EC - 183
1.9 CTI Engine Maintenance Manual EC Engine control system
maintenance, it is not allowed to remove the high-pressure fuel pipe during engine operation. When it is
necessary to maintain the fuel system, shut down the engine before disassembling the high-pressure fuel
pipe;
In the case of battery connection, the positive pole and negative pole of the battery can not be connected
reversely so as to prevent electronic component damages. This system adopts negative ground;
During engine operation, it is not allowed to remove the battery cable;
When carrying out electrical welding on the vehicle, it is necessary to remove the battery positive pole,
negative pole cables as well as electronic control units;
Do not penetrate the wire insulation for the detection of part input/output electric signal.
Cleaning and maintenance procedures of the common-rail engine fuel system
The fuel systemof the common-rail engine consists of low-pressure fuel delivery pipes and high-pressure fuel
pipes. The maximum pressure can be more than 1600bar. Some parts in the fuel injector and HP pump adopt fine
machining with the precision of 0.1mm. Pressure regulation and fuel injection are controlled by the engine ECU
so that foreign matters from exterior may lead to stuck needle valve in the interior. Therefore, the fuel injector will
maintain open. However, the HP pump is still operasting and supplying high-pressure fuel. Excessive fuel will be
injected into the combustion chamber and this will lead to sharp pressure increase in the combustion chamber
(above 250bar) and result inj serious damage of the engine.
You can refer to the figure below (left side one) for the comparison between the fuel injector and hair. Besides, the
fitting clearances for internal components are as shown in the right figure.

The CKP sensor is a magnetic sensor. The piston position in the combustor chamber determines the fuel injection
start time, the engine piston is connected with the crankshaft via the connecting rod, and the CKP sensor can offer
data of all piston positions; the rotation speed determines the rpm (revolutions per minute) of the crankshaft. The
crankshaft is connected with a ferromagnetic trigger wheel with 60 teeth, and two teeth are lost on the trigger
wheel in actual use corresponding to a specified crankshaft position of cylinder 1. The CKP sensor records the
order of the trigger teeth. The CKP sensor is mounted at the exhaust side at the rear end of the crankshaft.

a. Fuel injector
In order to realize effective fuel injection beginning and accurate fuel injection, the common-rail system adopts
the special fuel injector with hydraulic servo system and electronic control element (solenoid valve). When the
fuel injection starts, the fuel injector requires a higher starting current, so that the solenoid valve can be opened
fast until the nozzle need valve reaches its maximum stroke and the nozzle is completely opened, the control
current will decreases to the smaller constant current. At this moment, the fuel injection depends on the opening
time and the pressure in the common-rail. When the solenoid valve is closed after work, the fuel supply is over.
The fuel injector can be divided into the following functional blocks:
1. Hole-type nozzle
2. Hydraulic servo system
3. Solenoid valve

Working manner:
The gear fuel delivery pump integrated with the high-pressure pump pumps fuel from the fuel tank via the
oil-water separation filter. The fuel in one line enters the pump chambers of fuel pump unit via the fuel absorption
valve, the drive shaft with an eccentric wheel drives the three pump plungers move up and down to realize the
purposes of fuel absorption and delivery. If the fuel delivery pressure exceeds the open pressure (0.5~1.5bar) of
the safety valve, the fuel delivery pump can let the fuel passes through the fuel absorption valve of the
high-pressure pump and enters the pump chambers of fuel pump unit. At this moment, the pump plunger moves
downward due to the fuel delivery pressure (fuel absorption process). When the plungers exceed the bottom dead
center, the fuel absorption valve is closed, and the fuel is compressed. When the pressure exceeds the output
pressure of the fuel delivery pump, the pressure in the common-rail will open the fuel outlet valve, the fuel enters
EC - 199
1.9 CTI Engine Maintenance Manual EC Engine control system
the high-pressure fuel line and is output, and the pump plungers will continue fuel supply till the top dead center
(fuel delivery stroke). When the pressure drops, the fuel outlet valve closes. The remaining fuel is decompressed;
the pump plungers moves downward. When the pressure in the pump chamber is below the fuel delivery pressure,
the fuel inlet valve opens again, the fuel pump process starts again, and the three plungers deliver fuel in turn. The
fuel in the other line from fuel delivery pump enters the lubrication and cooling fuel line of the high-pressure fuel
pump via the pressure relief valve, converges with the fuel return line of the fuel injector, and flows back to the
fuel tank.
2) The fuel inlet metering valve of the fuel metering unit is mounted at the high-pressure fuel inlet of the
high-pressure fuel pump and is used for regulating the fuel supply and the fuel pressure value, and the regulating
requirements is controlled by the ECU. The control coil of the metering valve is closed when not connected to cut
off the fuel supply for the plunger elements of the high-pressure fuel pump;
By changing the fuel inlet area of the metering element via the pulse signal, the ECU can increase or decrease the
fuel supply.

