Ignition system DODGE RAM 1999 Service Repair Manual

(IAC) motor.
Battery Temperature Sensor
PCM uses sensor to determine battery temperature and to
control battery charging rate. Temperature data along with battery
voltage data, is used by PCM to vary charging rate. System voltage is
higher at colder temperatures and is gradually reduced at warmer
temperatures.
Battery Voltage
PCM monitors battery voltage to determine fuel injector pulse
width and generator field control. This is done to compensate for
reduced current flow through injector caused by lowered voltage.
Brake Switch
This switch may also be referred to as a brakelight switch.
PCM uses this switch input to maintain idle speed at a preprogrammed
RPM when brakes are applied. If PCM receives an input signal from
brake switch when speed control system is on, PCM will turn speed
control system off.
Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor
On models equipped with a distributor, CMP sensor is made up
of a Hall Effect switch (sync signal generator) and a rotating pulse
ring (shutter) on distributor shaft. See Fig. 1. On Distributorless
Ignition System (DIS), CMP sensor reads slots in cam timing sprocket.
PCM uses this information along with information from Crankshaft
Position (CKP) sensor to determine if fuel injectors and ignition
coils are properly sequenced for correct cylinders.

Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor
CKP sensor detects sets of slots on flywheel/torque converter

drive plate. PCM uses this information to determine fuel injection
sequence, ignition signal and spark timing.
Cruise Control Switch
Cruise control switch provides PCM with 3 separate inputs.
ON/OFF switch input informs PCM that cruise control system has been
activated. SET/COAST switch input informs PCM that set vehicle speed
has been selected, or if depressed will decelerate until switch is
released. RESUME/ACCEL switch input informs PCM that a previously set
speed has been selected or, if depressed, will increase speed until
released. PCM uses these inputs to control cruise control servo.
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
ECT sensor monitors engine coolant temperature. PCM uses ECT
sensor information to adjust air/fuel mixture and idle speed and to
control radiator cooling fans as necessary.
Fuel Level Sensor
PCM supplies a 5-volt reference signal to fuel module in gas
tank. Fuel level sensor sends a signal to PCM indicating fuel level.
PCM monitors this signal to prevent a false misfire signal if fuel
level is less than 15 percent. PCM also sends this signal to fuel
gauge.
Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S)
HO2S produces a small electrical voltage (0-1 volt) when
exposed to heated exhaust gas. HO2S is electrically heated for faster
warm-up. Heating element is powered through Auto Shutdown (ASD) relay.\
HO2S acts like a rich/lean (air/fuel ratio) switch by
monitoring oxygen content in exhaust gas. This information is used by
PCM to adjust air/fuel ratio by adjusting injector pulse width.
HO2S produces low voltage when oxygen content in exhaust gas
is high. When oxygen content in exhaust gas is low, HO2S produces a
higher voltage.
Ignition Switch
Ignition switch sends signal to PCM indicating whether switch
is on, off or cranking (ST). When PCM receives ON signal, it energizes\
ASD relay coil and supplies power to sensors and actuators. When PCM
receives ST signal, it controls fuel injection rate, idle speed,
ignition timing, etc. for optimum cranking conditions.
Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor
IAT sensor measures temperature of incoming intake air. This
information is used by PCM to adjust air/fuel mixture.
Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor
MAP sensor monitors intake manifold vacuum. Sensor transmits
information on manifold vacuum and barometric pressure to PCM. MAP
sensor information is used with information from other sensors to
adjust air/fuel mixture.
Oil Pressure Sensor
Sensor sends a signal to PCM to indicate oil pressure.
Park/Neutral (P/N) Switch (A/T Models)
This switch may also be referred to as a Park/Neutral
Position (PNP) switch. P/N switch is available on vehicles equipped
with A/T only. Switch prevents engine starter from engaging if vehicle
is in any gear except Park or Neutral.
P/N switch input (varied with gear selection) is used to
determine idle speed, fuel injector pulse and ignition timing.

