DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Throttle position sensor (TP Sensor)
The throttle position sensor is mounted on the plenum
chamber and connected directly to the throttle shaft.
The sensor is a variable resistor, the signal from
which (0 - 5V) informs the ECM of the actual position
of the throttle disc. As there is no default strategy,
failure of the sensor will result in poor idle and lack of
throttle response. If failure occurs in the closed
position the engine will only reach 1750 rev/min when
the ECM will initiate overrun fuel cut off. The fault is
indicated by illumination of the malfunction indicator
light (MIL) on North American specification vehicles.
Engine coolant temperature sensor (ECT Sensor)
This sensor consists of a temperature dependant
resistive metal strip. The resistance of the strip varies
considerably with coolant temperature, i.e. from 28K
ohms at - 30°C to 90 ohms at 130°C, and 300 Ohms
at 85°C. The ECT Sensor signal is vital to engine
running, as the correct fuelling is dependant upon
engine temperature i.e. richer mixture at low
temperatures. If the sensor is disconnected or failure
occurs a default value will be supplied to the system.
The initial default value selected will be based on the
value of the air intake temperature. This will increase
to a nominal warmed up value over an individual time,
programmed for each default value. The fault may not
be evident to the driver, there may be a hot restart
problem. The fault is indicated by illumination of the
malfunction indicator light (MIL) on North American
specification vehicles.Intake air temperature sensor (IAT Sensor)
This is another resistive sensor, located in the body of
the air cleaner. The resistance varies with changes in
air temperature. The signal from the IAT Sensor is
used to retard the ignition timing if the air temperature
rises above 55°C. If the sensor is disconnected or
failure occurs a default value will be supplied to the
system. The default value selected will represent
normal operating conditions. The fault may not be
evident to the driver, there may be slight power loss in
high ambient temperatures. The fault is indicated by
illumination of the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on
North American specification vehicles.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION Basic ignition timing
MEMS provides the optimum ignition timing for the
relevant engine speed and load. The speed and
position of the engine is detected by the crankshaft
sensor which is bolted to, and projects through the
engine adapter plate.
The sensor incorporates an armature which runs
adjacent to a reluctor insert in the flywheel, the insert
consisting of 34 poles spaced at 10°intervals, with
two missing poles 180°apart to identify the T.D.C.
positions.
The sensor 'reads' these poles to provide a constant
up-date of engine speed and crankshaft position to
the ECM
The load signal is provided by the manifold absolute
pressure sensor mounted inside the ECM casing
which detects manifold pressure via a hose connected
to the manifold chamber. The sensor converts
pressure variations into graduated electrical signals
which can be read by the ECMIgnition timing compensation
Coolant temperature sensor
When the ECM receives a low engine temperature
signal from the coolant sensor, it provides optimum
driveability and emissions by advancing or retarding
the ignition timing.
Knock sensor
The knock sensor is a capacitive device mounted in
the cylinder block between nos. 2 and 3 cylinders
below the inlet manifold. The sensor monitors noise
and vibration in the engine and passes this
information to the ECM which is able to identify the
characteristics of the knocking and make the
necessary corrections to the ignition timing of
individual cylinders.
Idle speed control
When the throttle pedal is released and the engine is
at idle, the ECM uses the fast response of ignition
timing to assist idle speed control.
When loads are placed on, or removed from the
engine the ECM senses the change in engine speed
and in conjuction with the opening of the throttle disc
by the stepper motor, advances or retards the ignition
timing to maintain the specified idle speed. When load
is removed from the engine and the stepper motor
returns to it's original position, the ignition timing
returns to the idle setting.
NOTE: Due to the sensitivity of this system
the ignition timing will be constantly
changing at idle speed.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION SYSTEM OPERATION
Ignition on
When the ignition is switched on, voltage is applied to
ECM pin 11. The ECM then switches on the main
relay by supplying an earth path at pin 4. This allows
battery voltage to pass to ECM pin 28, to the four
injectors and through the ignition coil to ECM pin 25.
In addition, the fuel pump relay is switched on by the
ECM supplying an earth path on pin 20. Voltage is
applied through the inertia switch to the fuel pump.
The pump runs for a short period to pressurise the
fuel rail. The fuel pressure regulator will open at its
maximum setting and excess fuel is spill returned to
the tank.
