EMISSION CONTROL - V8
17-2-40 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
EVAP system, leak detection diagnostic (vacuum type)
The EVAP system leak detection is performed as follows:
1The ECM checks that the signal from the fuel tank pressure sensor is within the expected range. If the signal is
not within range, the leakage test will be cancelled.
2Next the purge valve is held closed and the canister vent solenoid (CVS) valve is opened to atmosphere. If the
ECM detects a rise in pressure with the valves in this condition, it indicates there is a blockage in the fuel
evaporation line between the CVS valve and the EVAP canister, or that the CVS valve is stuck in the closed
position and thus preventing normalisation of pressure in the fuel evaporation system. In this instance, the
leakage test will be cancelled.
3The CVS valve and the purge valve are both held in the closed position while the ECM checks the fuel tank
pressure sensor. If the fuel tank pressure sensor detects a decline in pressure, it indicates that the purge valve
is not closing properly and vapour is leaking past the valve seat face under the influence of the intake manifold
depression. In this instance, the leakage test will be cancelled.
4If the preliminary checks are satisfactory, a compensation measurement is determined next. Variations in fuel
level occur within the fuel tank, which will influence the pressure signal detected by the fuel tank pressure
sensor. The pressure detected will also be influenced by the rate of change in the fuel tank pressure, caused by
the rate of fuel evaporation which itself is dependent on the ambient temperature conditions. Because of these
variations, it is necessary for the ECM to evaluate the conditions prevailing at a particular instance when testing,
to ensure that the corresponding compensation factor is included in its calculations.
The CVS valve and purge valves are both closed while the ECM checks the signal from the fuel tank pressure
sensor. The rise in fuel pressure detected over a defined period is used to determine the rate of fuel evaporation
and the consequent compensation factor necessary.
5With the CVS valve still closed, the purge valve is opened. The inlet manifold depression present while the purge
valve is open, decreases EVAP system pressure and sets up a small vacuum in the fuel tank. The fuel tank
pressure sensor is monitored by the ECM and if the vacuum gradient does not increase as expected, a large
system leak is assumed by the ECM (e.g. missing or leaking fuel filler cap) and the diagnostic test is terminated.
If the EVAP canister is heavily loaded with hydrocarbons, purging may cause the air:fuel mixture to become
excessively rich, resulting in the upstream oxygen sensors requesting a leaner mix from the ECM to bring the
mixture back to the stoichiometric ideal. This may cause instability in the engine idle speed and consequently
the diagnostic test will have to be abandoned. The ECM checks the status of the upstream oxygen sensors
during the remainder of the diagnostic, to ensure the air:fuel mixture does not adversely affect the engine idle
speed.
6When the fuel tank pressure sensor detects that the required vacuum has been reached (-800 Pa), the purge
valve is closed and the EVAP system is sealed. The ECM then checks the change in the fuel tank pressure
sensor signal (diminishing vacuum) over a period of time, and if it is greater than expected (after taking into
consideration the compensation factor due to fuel evaporation within the tank, determined earlier in the
diagnostic), a leak in the EVAP system is assumed. If the condition remains, the MIL warning light will be turned
on after two drive cycles.
The decrease in vacuum pressure over the defined period must be large enough to correspond to a hole
equivalent to 1 mm (0.04 in.) diameter or greater, to be considered significant enough to warrant the activation
of an emissions system failure warning.
The diagnostic test is repeated at regular intervals during the drive cycle, when the engine is at idle condition. The
diagnostic test will not be able to be performed under the following conditions:
lDuring EVAP canister purging
lDuring fuelling adaption
lIf excess slosh in the fuel tank is detected (excess fuel vapour will be generated, invalidating the result)

