Engine JAGUAR XFR 2010 1.G Workshop Manual

When the ECM receives a crank request, it energizes the starter relay in the EJB (engine junction box). The energized starter relay supplies 12 V power (fed via the 250 A megafuse in the BJB (battery junction box)) to energize the pull-in coil of the
starter solenoid. Once activated, the pull-in coil engages the solenoid plunger, which engages the pinion with the ring gear.
The plunger then closes the solenoid circuit, feeding power from the 400 A megafuse in the BJB to the starter motor.

CAUTION: Diagnosis by substitution from a donor vehicle is NOT acceptable. Substitution of control modules does not
guarantee confirmation of a fault and may also cause additional faults in the vehicle being checked and/or the donor vehicle.


NOTE: Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic routines involving pinpoint tests.

1. Verify the customer concern.
2. Visually inspect for obvious signs of mechanical and electrical damage.

3. If an obvious cause for an observed or reported concern is found, correct the cause (if possible) before proceeding to
the next step.
4. If the cause is not visually evident, check for Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's) and refer to the DTC Index.

5. Check DDW for open campaigns. Refer to the corresponding bulletins and SSM's which may be valid for the specific
customer complaint and carry out the recommendations as needed.
CAUTIONS:


Diagnosis by substitution from a donor vehicle is NOT acceptable. Substitution of control modules does not guarantee
confirmation of a fault, and may also cause additional faults in the vehicle being tested and/or the donor vehicle


When probing connectors to take measurements in the course of the pinpoint tests, use the adaptor kit, part number
3548-1358-00
NOTES:


If the control module or a component is suspect and the vehicle remains under manufacturer warranty, refer to the
warranty policy and procedures manual (section B1.2), or determine if any prior approval programme is in operation, prior to
the installation of a new module/component.


Generic scan tools may not read the codes listed, or may read only 5-digit codes. Match the 5 digits from the scan tool to
the first 5 digits of the 7-digit code listed to identify the fault (the last 2 digits give extra information read by the
manufacturer-approved diagnostic system)


When performing voltage or resistance tests, always use a digital multimeter accurate to three decimal places and with a
current calibration certificate. When testing resistance, always take the resistance of the digital multimeter leads into account


Check and rectify basic faults before beginning diagnostic routines involving pinpoint tests


Inspect connectors for signs of water ingress, and pins for damage and/or corrosion


If diagnostic trouble codes are recorded and, after performing the pinpoint tests, a fault is not present, an intermittent
concern may be the cause. Always check for loose connections and corroded terminals

Description and Operation

OVERVIEW

The engine ignition system is a coil-on-plug, single spark system controlled by the ECM (engine control module). An iridium
tipped spark plug is installed in each combustion chamber, between the inlet and exhaust valves, and an ignition coil is
installed on each spark plug. A RFI (radio frequency interference) suppressor is connected to the power feed to the ignition
coils.

GENERAL System Operation

The ignition coils are supplied with electrical power from the battery via a 250 A megafuse in the BJB (battery junction box)
and the ignition relay in the EJB (engine junction box). The control signal for the ignition relay is supplied by the CJB (central
junction box).

The ECM (engine control module) sends a separate signal to each ignition coil to trigger the power stage switching. The ECM calculates the dwell time from the battery voltage and engine speed, to ensure a constant energy level is produced in the
secondary coil each time the power stage is switched. This ensures sufficient spark energy is available without excessive
primary current flow, which avoids overheating and damage to the ignition coils.
The ECM calculates the ignition timing for individual cylinders from: Engine speed
Camshaft position
Engine load
Engine temperature
The knock control function
The shift control function
The idle speed control function.



IGNITION COILS Component Description



The ignition coils are installed in the cylinder head covers, under the NVH (noise, vibration and harshness) covers. Each
ignition coil locates on a spark plug and is secured to the related cylinder head cover with a single screw. Each ignition coil
incorporates a three pin electrical connector for connection to the engine harness.

Each ignition coil contains a primary and a secondary winding. The primary winding receives electrical power from the ignition
relay in the power distribution box. A power stage in the primary winding allows the ECM to interrupt the power supply, to induce a voltage in the secondary winding and thus the spark plug. A diode in the ground side of the secondary winding
reduces any undesirable switch-on voltage, to prevent misfiring into the intake manifold. The power stage limits the maximum
voltage and current in the primary winding, to protect the power stage and limit the voltage in the secondary winding. www.JagDocs.com
