MFI
3
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Tune select resistor -
To suit individual market requirements a tune select
resistor is connected across pins 5 and 27 of the
ECM.
It is located adjacent to the ECM, and strapped to the
MFI cable assembly. The value of the resistor is
dependent on the market application:
Red wire, 180 ohms, Australia, Rest of world.
Green wire, 470 Ohms, UK and Europe - non catalyst.
Yellow wire 910 Ohms, Saudi non catalyst.
White wire, 3K9 Ohms, European catalyst
Condenser fans
It should be noted that under high coolant
temperatures, when the engine is switched off, the
condenser fans will be activated and will run for
approximately ten minutes.Vehicle speed sensor
The vehicle speed sensor is located on the side of the
Transfer box adjacent to the parking brake. The
sensor provides road speed data to the ECM. The
ECM in turn detects vehicle movement from the road
speed input and ensures that idle air control mode is
disengaged. Should the vehicle speed sensor fail in
service the ECM idle air control would become erratic.
The sensor also provides road speed data to the
electric speedometer and cruise control ECU.
Inertia fuel shutoff switch
The inertia fuel shutoff switch is a mechanically
operated switch, located on the bulkhead adjacent to
the washer reservoir under bonnet [hood].
The switch is normally closed and is in line with the
fuel pump. In the event of a sudden impact the switch
opens, and disconnects the electrical feed to the fuel
pump. The switch is reset by pressing down the
button.
WARNING: Check the integrity of the fuel
system before the inertia switch is reset.
Relay modules
The two multiport fuel injection relays are located in
the RH footwell area behind the 'A' post panel. The
main relay module is energized via the ECM when the
ignition is switched on and supplies current to the
multiport fuel injection system. The fuel pump relay
module is energized by the ECM which in turn
operates the fuel pump to pressurize the fuel system.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Condenser cooling fans
The condenser cooling fans operate automatically
whenever the air conditioning system is switched on.
Fan timer unit
The thermostatically controlled timer will continue to
operate the cooling fans after the air conditioning or
ignition is switched off. When the system temperature
is excessive, the fans will operate for 10 minutes to
reduce condenser and underbonnet temperature.
Blower control
The blower can be operated at any one of four speeds
by sliding the blower switch to the required position.
When the blower is switched off the air conditioning
system will not operate.
The fresh air/recirculation flaps can move between
two positions. One position covers the outside air
inlet, leaving open an inlet from the inside of the
vehicle clear, when recirculated air is required. In the
other position they will cover the inlet from the inside
of the vehicle leaving open the outside air inlet when
fresh air is required.Heater distribution and blend unit control
Blower unit air flow, having passed through the
evaporator passes into the heater blend unit to be
heated, if required. It is then directed into the vehicle
interior in accordance with the flap positions
designated by the air distribution control. Heater flaps
control the amount of air flowing through the heater
matrix. These flaps are controlled individually by the
driver's and passenger's temperature controls.
When the temperature control is in the cold position, a
micro switch actuates a vacuum control to close the
coolant valve on the engine. As the temperature
control is moved away from cold, the coolant valve is
opened allowing heated engine coolant to flow
throught the heater matrix. The temperature of the
heated air flow into the vehicle interior is controlled by
the blend flaps.
The distribution control moves the flaps which control
the direction of the air flow into the interior of the
vehicle.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Radio frequency system
The RF system uses four frequencies according to
market. If the coaxial aerial is not fitted system
performance will be impaired. Both ECU and handset
have a colour coded label.
Frequency Colour Territory

Partially armed mode
If a door, tailgate or bonnet [hood] is left open when
the system is armed, the LED will not light for 10
seconds indicating a mislock condition. Hazard lights
will not flash. If an open door or tailgate is causing the
mislock, the starter motor is disabled. The alarm will
sound if ignition is turned to start position. If an open
bonnet [hood] is causing the mislock the starter motor
is disabled. The alarm will arm the volumetric part of
the system. If the door tailgate or bonnet [hood] is
subsequently closed, after a 5 second delay, the
doors will unlock and immediately lock and the system
will fully arm.
Handset transmitter
The handset LED will give one short flash when
button is pressed momentarily.
If button is held down the LED will light again after 2
seconds for 2 seconds, and extinguish until button is
released and repressed. The handset contains unique
information distinguishing it from other transmitters. It
also contains a set of 'random' rolling codes
programmed into the ECU before leaving the factory.
Each time the handset is pressed a different code is
transmitted to the ECU.
If handset is operated more than four times outside
the vehicle range (6 metres) or power supply is
removed, it will be necessary to re-sychronise handset
and the ECU by pressing the handset three times
within range and within 5 seconds.
NOTE: If both handsets are lost or
damaged when system is armed it will be
necessary to fit a new ECU with two
matching handsets.
Handset batteries
If handset LED flashes continuously when button is
pressed, the batteries need replacing. The hazard
lights will flash one 3 second pulse, instead of three
times upon arming vehicle.
Power up mode
The alarm system always remembers the state it was
left in when power was removed. If the alarm powers
up in an armed state and is subsequently triggered it
will give a warning that it will fully trigger unless
disarmed. This warning consists of short horn pulses
every two seconds for 15 seconds.
New born mode
When the ECU is first produced, it will be in its 'new
born' mode. In this mode it will respond to any remote
of the right frequency. This mode will be cancelled
when the ECU has received ten valid handset signals
without power interruption.
Engine cranking
It is only possible to crank the engine when ignition is
ON and alarm disabled.