The ECM determines the amount of stepper motor
movement from the following signals:
·Engine coolant temperature data at pin 33.
·Inlet air temperature data at pin 16.
·Throttle potentiometer data at pin 8.
·Engine speed data at pins 31 and 32.
·Manifold absolute pressure data (via pipe from
manifold).
·Battery voltage at pin 28.
·Ignition signal at pin 11.
If one or more of the following inputs fail, the ECM will
substitute the back-up values shown to maintain
driveability.
Input Back-up value
Coolant temperature Idle Speed controlled until
engine is fully warm. 60°Cat
speeds above idle.
Inlet air temperature Derived from engine speed and
engine load.
Manifold absolute Derived from engine speed and
pressure throttle position.
Starter operation
Whilst the starter relay is energised, battery voltage is
applied to the starter motor solenoid. The solenoid
also energises and supplies battery voltage directly to
the starter motor.
Ignition is controlled by the ECM switching the low
tension circuit via pin 25.
The ECM provides an earth signal on pins 24, 23, 26
and 1 for the period the injectors are required to be
open, the injector solenoids are energised
(simultaneously on naturally aspirated models) and
fuel is sprayed into the manifold onto the back of the
inlet valves. The ECM carefully meters the amount of
fuel injected by adjusting the injector opening period
(pulse width). During cranking, when the engine
speed is below approx. 400 rev/min, the ECM
increases the injector pulse width to aid starting. The
amount of increase depends upon coolant
temperature. To prevent flooding, injector pulses are
intermittent i.e. 24 on then 8 pulses off.
Idling
After start enrichment is provided at all temperatures
immediately cranking ceases. The ECM controls the
enrichment by increasing injector pulse width. The
enrichment decays in relation to the rising coolant
temperature.
Provided the ECM is receiving a signal that the engine
speed is close to the idle speed set point, the ECM
will implement idle speed control.
The ECM activates a unipolar stepper motor acting
directly on the throttle lever. Idle speed response is
improved by the ignition system advancing or
retarding the timing when load is placed on, or
removed from the engine.
If, during engine idle, the load on the engine is
increased sufficiently to cause engine speed to fall,
the ECM will sense this via the crankshaft sensor and
instantly advance the ignition timing to increase idle
speed and then energise the stepper motor to open
the throttle disc thus maintaining the idle speed.
Finally the ignition timing is retarded to its nominal
value.
The ECM monitors battery voltage and, if voltage falls
sufficiently to cause fluctuations in injector pulse
widths, it increases the injector pulse widths to
compensate.
On return to idle, the ECM will implement a slightly
higher idle speed to prevent the engine stalling.

CRUISE CONTROL
1
FAULT DIAGNOSIS ROAD TEST
CAUTION: Do not engage cruise control
when vehicle is being used in low transfer
gear or reverse.
WARNING: The use of cruise control is not
recommended on winding, snow covered
or slippery roads or in heavy traffic
conditions where a constant speed cannot be
maintained.
1.Start engine, depress main control switch to
actuate cruise control system. Accelerate to
approximately 50 km/h, (30 mph), operate
'set/acc'switch, immediately release switch,
remove foot from accelerator pedal. Vehicle
should maintain speed at which'set/acc'switch
was operated.
2.Operate'set/acc'switch and hold at that
position, vehicle should accelerate smoothly until
switch is released. Vehicle should now maintain
new speed at which'set/acc'switch was
released.
3.Momentarily touch and release'set/acc'switch,
vehicle speed should increase 1.6 km/h (1 mph)
for each touch. Note that five touches will
increase speed 8 km/h (5 mph).
4.Apply'res/decel'switch while vehicle is in cruise
control mode, cruise control should disengage.
Slow to approximately 55 km/h, (35 mph)
operate'res/decel'switch, immediately release
switch and remove foot from accelerator, vehicle
should smoothly accelerate to previously set
speed. Increase speed using accelerator pedal,
release pedal, vehicle should return to previously
set speed.
NOTE: The cruise control system fitted to
the diesel engine is not as responsive as
that fitted to the petrol engine, due to the
characteristics of diesel engines. Therefore, at
speeds below approx. 65 km/h (40 mph), the
vehicle speed may drop when cruise is selected
and then slowly regain the 'set' speed.5.Operate brake pedal, cruise control system
should immediately disengage returning vehicle
to driver control at accelerator pedal. Operate
'res/decel'switch, vehicle should accelerate to
previously set speed without driver operation of
accelerator pedal.
