ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
18-2-58 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Input/Output
The input from the cruise control master switch to the cruise control ECU is either a 12 Volts ignition feed or an open
circuit. 12 Volts indicates that the cruise control master switch is on and the system can be activated. An open circuit
indicates that the cruise control master switch is off and cruise control cannot be activated.
TestBook will not communicate with the cruise control ECU if the cruise control master switch is off.
SLABS ECU
The SLABS ECU provides the road speed signal to the cruise control ECU. This is the same speed signal provided
to the ECM. Cruise control will only operate between 28 - 125 mph (45 - 200 km/h). Cruise control will not operate if
a road speed signal is not present.
Input/Output
The input from the SLABS ECU to the cruise control ECU is a square wave oscillating between 0 - 12 Volts at a
frequency of 8,000 pulses per mile (1.6 km).

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
18-2-60 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
SET+/RES switches
The cruise control system uses two steering wheel switches labelled SET+ and RES.
The SET+ switch performs the set speed, tap up and accelerator functions. The RES switch performs the resume and
suspend functions.
With the cruise control master switch on and the vehicle in the cruise control operating speed range, one press of the
SET+ switch stores a speed value in the cruise control ECU. If the switch is pressed and held while the vehicle is
under cruise control operation, speed increases until the switch is released. At this point the cruise control ECU stores
the new speed value. If the switch is tapped (held down for less than 0.5 second) the cruise control ECU increases
vehicle speed by 1 mph (1.5 km/h).
If the RES switch is pressed while the systems is inactive (no stored values) the system will not respond. If there is
a stored value in the cruise control ECU memory and the switch is pressed, the cruise control system operates and
holds the vehicle at the stored road speed. If the cruise control system is active and the RES switch is depressed,
the cruise control ECU deactivates cruise operation but maintains the current set speed value.
Input/Output
The input from the SET+ switch to the cruise control ECU is either 12 Volts or an open circuit.
The input from the RES switch to the cruise control ECU is either 12 Volts or an open circuit.
The following diagnostic information is available through TestBook:
lThe state of operator switch SET+.

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-61
Brake pedal switch
The cruise control ECU has two inputs from the brake pedal switch that determine the position of the brake pedal.
One input comes through the BCU and is low when the brake pedal is not pressed. The second input comes directly
from the brake pedal switch. This input is high when the brake pedal is not pressed. On vehicles with a manual
gearbox, the input from the clutch pedal switch to the cruise control ECU is connected in series with the direct signal
from the brake pedal switch.
If the cruise control ECU receives a changed signal from either source, it deactivates cruise control, removing power
to the vacuum pump and activating the vacuum control valve releasing all vacuum in the system.
The brake pedal switch also provides the signal to illuminate the brake lamps and the brake input to the SLABS ECU.
Input/Output
With the brake pedal and the clutch pedal in the rest position, the cruise control ECU receives 12 Volts.
With the brake pedal pressed, the cruise control ECU receives 0 Volts and a low voltage logic signal from the BCU.
NOTE: If the clutch pedal is pressed, 0 Volts are present at the cruise control ECU irrespective of brake pedal position.

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8
18-2-66 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Operation - cruise control
Cruise control activation
Cruise control is a passive system. The driver must activate it. Switching on the cruise control master switch located
on the instrument panel activates cruise control. An LED in the switch illuminates, indicating cruise control is
available. The driver must accelerate the vehicle to the desired speed using the accelerator pedal. When the desired
speed is reached, pressing the SET+ switch activates cruise control. Cruise control will only activate if the following
conditions are met:
lVehicle speed is between 28 - 125 mph (45 - 200 km/h).
lThe brake pedal is not pressed.
lThe clutch pedal is not pressed (manual gearbox only).
lThe gearbox is not in park, reverse or neutral (automatic gearbox only).
Function
The cruise control ECU receives the set signal and determines the vehicle speed provided by the SLABS ECU. The
cruise control ECU activates the vacuum pump assembly to move the pneumatic actuator and the linkage to the
throttle disc to maintain set road speed. It does this by controlling the vacuum to the pneumatic actuator.
Cruise control cancellation
Cancelling cruise control enables the driver to regain control of the vehicle speed by using the accelerator pedal.
Cruise control is cancelled if any of the following conditions occur:
lThe brake pedal is pressed.
lThe RES switch button is pressed.
lThe clutch pedal is pressed (manual gearbox only).
lThe cruise control master switch is turned off.
lThe gearbox is placed in park, neutral, or reverse (automatic gearbox only).
Function
The cruise control ECU cancels cruise control operation by opening a vacuum control valve in the vacuum pump
assembly. This releases the throttle linkage from the control of the pneumatic actuator and returns it to the control of
the accelerator pedal.
The set speed will be stored in the cruise control ECU unless:
lThe cruise control master switch is turned off.
lThe ignition switch is turned off.
If cruise control is deactivated using either of the above methods, the set speed will be erased from the memory of
the cruise control ECU.
Cruise control resume
Cruise control can be resumed at the previously set speed, provided the set speed has not been erased from the
cruise control ECU memory as described above. To resume cruise control operation to the previously set speed,
depress the RES switch once when the following conditions are met:
lA set speed is stored in the cruise control ECU.
lVehicle speed is between 28 - 125 mph (45 - 200 km/h).
lThe brake pedal is not pressed.
lThe clutch pedal is not pressed (manual gearbox only).
lThe gearbox is not in park, reverse or neutral (automatic gearbox only).

