AUTO SHUT DOWN RELAY
DESCRIPTION - PCM OUTPUT
The 5±pin, 12±volt, Automatic Shutdown (ASD)
relay is located in the Power Distribution Center
(PDC). Refer to label on PDC cover for relay location.
OPERATION
OPERATION - PCM OUTPUT
The ASD relay supplies battery voltage (12+ volts)
to the fuel injectors and ignition coil(s). With certain
emissions packages it also supplies 12±volts to the
oxygen sensor heating elements.
The ground circuit for the coil within the ASD
relay is controlled by the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM). The PCM operates the ASD relay by switch-
ing its ground circuit on and off.

REMOVAL
REMOVAL - 4.0L
The Camshaft Position Sensor (CMP) on the 4.0L
6±cylinder engine is bolted to the top of the oil pump
drive shaft assembly (Fig. 6). The sensor and drive
shaft assembly is located on the right side of the
engine near the oil filter (Fig. 7).
The rotational position of oil pump drive deter-
mines fuel synchronization only. It does not deter-
mine ignition timing.
NOTE: Do not attempt to rotate the oil pump drive
to modify ignition timing.
Two different proceduresare used for removal
and installation. The first procedure will detail
removal and installation of the sensor only. The sec-
ond procedure will detail removal and installation of
the sensor and oil pump drive shaft assembly. The
second procedure is to be used if the engine has been
disassembled.
An internal oil seal is used in the drive shaft hous-
ing that prevents engine oil at the bottom of the sen-
sor. The seal is not serviceable.