6.Operate'res/decel'switch and allow vehicle to
decelerate to below 42 km/h, (26 mph). Operate
'res/decel'switch, cruise control system should
remain disengaged.
7.Operate'set/acc'switch below 40 km/h, (28
mph), cruise control system should remain
disengaged. Accelerate, using accelerator pedal
to above 45 km/h, (28 mph), operate'res/decel'
switch, and remove foot from accelerator pedal,
vehicle should smoothly adjust to previously
memorised speed.
8. Automatic vehicles- select neutral, system
should disengage.Manual vehicles- depress
clutch, system should disengage.
9.Cruise at 80 km/h (50 mph), declutch, select
neutral, remove foot from clutch. Operate
'res/decel'switch. Engine should rev to 5000
rev/min, cruise control disengages, engine
returns to idle.
10.Engage forward gear. Operate'res/decel'
switch. Remove foot from accelerator. Speed
should accelerate to previous set speed.
11.Depress main control switch in control system
should immediately disengage and erase
previously set speed from ECU memory.

CLUTCH
1
FAULT DIAGNOSIS CLUTCH ASSEMBLY CONDITIONS
For the clutch to operate correctly as described and
illustrated in the "Description and Operation", it is
important the following conditions are satisfied:-
A. The primary shaft 15 must be free in the
crankshaft spigot bush 17.
B. The friction plate 2 must be able to slide easily
on the splines on the primary shaft 15, to a
position where it does not contact either the
flywheel or the pressure plate.
C. The friction plate must not be distorted or the
linings contaminated with oil, which may cause it
to stick or continue to run in contact with the
flywheel or pressure plate.
A number of faults can develop in the operation of the
clutch for a variety of reasons and although most
faults are due to normal wear at high mileage,
problems can also occur if the unit has been renewed
by an unskilled operator.
Recognising and diagnosing a particular clutch fault is
therefore of paramount importance in ensuring, that
the problem is rectified at the first attempt.
Problems which develop in the clutch are as follows:-
A. Clutch spin/drag
B. Clutch slip
C. Clutch judder/fierceCLUTCH SPIN - DRAG
Symptoms
Clutch spin is that, with engine running and clutch
pedal depressed, the gears cannot be immediately
engaged without making a grinding noise. This
indicates the clutch is not making a clean break.
However, if the clutch pedal is held depressed for
several seconds the friction plate will eventually break
free from the engine and the gear will engage silently.
Clutch spin as it becomes more severe develops into
clutch drag, making the silent engagement of a gear
impossible, regardless of how long the pedal is held
depressed.
CLUTCH SLIP
Symptoms
Clutch slip is most evident climbing a hill or when the
vehicle is moving off from stationary with a heavy
load. As the clutch is released slip occurs between the
engine and the transmission, allowing the engine
speed to increase without a corresponding increase in
vehicle speed.
Clutch slip can develop to the stage where no power
is transmitted through the clutch as the pedal is
released.
CLUTCH JUDDER - FIERCE
Symptoms
Clutch judder or fierce engagement, like slip, is most
likely to occur when the vehicle is moving off from
stationary. As the clutch pedal is released the vehicle
will move rapidly or in a series of jerks, which can not
be controlled even by careful operation of the clutch
by the driver.
It should be noted that a vehicle may display all the
symptoms or any combination of the symptoms
described, depending on the driving conditions vehicle
load and operating temperatures.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION BRAKE SERVO UNIT
Description
The power assistance for the brake system is
provided by a twin diaphragm suspended vacuum
servo.
A 'Suspended Vacuum' servo is one where, with the
engine running vacuum is present both sides of the
diaphragm or diaphragms when the brakes are fully
released or partially applied. The principal of having
vacuum both sides of the diaphragm has two main
advantages. First, it ensures instantaneous servo
response to the brake being applied or released and
second, it provides very accurate control of the
position of the diaphragm and therefore, the degree of
partial brake application.At full pedal depression, vacuum is present in front of
the diaphragm with atmospheric pressure on the rear.
Operation
Brakes released
With the brakes released depression is present both
sides of the diaphragms, in chambers 1,2,3 and 4.
The chambers comunicate by ports A, B, D via the
valve C which is shown fully released in RR3640M.