operating. When ground is supplied to injector by PCM, armature and
pintle inside injector move a short distance against spring and open a
small orifice. Since fuel is under high pressure, a fine spray is
developed.
Modes Of Operation
As input signals to PCM change, PCM adjusts its response to
output devices. Modes of operation come in 2 types, open loop and
closed loop. In open loop mode, PCM is not using input from HO2S and
is responding to preset programming to determine injector pulse width
and ignition timing. In closed loop mode, PCM adjusts ignition timing
and uses input from HO2S to fine tune injector pulse width.
The following inputs may be used to determine PCM mode:
* A/C Control Positions
* A/C Switch
* Battery Voltage
* Brake Switch
* Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor
* Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor
* Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor
* Engine Speed (RPM)
* Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S)
* Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor
* Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor
* Park/Neutral (P/N) Switch
* Starter Relay
* Throttle Position (TP) Sensor
* Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS)
From these inputs, PCM determines which mode vehicle is in
and responds appropriately. Not all inputs are used in all modes or by
all models. Modes of operation are:
* Ignition Switch On (Engine Not Running) - This is an open
loop mode. PCM pre-positions IAC motor based on ECT sensor
input. PCM determines atmospheric pressure from MAP sensor
and determines basic fuel strategy. PCM modifies fuel
strategy according to IAT sensor, ECT sensor and TP sensor
inputs. PCM activates ASD relay, which in turn activates fuel
pump for only 2 seconds unless engine is cranked. PCM also
energizes HO2S heater element for approximately 2 seconds
unless engine is cranked.
* Engine Start-Up - This is an open loop mode. When starter is
engaged, PCM receives input from battery voltage, ignition
switch, CKP sensor, CMP sensor, ECT sensor, IAT sensor, MAP
sensor and TP sensor. Based on these inputs, voltage is
applied to fuel injectors with PCM controlling injection
sequence, rate, and pulse width. PCM provides ground for
injectors to fire in proper order.
PCM determines proper ignition timing according to input
received from CKP sensor. If PCM does not receive CKP sensor signal
within 3 seconds after engine begins cranking, fuel injection system
is shut down and a Diagnostic Trouble Code (FTC) is set in PCM memory.\
* Engine Warm-Up - This is an open loop mode. PCM determines
injector pulse width using input information from battery
voltage, CKP sensor, CMP sensor, ECT sensor, IAT sensor, MAP
sensor and TP sensor. PCM also monitors A/C request and P/N
switch (A/T only) for fuel calculation. PCM controls engine
idle speed through IAC motor. PCM controls ignition timing
based on CKP sensor input.

various switch input operations to adjust IAC motor to obtain optimum
idle conditions. Deceleration stall is prevented by increasing airflow
when throttle is closed suddenly.
IGNITION SYSTEM
NOTE: Pickup equipped with 8.0L engine uses Distributorless
Ignition system (DIS). All other models use a Hall Effect
ignition system.
The PCM completely controls ignition system. During
crank/start mode, PCM will set a fixed amount of spark advance for an
efficient engine start. Amount of spark advance or retard is
determined by inputs that PCM receives from ECT sensor, engine vacuum
and engine RPM. During engine operation, PCM can supply an infinite
number of advance curves to ensure proper engine operation.
DISTRIBUTORLESS IGNITION SYSTEM (DIS)
DIS eliminates mechanical ignition components that can wear
out. PCM has complete ignition control and uses a coil pack, CMP
sensor and CKP sensor to control ignition timing. CMP sensor reads
slots in cam timing sprocket. PCM uses this information along with
information from CKP sensor to determine if fuel injectors and
ignition coils are properly sequenced for correct cylinders.
Basic timing is determined by CKP sensor position and is not
adjustable. One complete engine revolution may be required for PCM to
determine crankshaft position during cranking.
Molded ignition coils are used. Each coil fires 2 paired
spark plugs at the same time. One cylinder is on compression stroke
and other cylinder is on exhaust stroke.
HALL EFFECT IGNITION SYSTEM
This system is equipped with a Hall Effect distributor. See
Fig. 1 . Shutter(s) attached to distributor shaft rotate through
distributor Hall Effect switch, also referred to as a CMP sensor,
which contains a distributor pick-up (a Hall Effect device and
magnet). As shutter blade(s) pass through pick-up, magnetic field is
interrupted and voltage is toggled between high and low. PCM uses this
cylinder position data from CMP sensor, along with engine speed (RPM)
and CKP sensor data, to control ignition timing and injector pulse
width to maintain optimum driveability.
EMISSION SYSTEMS
Vehicles are equipped with different combinations of emission
system components. Not all components are used on all models. To
determine component usage on a specific model, see EMISSION
APPLICATIONS - TRUCKS article.
AIR INJECTION SYSTEM
This system adds a controlled amount of air to exhaust gases,
through air relief valve and check valves, to assist oxidation of
hydrocarbons and carbon monoxide in exhaust stream. Air is injected at
catalytic converters.
CRANKCASE VENTILATION (CCV) SYSTEM
CCV system performs same function as a conventional Positive

Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) system, but does not use a vacuum
controlled valve. See POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION (PCV).
EVAPORATIVE (EVAP) EMISSIONS SYSTEM
This system stores fuel vapors from fuel tank, preventing
vapors from reaching the atmosphere. As fuel evaporates inside fuel
tank, vapors are routed through vent hoses to charcoal canister where
they are stored until engine is started.
Evaporative Canister Purge Control Solenoid (EVAP-CPCS)
Charcoal canister purging is controlled by PCM through an
EVAP-CPCS. During engine warm-up and for a short period after hot
restarts, PCM energizes EVAP-CPCS, interrupting engine vacuum signal
to charcoal canister.
After engine reaches a predetermined operating temperature
and PCM internal timer has expired, PCM will de-energize EVAP-CPCS,
allowing engine vacuum to purge charcoal canister. EVAP-CPCS will also
be de-energized during certain idle conditions so PCM can update fuel
delivery calibration.
POSITIVE CRANKCASE VENTILATION (PCV)
PCV system uses a vacuum operated valve. A closed engine
crankcase breather/filter, with a hose connecting it to air filter
housing, provides source of air for system. Crankcase blow-by gases
are removed from crankcase through PCV valve with manifold vacuum.
These gases are introduced into incoming air/fuel mixture and become
part of the calibrated mixture.
A non-vacuum operated Crankcase Ventilation (CCV) system is
used on some engines, see CRANKCASE VENTILATION (CCV) SYSTEM.
SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM
The PCM monitors several different circuits of engine control
system. If a problem is sensed with a monitored circuit, PCM will
store a Diagnostic Trouble Code (FTC) to aid technician in diagnosis
of system. The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL), or a scan tool can
be used to read DTCs. For additional information, see SELF-DIAGNOSTICS
- JEEP, TRUCKS & RWD VANS article.
MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) comes on and remains on for\
3 seconds as a bulb test each time ignition switch is turned to ON
position. If PCM receives an incorrect signal or receives no signal
from battery voltage input, charging system, ECT sensor, MAP sensor or
TP sensor, MIL will come on. MIL will also come on if certain
emission-related faults exist. This warns driver that PCM is in limp-
in mode and immediate repairs are necessary. See LIMP-IN MODE under
MISCELLANEOUS CONTROLS. MIL can also be used to display Diagnostic
Trouble Codes (DTCs). For additional information, see SELF-DIAGNOSTICS\
- JEEP, TRUCKS & RWD VANS article.
SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS INTERFACE (SCI)
SCI circuit is used by PCM to send data to and receive data
and sensor activation signals from scan tool. Scan tool uses signals
sent on SCI to display fault messages or Diagnostic Trouble Codes
(DTCs), sensor voltages and device states (On/Off). Scan tool uses S\
CI
to send solenoid and switch activation commands to PCM so that devices
and circuits can be tested. SCI is also used to write SRI mileage to

PCM.
MISCELLANEOUS CONTROLS
NOTE: Although not strictly considered part of engine performance
system, some controlled devices can adversely affect
driveability if they malfunction.
A/C CLUTCH RELAY
A/C clutch relay is controlled by PCM. When A/C or Defrost
mode is selected and PCM receives A/C request signal from evaporator
switch, PCM will cycle clutch on and off through A/C clutch relay.
When this relay is energized during engine operation, PCM will
determine correct engine idle speed through IAC motor.
When PCM senses low idle speed or wide open throttle through
TP sensor, PCM will de-energize A/C clutch relay, preventing A/C
operation.
AUTO SHUTDOWN (ASD) RELAY & FUEL PUMP RELAY
ASD relay and electric fuel pump relay are energized when
ignition is on. These relays are controlled through PCM by switching a
common ground circuit on and off. Following components are controlled
by ASD and fuel pump relays:
* Electric Fuel Pump
* Fuel Injectors
* Generator Field Winding
* Ignition Coil(s)
* HO2S Heating Element
When ignition switch is turned to RUN position, PCM energizes
ASD relay and electric fuel pump relay which powers these components.
If PCM does not receive a CMP and CKP sensor signal within one second
of engine cranking (start-up), PCM will turn ground circuit off and
de-energize ASD relay.
GENERATOR
Powertrain Control Module (PCM) regulates charging system
voltage.
LIMP-IN MODE
Limp-in mode is the attempt by PCM to compensate for failure
of certain components by substituting information from other sources
so that vehicle can still be operated. If PCM senses incorrect data or
no data at all from MAP sensor, TP sensor, ECT sensor or battery
voltage, system is placed into limp-in mode and Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) on instrument panel comes on.
If faulty sensor comes back on line, PCM will resume closed
loop operation. On some vehicles, MIL will remain on until ignition is
shut off and vehicle is restarted. To prevent damage to catalytic
converter, vehicle should NOT be driven for extended periods in limp-
in mode.
RADIATOR FAN RELAY
Electric cooling fan is used only on Dakota. Using
information supplied by A/C signal (if equipped), ECT sensor, and VSS,\