FUEL DELIVERY SYSTEM - TD5
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 19-1-5
The fuel pump is a 'self priming', wet type, two stage pump which is immersed in fuel in the tank and operates at all
times when the ignition switch is in position II. If the engine is not started, the ECU will 'time-out' after three minutes
and de-energise the fuel pump relay. The pump receives a feed from the battery via fuse 10 in the engine
compartment fusebox and the fuel pump relay. The relay is energised by the ECM when the ignition switch is moved
to position II.
The fuel pump assembly is retained with a locking ring and sealed with a rubber seal. The locking ring requires a
special tool for removal and refitment. An access panel for the fuel pump is located in the loadspace floor below the
carpet. The access panel is sealed to the floor with a rubber seal and retained by six self-tapping screws. A four pin
electrical connector is located on the top cover and provides power feed and earth for the fuel pump and also inputs
and outputs for the fuel gauge sender operation.
The fuel gauge sender is integral with the fuel pump. The sender is submerged in the fuel and is operated by a float
which moves with the fuel level in the tank.
Fuel pump
The fuel pump assembly comprises a top cover which locates the electrical connector, fuel burning heater connection
and four fuel pipe couplings. The top cover is attached to a plastic cup shaped housing and retained on three sliding
clips. Two coil springs are located between the cover and the housing and ensure that the fuel pump remains seated
positively at the bottom of the tank when installed.
The housing locates the two stage fuel pump and also the fuel gauge sender unit. The lower part of the housing is the
swirl pot which maintains a constant level of fuel at the fuel pick-up. A coarse filter is located in the base of the housing
and prevents the ingress of contaminants into the pump and the fuel system from the fuel being drawn into the pump.
A fine filter is located in the intake to the low pressure stage to protect the pump from contaminants. Flexible pipes
connect the couplings on the top cover to the pump.
A non-return valve is located in the base of the housing. When the fuel tank is full, fuel pressure keeps the valve lifted
from its seat allowing fuel to flow into the swirl pot. As the tank level reduces, the fuel pressure in the tank reduces
causing the valve to close. When the valve is closed fuel is retained in the swirl pot, ensuring that the swirl pot remains
full and maintains a constant supply to the fuel pump.
The two stage pump comprises a high and a low pressure stage. The low pressure stage draws fuel from the swirl
pot through the filter. The low pressure stage pumps fluid at a pressure of 0.75 bar (10.9 lbf.in
2) and a flow of 30 litres/
hour (8 US Gallons/hour) to the fuel filter. A proportion of the fuel from the low pressure stage also passes, via a
restrictor, through a jet pump which keeps fuel circulating in the swirl pot. The high pressure stage draws the low
pressure fuel from the fuel filter and pressurises it to a pressure of 4.0 bar (58 lbf.in
2). The pressurised fuel is then
passed from the pump to the injectors at a flow of 180 litres/hour (47.6 US Gallons/hour). A fuel pressure regulator is
located at the rear of the engine and ensures that the delivery pressure remains at 4.0 bar (58 lbf.in
2) by controlling
the amount of fuel returning to the fuel tank.
The fuel pump has a maximum current draw of 15 Amps at 12.5 V and is protected by a 20 Amp fuse in the engine
compartment fusebox.
