< PRECAUTION >[VK56VD]
PRECAUTIONS

When measuring ECM signals with a circuit tester, never allow
the two tester probes to contact.
Accidental contact of probes will cause a short circuit and
damage the ECM power transistor.
 B1 indicates bank 1, B2 indicat es bank 2 as shown in the fig-
ure.
 Never operate fuel pump when there is no fuel in lines.
 Tighten fuel hose clamps to the specified torque.
 Never depress accelerator pedal when starting.
 Immediately after starting, never rev up engine unnecessarily.
 Never rev up engine just prior to shutdown.

The sensor detects a fuel level in the fuel tank and tr
ansmits a signal to the combination meter. The combina-
tion meter sends the fuel level sensor signal to the ECM via the CAN communication line.
It consists of two parts, one is mechanical float and the ot her is variable resistor. Fuel level sensor output volt-
age changes depending on the movement of the fuel mechanical float.
Fuel Pump Control ModuleINFOID:0000000006217674
The fuel pump control module (FPCM) controls the discharging vol-
ume of the fuel pump by transmitt ing the FPCM control signals (Low/
Mid/High) depending on driving conditions.
Fuel Rail Pressure SensorINFOID:0000000006217675
The fuel rail pressure (FRP) sensor is placed to the fuel rail and
measures fuel pressure in the fuel rail. The sensor transmits voltage
signal to the ECM. As the pressure increases, the voltage rises. The
ECM controls the fuel pressure in the fuel rail by operating high pres-
sure fuel pump. The ECM uses the signal from fuel rail pressure sen-
sor as a feedback signal.
Fuel Tank Temperature SensorINFOID:0000000006217676
The fuel tank temperature sensor is used to detect the fuel tempera-
ture inside the fuel tank. The sensor modifies a voltage signal from
the ECM. The modified signal returns to the ECM as the fuel temper-
ature input. The sensor uses a ther mistor which is sensitive to the
change in temperature. The electrical resistance of the thermistor
decreases as temperature increases.

*: These data are reference values and are measured between ECM terminals.

< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION >[VK56VD]
COMPONENT PARTS
The heated oxygen sensor 2, after three way catalyst (manifold),
monitors the oxygen level in the exhaust gas on each bank.
Even if switching characteristics of
the air fuel ratio (A/F) sensor 1
are shifted, the air fuel ratio is c ontrolled to stoichiometric, by the sig-
nal from the heated oxygen sensor 2.
This sensor is made of ceramic zirconia. The zirconia generates volt-
age from approximately 1 V in richer conditions to 0 V in leaner con-
ditions.
Under normal conditions the heated ox ygen sensor 2 is not used for
engine control operation.
HEATED OXYGEN SENSOR 2 HEATER
Heated oxygen sensor 2 heater is integrated in the sensor.
The ECM performs ON/OFF control of the heated oxy gen sensor 2 heater corresponding to the engine speed,
amount of intake air and engine coolant temperature.
High Pressure Fuel PumpINFOID:0000000006217678
The high pressure fuel pump is installed at the front of the engine bank 2 side and activated by the camshaft.
ECM controls the high pressure fuel pump control sol enoid valve built into the high pressure fuel pump and
adjusts the amount of discharge by changing the suction timing of the low pressure fuel.
Operating Description

< SYSTEM DESCRIPTION >[VK56VD]
COMPONENT PARTS
Knock Sensor
INFOID:0000000006217683
The knock sensor is attached to t he cylinder block. It senses engine
knocking using a piezoelectric element. A knocking vibration from
the cylinder block is sensed as vibrational pressure. This pressure is
converted into a voltage signal and sent to the ECM.
Low Fuel Pressure SensorINFOID:0000000006217684
The low fuel pressure sensor is installed to low fuel pressure piping
and measures the low fuel pressu re. The sensor transmits voltage
signal to the ECM. As the pressure increases, the voltage rises.
Low Pressure Fuel PumpINFOID:0000000006217685
The low pressure fuel pump is integrated with a fuel pressure regula-
tor and a fuel filter. This pump is build into the fuel tank.
ECM controls the low pressure fuel pump via FPCM.
Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL)INFOID:0000000006217686
The Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) is located on the combination
meter.
The MIL will illuminate when the ignition switch is turned ON without
the engine running. This is a bulb check.
When the engine is started, the MIL should turn off. If the MIL
remains illuminated, the on board diagnostic system has detected an
engine system malfunction.
For details, refer to EC-51, "
Diagnosis Description".
