation. From the voltage pulse width the
PCM tells the difference between the timing refer-
ence notches and the 60 degree signature notch. The
60 degree signature notch produces a longer pulse
width than the smaller timing reference notches. If
the camshaft position sensor input switches from
high to low when the 60 degree signature notch
passes under the crankshaft position sensor, the
PCM knows cylinder number one is the next cylinder
at TDC.
The crankshaft position sensor mounts to the
engine block behind the generator, just above the oil
filter (Fig. 12).
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSORÐPCM
INPUT
The engine coolant temperature sensor is a vari-
able resistor with a range of -40ÉC to 129ÉC (-40ÉF to
265ÉF).
The engine coolant temperature sensor provides an
input voltage to the PCM. As coolant temperature
varies, the sensor resistance changes resulting in a
different input voltage to the PCM.
When the engine is cold, the PCM will demand
slightly richer air/fuel mixtures and higher idle
speeds until normal operating temperatures are
reached.
The engine coolant sensor is also used for cooling
fan control.

ohm, repair the wire harness as necessary.
THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR
To perform a complete test of the this sensor and
its circuitry, refer to the DRB scan tool and appropri-
ate Powertrain Diagnostics Procedures manual. To
test the throttle position sensor only, refer to the fol-
lowing:
The Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) can be tested
with a digital voltmeter (DVM). The center terminal
of the sensor is the output terminal. One of the other
terminals is a 5 volt supply and the remaining ter-
minal is ground.
Connect the DVM between the center and sensor
ground terminal. Refer to Group 8W - Wiring Dia-
grams for correct pinout.
With the ignition switch in the ON position, check
the output voltage at the center terminal wire of the
connector. Check the output voltage at idle and at
Wide-Open-Throttle (WOT). At idle, TPS output volt-
age should be approximately 0.38 volts to 1.2 volts.
At wide open throttle, TPS output voltage should be
approximately 3.1 volts to 4.4 volts. The output volt-
age should gradually increase as the throttle plate
moves slowly from idle to WOT.
Check for spread terminals at the sensor and PCM
connections before replacing the TPS.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING (Continued)
Page 1413 of 1938
BOOST PRESSURE SENSOR
The Boost Pressure Sensor is mounted to the top of
the intake manifold. (Fig. 2) It is a sensor that mea-
sures both manifold vacuum and turbo boost, and it
also contains an integrated intake air temperature
sensor. The Boost Pressure Sensor takes the place of
the Mass Air Flow (MAF). In the Intake Air Temper-
ature Sensor component, there is a ceramic element
that changes its resistance based on temperature.
The ceramic element is part of an electronic circuit
connected to the PCM, and has a voltage applied to
it. The ceramic element is exposed to the air inside
the intake. This air has a cooling effect on the
ceramic element, and its resistance changes. This
causes the voltage flowing through the intake air
temperature circuit to vary. The voltage signal pro-
duced by the Intake Air Temperature Sensor changes
inversely to the temperature, and is measured by the
PCM. As a general rule, when the temperature of the
air in the intake is high, the voltage signal produced
by the Intake Air Temperature Sensor is low. The
component of the Boost Pressure Sensor that mea-
sures manifold vacuum and turbo boost produces a
voltage signal that is proportional to the pressure in
the inake manifold. When the intake manifold pres-
sure is low, the voltage is low, and when the pressure
is high, the voltage is high. The PCM uses the volt-
age signals from the Boost Pressure Sensor, and the
Intake Air Temperature Sensor to determine the
amount of air flowing through the intake manifold.
VEHICLE THEFT ALARM
The PCM can learn if the vehicle has a Vehicle
Theft Alarm (VTA) system. Once it detects the vehi-
cle having VTA,the controller can ONLY BE
USED ON VEHICLES WITH VTA.If the PCM is put it on a vehicle without VTA the
Glow Plug Lamp will start to blink and the vehicle
will not start.
The PCM cannot be flashed to remove the VTA.
BATTERY VOLTAGEÐPCM INPUT
The battery voltage input provides power to the
PCM. It also informs the PCM what voltage level is
being supplied by the generator once the vehicle is
running.
The battery input also provides the voltage that is
needed to keep the PCM memory alive. The memory
stores Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) messages.
Trouble codes will still be stored even if the battary
voltage is lost.
SENSOR RETURNÐPCM INPUT (ANALOG
GROUND)
Sensor Return provides a low noise Analog ground
reference for all system sensors.
SIGNAL GROUNDÐPCM INPUT
Signal ground provides a low noise ground to the
data link connector.
IGNITION CIRCUIT SENSEÐPCM INPUT
The ignition circuit sense input signals the PCM
that the ignition (key) switch has been turned to the
ON position. This signal initiates the glow plug con-
trol routine to begin the ªpre±heatº cycle.
START SIGNALÐPCM INPUT
This input tells the PCM that the engine starter is
being operated. This in turn will start the glow plug
ªpost±heatº cycle.
POWER GROUND
Provides a common ground for power devices (sole-
noid and relay devices).
NEEDLE MOVEMENT OR INSTRUMENTED FIRST
INJECTORÐPCM INPUT
This input from the PCM supplies a constant 30
mA electrical current source for the first injector sen-
sor. It will vary the voltage to this sensor when it
senses a mechanical movement within the injector
needle (pintle) of the number±1 cylinder fuel injector.
When this voltage has been determined by the PCM,
it will then control an output to the fuel timing sole-
noid (the fuel timing solenoid is located on the fuel
injection pump). Also refer to Fuel Injection Pump for
additional information.
The first injector sensor is a magnetic (inductive)
type.