The main part of the glow plug is the tubular heating element.
The glow plug control instrument adopts the power relay and the electrical switch group to control the glow plug.
They control the heating time of glow plug and also has protection and monitoring functions. The more advanced
glow plug controller can identify the faults of separate glow plugs for its diagnostic function and displays the data
to the driver. The control input end of the glow plug controller is connected with the electronic control unit via a
multi-stage jack. To avoid the voltage drop, the series circuit connected with the glow plug uses the thread pin or
plug. The preheating and starting are controlled by the glow plug starting switch. When the key is at the “ON”
position, the preheating begins. When the heating control lamp goes out, the glow plug reaches sufficient
temperature, and the starting will begin. In the following starting process, the injected fuel is atomized and burns
in the compressed hot air, and the combustion process will begin with the released heat.
The post heating after start can form continuous speed acceleration and idling with less smoke during warming up,
thus combustion noise during cold start can be reduced. In case of start failure, the protection circuit of the glow
plug is disconnected to prevent over discharging of the battery.

Fault description:
The engine control unit uses the pulse signals of the crankshaft position (CKP) sensor and the camshaft position
(CMP) sensor to monitor the relevance between the CKP and the camshaft position. The crankshaft variable
reluctance rotor has 60 teeth, two of which are lost and served as reference clearance. The teeth interval is 6°
except the reference clearance which is 12°. The camshaft variable reluctance rotor has 1 tooth. When the
crankshaft rotates for 2 cycles (at this moment, the camshaft position actuator is in the start or stop position), the
engine control unit requires that the camshaft position sensor pulse signal should be in consistent with the internal
logical rule, otherwise, DTCs will be reported.
Diagnosis help:
For test of the engine control unit harness connector or component harness connector, use the diagnostic connector
test adaptor component.
Check the engine for recent repair on mechanical system. Improper installation of the camshaft, the camshaft
position sensor, the sensor vane, the crankshaft sensor, the target gear or the timing mark may cause setting of the
fault diagnostic code.

Fault description: The intake air temperature (IAT) sensor is a variable resistor for measuring air temperature in
the engine. The intake air temperature sensor has a signal circuit and a low reference voltage circuit. The engine
control unit provides 5V voltage for the intake air temperature sensor signal circuit and provides ground for the
intake air temperature sensor reference voltage circuit. When the intake air temperature sensor is in cold status, the
sensor resistance is very high. When the air temperature rises, the sensor resistance decreases. If the sensor
resistance is high, the ECU will detect that the voltage of intake air temperature sensor signal circuit is very high.
With the decrease of the sensor resistance, the voltage of the intake air temperature sensor signal circuit detected
by the ECU also reduces. If the intake air temperature signal voltage detected by ECU is too low (indicating that
the temperature is too high), and the signal voltage is too high (indicating that the temperature is too low), the
DTC shall be set.
Diagnosis help:
Test the intake air temperature sensor under different temperatures to evaluate the sensor for errors. In case of any
sensor error, performance fault may be caused. If the engine has been stopped for one night, the difference
between displayed values of the intake air temperature sensor and the engine coolant temperature sensor should be
within 3°C (5°F). Refer to “Temperature and resistance”. If the intake air temperature sensor signal circuit or the

the signal value input into the ECU in the voltage form decreases correspondingly. The voltage signal scope is
0-5V. The ECU searches the characteristic curve of the sensor and converts it into engine coolant temperature, the
diagnostic module of the engine coolant temperature sensor judges the faults according to the temperature. The