EMISSION CONTROL - V8
DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 17-2-41
Following the test, the system returns to normal purge operation after the canister vent solenoid opens. Possible
reasons for an EVAP system leak test failure are listed below:
lFuel filler not tightened or cap missing.
lSensor or actuator open circuit.
lShort circuit to vehicle supply or ground.
lEither purge or CVS valve stuck open.
lEither purge or CVS valve stuck shut or blocked pipe.
lPiping broken or not connected.
lLoose or leaking connection.
If the piping is broken forward of the purge valve or is not connected, the engine may run rough and fuelling adaptions
will drift. The fault will not be detected by the leak detection diagnostic, but it will be determined by the engine
management ECM through the fuelling adaption diagnostics.
The evaluation of leakage is dependent on the differential pressure between the fuel tank and ambient atmospheric
pressure, the diagnostic is disabled above altitudes of 9500 ft. (2800 m) to avoid false detection of fuel leaks due to
the change in atmospheric pressure at altitude.
Fuel leak detection system (positive pressure leak detection type) – NAS only
The EVAP system with positive pressure leak detection capability used on NAS vehicles is similar to the standard
system, but also includes a fuel evaporation leak detection pump with integral solenoid valve. It is capable of detecting
holes in the EVAP system down to 0.5 mm (0.02 in.). The test is carried out at the end of a drive cycle, when the
vehicle is stationary and the ignition switch has been turned off. The ECM maintains an earth supply to the Main relay
to hold it on, so that power can be supplied to the leak detection pump.
First a reference measurement is established by passing the pressurised air through a by-pass circuit containing a
fixed sized restriction. The restriction assimilates a 0.5 mm (0.02 in) hole and the current drawn by the pump motor
during this procedure is recorded for comparison against the value to be obtained in the system test. The purge valve
is held closed, and the reversing valve in the leak detection pump module is not energised while the leak detection
pump is switched on. The pressurised air from the leak detection pump is forced through an orifice while the current
drawn by the pump motor is monitored.
Next the EVAP system diagnostic is performed; the solenoid valve is energised so that it closes off the EVAP system's
vent line to atmosphere, and opens a path for the pressurised air from the leak detection pump to be applied to the
closed EVAP system.
The current drawn by the leak detection pump is monitored and checked against that obtained during the reference
measurement. If the current is less than the reference value, this infers there is a hole in the EVAP system greater
than 0.5 mm (0.02 in) which is allowing the positive air pressure to leak out. If the current drawn by the pump motor
is greater than the value obtained during the reference check, the system is sealed and free from leaks. If an EVAP
system leak is detected, the ECM stores the fault in diagnostic memory and the MIL light on the instrument pack is
illuminated.
On NAS vehicles, the ECM works on a 2 trip cycle before illuminating the MIL. On EU-3 vehicles, the ECM works on
a 3 trip cycle before illuminating the MIL.
Following the test, the solenoid valve is opened to normalise the EVAP system pressure and the system returns to
normal purge operation at the start of the next drive cycle. Possible reasons for an EVAP system leak test failure are
listed below:
lFuel filler not tightened or cap missing.
lSensor or actuator open circuit.
lShort circuit to vehicle supply or ground.
lEither purge or solenoid valve stuck open.
lEither purge or solenoid valve stuck shut.
lBlocked pipe or air filter.
lPiping broken or not connected.
lLoose or leaking connection.
If the piping is broken forward of the purge valve or is not connected, the engine may run rough and fuelling adaptions
will drift. The fault will not be detected by the leak detection test, but will be determined by the engine management
ECM through the fuelling adaption diagnostics. This test can be run from TestBook.

18-1-6 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Description
General
An engine control module (ECM) controls the five-cylinder direct injection diesel engine, and works on the drive by
wire principle. This means there is no throttle cable, the ECM controls the drivers needs via a signal from the Throttle
Position (TP) sensor on the throttle pedal.
The ECM is a full authoritative diesel specific microprocessor that also incorporates features for cruise control and air
conditioning control. In addition, the ECM supplies output control for the exhaust gas recirculation and turbocharger
boost pressure. The ECM has a self-diagnostic function, which is able to provide backup strategies for most sensor
failures.
The ECM processes information from the following input sources:
lMass air flow sensor.
lAmbient air pressure sensor.
lManifold absolute pressure/inlet air temperature sensor.
lEngine coolant temperature sensor.
lCrankshaft speed and position sensor.
lThrottle position sensor.
lFuel temperature sensor.
lAir conditioning request.
lAir conditioning fan request.
lBrake pedal switch.
lClutch switch.
lCruise control master switch.
lCruise control SET+ switch.
lCruise control RES switch.
lHigh/low ratio switch.
The input from the sensors constantly updates the ECM with the current operating condition of the engine. Once the
ECM has compared current information with stored information within its memory, it can make any adjustment it
requires to the operation of the engine via the following:
lAir conditioning clutch relay.
lAir conditioning cooling fan relay.
lElectronic vacuum regulator solenoid.
lMalfunction indicator lamp.
lFuel pump relay.
lGlow plug warning lamp.
lGlow plugs.
lFuel injectors.
lMain relay.
lTurbocharger wastegate modulator.
lTemperature gauge.
The ECM interfaces with the following:
lElectronic Automatic Transmission (EAT).
lSelf Levelling and Anti-lock Brakes System (SLABS).
lSerial communication link.
lInstrument cluster.
lBody Control Unit (BCU).

