18-2-36 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Idle Air Control Valve (IACV) (C0641)
The IACV is located on the side of the air inlet pipe on top of the engine. The IACV is used to maintain good quality
idle speed under all operating conditions.
When an engine is running at idle it is subject to a combination of internal and external loads that can affect idle speed.
These loads include engine friction, water pump, alternator operation, and air conditioning.
The IACV acts as an air bypass valve. The ECM uses the IACV to enable the closed loop idle speed calculation to be
made by the ECM. This calculation regulates the amount of air flow into the engine at idle, therefore compensating
for any internal or external loads that may affect idle speed.
The IACV utilises two coils that use opposing PWM signals to control the position of opening/closing of a rotary valve.
If one of the circuits that supply the PWM signal fails, the ECM closes down the remaining signal preventing the IACV
from working at its maximum/ minimum setting. If this should occur, the IACV automatically resumes a default idle
position. In this condition, the engine idle speed is raised and maintained at 1200 rev/min with no load placed on the
engine.
The idle speed in cold start condition is held at 1200 rev/min in neutral for 20 seconds and ignition timing is retarded
as a catalyst heating strategy. The cold start idle speed and the default idle position give the same engine speed 1200
rev/min, and although they are the same figure they must not be confused with each other as they are set separately
by the ECM.
Note that the rotary valve must not be forced to move by mechanical means. The actuator can not be
serviced; if defective, the entire IACV must be replaced.
Input/Output
The input to the IACV is a 12 volt signal from fuse 2 located in the engine compartment fuse box. The output earth
signal to open and close the actuator is controlled by the ECM as follows:
lIACV (open signal) - via pin 42 of connector C0636 of the ECM
lIACV (closed signal) - via pin 43 of connector C0636 of the ECM
The IACV can fail the following ways or supply incorrect signal:
lActuator faulty.
lRotary valve seized.
lWiring loom fault.
lConnector fault.
lIntake system air leak.
lBlocked actuator port or hoses.
lRestricted or crimped actuator port or hoses.
In the event of an IACV signal failure any of the following symptoms may be observed:
lEither low or high idle speed.
lEngine stalls.
lDifficult starting.
lIdle speed in default condition.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-37
There are eight IACV diagnostic checks performed by the ECM:
lOutput short circuit to earth – opening coil
lOutput short circuit to battery supply – opening coil
lOutput open circuit – opening coil
lOutput short circuit to earth – closing coil
lOutput short circuit to battery voltage – closing coil
lOutput open circuit – closing coil
lBlocked IACV – rev/min error low (engine speed must be 100 rev/min less than the target speed, engine load
less than 2.5 and the measured air flow more than 10 kg/h less than the expected air flow for a fault condition to
be flagged).
lBlocked IACV – rev/min error high (the engine speed must be more than 180 rev/min greater than the target
speed and the measured air flow more than 10 kg/h greater than the expected air flow for a fault condition to be
flagged).
Should a malfunction of the component occur, the following fault codes may be evident and can be retrieved by
TestBook.

18-2-40 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Ignition coils
Two double ended ignition coils are located at the rear of the engine, below the inlet plenum camber mounted on a
bracket. The ignition system operates on the wasted spark principle. When the ECM triggers an ignition coil to spark,
current from the coil travels to one spark plug jumping the gap at the spark plug electrodes igniting the mixture in the
cylinder. Current continues to travel along the earth path (via the cylinder head) to the spark plug negative electrode
at the cylinder that is on the exhaust stroke. The current jumps across the spark plug electrodes and back to the coil
completing the circuit. Since it has sparked simultaneously in a cylinder that is on the exhaust stroke it has not done
any work, therefore it is wasted.
The coils are paired in the following cylinder order:
l1 and 6.
l8 and 5.
l4 and 7.
l3 and 2.
The ECM calculates the dwell timing from battery voltage, and engine speed to ensure constant secondary energy.
This ensures sufficient spark energy is always available without excessive primary current flow and thus avoiding
overheating or damage to the coils. Individual cylinder spark timing is calculated from the following signals:
lEngine speed.
lEngine load.
lEngine temperature.
lKnock control.
lAutomatic gearbox shift control.
lIdle speed control.
During engine warm up ignition timing should be an expected value of 12° BTDC.
TestBook can not directly carry out diagnostics on the high-tension side of the ignition system. Ignition related faults
are monitored indirectly by the misfire detection system.

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-41
Input/Output
Input to the low tension side of the ignition coils comes from Fuse 14 located in the passenger compartment fuse box.
This fuse provides battery power for two ignition coils.
It is possible to test both primary and secondary coils of the ignition coils for resistance using a multimeter as follows:
lExpected primary coil resistance: 0.5 ± 0.05 Ω at 20 °C (68 °F).
lExpected secondary coil resistance: 13.3 ± 1.3 kΩ at 20 °C (68 °F).
The ECM provides the earth control for each coil on separate pins as follows:
LH Bank (cylinders 1, 3, 5, 7)
lCylinder 1 - pin 6 of connector C0638 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder 3 - pin 2 of connector C0638 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder 5 - pin 8 of connector C0638 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder 7 - pin 7 of connector C0638 of the ECM multiplug.
RH Bank (cylinders 2, 4, 6, 8)
lCylinder 2 - pin 2 of connector C0638 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder 4 - pin 7 of connector C0638 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder 6 - pin 6 of connector C0638 of the ECM multiplug.
lCylinder 8 - pin 8 of connector C0638 of the ECM multiplug.
The ignition coil can fail the following ways or supply incorrect signal:
lCoil open circuit.
lShort circuit to vehicle supply.
lShort circuit to vehicle earth.
lFaulty component.
In the event of ignition coil failure any of the following symptoms may be observed:
lEngine misfire on specific cylinders.
lEngine will not start.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-43
The ECM performs the following diagnostic checks to confirm correct knock sensor operation:
lKS signal level is less than the minimum threshold (dependent on engine speed) – the engine must be running,
coolant temperature above 60°C (140°F), number of camshaft revolutions since start greater than 50 and the KS
signal profile must be less than the threshold value at a given engine speed for a fault condition to be flagged
lKS signal is greater than the maximum threshold (dependent on engine speed) – the engine must be running,
coolant temperature above 60°C (140°F), number of camshaft revolutions since start greater than 50 and the KS
signal profile must be greater than the threshold value at a given engine speed for a fault condition to be flagged
lError counter for verification of knock internal circuitry exceeded – the engine must be running, coolant
temperature above 60°C (140°F), number of camshaft revolutions since start greater than 50 and the error
counter greater than the threshold value at a given engine speed for a fault condition to be flagged
Should a malfunction of the component occur the following fault codes may be evident and can be retrieved by
TestBook:
Spark plugs
The spark plugs are platinum tipped on both centre and earth electrodes. The platinum tips give a long maintenance
free life.
Cleaning or resetting the spark plug gap is not recommended as this could result in damaging the platinum tips and
thereby reducing reliability.
The misfire detection system will malfunction and store erroneous codes if the incorrect spark plugs are used.
Input/Output
The ignition coils provide a voltage to the spark plugs via the ht leads. The cylinder head via the individual thread of
each spark plug provides the earth path.
The spark plugs can fail in the following ways:
lFaulty component.
lConnector or wiring fault.
lBreakdown of high tension lead causing tracking to chassis earth.
lIncorrect spark plugs fitted.
In the event of a spark plug failure, misfire on specific cylinder may be observed:
