ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
18-2-50 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
In the case of a VSS failure on vehicles with automatic gearboxes, the ECM applies default values derived from the
EAT ECU. There are no default values for manual gearbox vehicles.
The VSS can fail in the following ways:
lWiring short circuit to vehicle supply.
lWiring short circuit to vehicle earth.
lWiring open circuit.
In the event of a VSS failure, any of the following symptoms may be observed:
lMIL illuminated after 2 driving cycles (NAS only).
lVehicle speed limiting disabled (manual transmission vehicles only).
lSLABS/HDC warning lamp on and audible warning.
Should a malfunction of the component occur the following fault codes may be evident and can be retrieved by
TestBook:
Rough road signal
When the vehicle travels across rough terrain, or on rough roads instability becomes evident in the drive train. The
ECM could interpret these vibrations as a 'false misfire'. To counteract this 'false misfire' the SLABS ECU generates
a rough road signal, sends it to the ECM so that the ECM can suspend misfire detection for as long as the vehicle is
travelling on the 'rough road'.
Function
Input for the rough road signal is measured via pin 34 of connector C0637 of the ECM. The SLABS ECU generates
a PWM signal that varies in accordance with changing road conditions. The rough road PWM signal operates at a
frequency of 2.33 Hz
± 10%. The significance of changes in the PWM signal are shown in the following table:
The rough road signal can fail in the following ways:
lHarness or connector damage
lSLABS failure — wheel speed sensor
A rough road signal failure may be evident from the following:
lHDC / ABS warning light on

Drive cycle C:
1Switch ignition on for 30 seconds.
2Ensure engine coolant temperature is less than 60
°C (140°F).
3Start the engine and allow to idle for 2 minutes.
4Perform 2 light accelerations (0 to 35 mph (0 to 60 km/h) with light pedal pressure).
5Perform 2 medium accelerations (0 to 45 mph (0 to 70 km/h) with moderate pedal pressure).

7Cruise at 60 mph (100 km/h) for 8 minutes.
8Cruise at 50 mph (80 km/h) for 3 minutes.
9Allow engine to idle for 3 minutes.
10Connect TestBook and with the engine still running, check for fault codes.
NOTE: The following areas have an associated readiness test which must be flagged as complete, before a problem
resolution can be verified:
lcatalytic converter fault;
lEvaporative loss system fault;
lHO
2 sensor fault;
lHO
2 sensor heater fault.
When carrying out a drive cycle C to determine a fault in any of the above areas, select the readiness test icon to
verify that the test has been flagged as complete.

Drive cycle D:
1Switch ignition on for 30 seconds.
2Ensure engine coolant temperature is less than 35
°C (95°F).

4Perform 2 light accelerations (0 to 35 mph (0 to 60 km/h) with light pedal pressure).
5Perform 2 medium accelerations (0 to 45 mph (0 to 70 km/h) with moderate pedal pressure).
6Perform 2 hard accelerations (0 to 55 mph (0 to 90 km/h) with heavy pedal pressure).
7Cruise at 60 mph (100 km/h) for 5 minutes.
8Cruise at 50 mph (80 km/h) for 5 minutes.
9Cruise at 35 mph (60 km/h) for 5 minutes.
10Allow engine to idle for 2 minutes.
11Connect TestBook and check for fault codes.

Drive cycle E:
1Ensure fuel tank is at least a quarter full.
2Carry out Drive Cycle A.