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - TD5
18-1-12 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP)/Inlet Air Temperature (IAT) sensor
The MAP/IAT sensors are combined in one unit located in the inlet manifold. It provides pressure and temperature
information about the air in the inlet manifold to the ECM. The ECM compares the voltage signal to stored values and
compensates fuel delivery as necessary. The ECM uses the signal from the MAP/IAT sensor for the following
functions:
lTo calculate the delivered fuel limits.
lTo calculate the air mass in the cylinder.
lTo calculate the air speed density.
lTo calculate air temperature.
The MAP sensor works on the piezo crystal principal. Piezo crystals are pressure sensitive and will oscillate in
accordance to changes in air pressure. The MAP sensor produces a voltage between 0 and 5 volts proportional to
the pressure level of the air in the inlet manifold. A reading of 0 volts indicates a low pressure and a reading of 5 volts
indicates a high pressure.
The IAT portion of the sensor works as a Negative Temperature Co-efficient (NTC) sensor. As air temperature rises,
the resistance in the sensor decreases. As temperature decreases the resistance in the sensor increases. The ECM
compares the voltage signal to stored values and compensates fuel delivery as necessary.
Input/Output
The ECM provides the MAP/IAT sensor with a 5 volt supply. There are 2 output signals from the sensor, one from the
MAP and one from the IAT. Input to the MAP/IAT comes from pin 8 of the ECM connector C0158. Output from the
MAP is measured at pin 6 of the ECM connector C0158. IAT output signal measured at pin 34 of the ECM connector
C0158. The earth path is via pin 17 of ECM connector C0658. The MAP/IAT sensors share the same common earth.

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - TD5
18-1-14 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor
The ECT sensor is located in the coolant outlet elbow on the top of the engine. It provides the ECM with engine coolant
temperature information. The ECM uses this ECT information for the following functions:
lFuelling calculations.
lTemperature gauge.
lTo limit engine operation if coolant temperature is too high.
lCooling fan operation.
lGlow plug operating time.
The ECT works as an NTC sensor. As temperature rises, the resistance in the sensor decreases, as temperature
decreases, the resistance in the sensor increases. The ECM compares the voltage signal to stored values and
compensates fuel delivery to ensure optimum driveability at all times.
Input/Output
The inputs and outputs for the ECT are earth and signal out.
The ECT signal is measured at pin 7 of the ECM connector C0158. The earth path is via pin 18 of ECM connector
C0158.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-1-15
The ECT sensor can fail the following ways or supply incorrect signal:
lSensor open circuit.
lShort circuit to vehicle supply.
lShort circuit to earth.
lIncorrect mechanical fitting.
lSignal fixed above 40
°C (104 °F) not detected.
lSignal fixed below 40

In the event of an ECT sensor signal failure any of the following symptoms may be observed:
lDifficult cold start.
lDifficult hot start.
lDriveability concerns.
lInstrument pack temperature warning illuminated.
lTemperature gauge reads excessively hot.
lTemperature gauge reads excessively cold.
In the event of component failure the ECM calculates coolant temperature from the fuel temperature sensor signal. If
this occurs, the limit engine operation if coolant temperature is too high becomes inoperative.
The MIL will not illuminate in an ECT sensor failure.

ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - TD5
18-1-16 DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Crankshaft speed and Position (CKP) sensor
The CKP is located in the transmission housing with its tip adjacent to the outer circumference of the flywheel. The
CKP sensor works on the variable reluctance principle, which sends a signal back to the ECM in the form of an ac
voltage.
The ECM uses the signal from the CKP for the following functions:
lTo calculate engine speed.
lTo determine engine crank position.
lTo determine fuel injection timing.
The CKP sensor works as a Variable Reluctance Sensor (VRS). It uses an electromagnet and a target ring to generate
a signal. As the target ring passes the tip of the CKP sensor the magnetic field produced by the sensor is cut and then
re-instated. The ECM measures the signal as an ac voltage.
The outer circumference of the flywheel acts as the target ring for the sensor. The flywheel is divided into 36 segments
each of 10
°. 31 segments have drilled holes and 5 segments are spaces. This equals 360° or one engine revolution.
The 5 spaces correspond to the TDC position of the 5 cylinders, this allows the ECM to control fuel injection timing
for each of the cylinders.
Input/Output
The two pins on the sensor are both outputs. The ECM processes the outputs of the sensor. To protect the integrity
of the CKP signal an earth shield or screen is used.
The ECM measures the outputs from the CKP. The ECM measures the positive signal from the CKP at pin 13 of ECM
connector C0158. The ECM measures the negative signal from the CKP at pin 36 of ECM connector C0158. The earth
path is via pin 16 of ECM connector C0158.
Voltage generation from the CKP sensor is relative to engine speed. The values expected from a good CKP sensor
are as follows:
l2 to 3 volts with engine cranking.
lRising to 6 to 6.5 volts from 1000 rev/min upwards.
The above readings are dependent upon correct air gap between the tip of the CKP sensor and the passing teeth of
the reluctor ring.