Fault description: The accelerator pedal assembly comprises two accelerator pedal position (APP) sensors which
are mounted on the pedal assembly and are unrepairable. The accelerator pedal position sensor provides a signal
voltage which varies with the accelerator pedal position. The engine control unit provides separate 5V reference
voltage circuit and low level reference voltage circuit for each accelerator pedal position sensor. After the pedal is
depressed, the signal voltage of the accelerator pedal position sensor 1 increases from about 0.7V in the free
position to above 4V when the pedal is fully depressed. After the pedal is depressed, the signal voltage of the
accelerator pedal position sensor 2 increases from about 0.3V in the free position to above 2V when the pedal is
fully depressed.
The accelerator pedal position (APP) sensors 1 and 2 are mounted in the accelerator pedal assembly. Each sensor
has the following circuits:
One 5V reference voltage circuit
One low reference voltage circuit
One signal circuit
Therefore, each sensor can provide the engine control unit with signal voltage proportional to the accelerator
pedal move. Two processors in the engine control unit are used for monitoring the throttle actuator control system
data. Both signal circuits provide the two processors with signal voltage proportional to the accelerator pedal
move. The two processors monitor each other’s data to verify whether the displayed accelerator pedal position
calculated value is correct or not. The method for the engine control unit to finish the test is: it reduces signal of
accelerator pedal position sensor 2 instantly to check whether the signal of sensor 1 reduces too.

Fault description: The main part of the glow plug is the tubular heating element. The heating element is mounted
in the glow plug shell and is solid and good in tightness, so that it is corrosion resistant and hot air shock resistant.
The heating element consists of two tandem resistance elements: a heating coil and a control coil which are
mounted at the sharp part of the heating pipe. The glow plug controller adopts a power relay and an electrical
switch group to control the glow plug. The power relay and the electrical switch group can control the heating
time of the glow plug and have the protecting and monitoring functions. A more advanced glow plug controller
can identify the faults of separate glow plugs for its diagnostic function and displays the data to the driver. The
control input end of the glow plug controller is connected with the electronic control unit via a multi-stage jack.
To avoid the voltage drop, the series circuit connected with the glow plug uses the thread pin or plug. The post
heating after start can form continuous speed acceleration and idling with less smoke during warming up, thus
combustion noise during cold start can be reduced. In case of start failure, the protection circuit of the glow plug is
disconnected to prevent over discharging of the battery. If the engine control unit did not detect any preheating

Fault description: The transmission control unit and the engine control unit are integrated to calculate the optimal
engagement time and speed of the clutch according to the sensor feedback information such as the accelerator
pedal, the transmission gears, the transmission input/output shaft speed, the engine speed, the valve opening, etc.
The actuating mechanism of the automatic clutch consists of the electric oil pump, the solenoid valve and the
clutch cylinder. When the ECU sends a command to drive the electric oil pump, the high-pressure oil generated by
the electric oil pump is delivered to the clutch cylinder through the solenoid valve. The ECU controls the
amperage of the solenoid valve to control the change of oil flow and gallery, thereby realizing the moving of the
clutch cylinder piston and accomplishing the clutch actions during start gear shift. When the clutch signal is
inconsistent with the actual condition, the engine control unit will set the DTC.

Fault description: The malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) is mounted on the instrument panel cluster (IPC) and is
used for informing the driver that fault exists and the engine system needs to be repaired. The control module
monitors the malfunction indicator lamp control circuit for the conditions inconsistent with the malfunction
indicator lamp command status. For example, if the malfunction indicator lamp is turned off by the command, the
control module detects the low-pressure; or, if the malfunction indicator lamp is turned on by the command, the
control module detects the high-pressure; these all indicate that there is fault. If the control module detects that the
voltage of the malfunction indicator lamp control circuit is incorrect or the temperature is too high, it will set the
DTC. For every 20 times sampling of the malfunction indicator lamp output status, open circuit or over high
temperature faults are detected during at least 15 times sampling. Every sampling takes 100 milliseconds. The
EC - 252
1.9 CTI Engine Maintenance Manual EC Engine control system
engine control unit detects that the drive output status of the malfunction indicator lamp is incorrect or the current
is excessive and lasts for above 2sec. For every 10 times sampling of the malfunction indicator lamp drive output
status, short circuit faults are detected during at least 5 times sampling. Every sampling takes 12.5 milliseconds.
The engine control unit detects that the drive output status circuit of the malfunction indicator lamp is shorted for
above 1sec. When the above conditions occur, the engine control unit will set the DTC.
Diagnosis help: When a short circuit is detected, the control module should stop starting the malfunction indicator
lamp drive during the remaining travel. The control module records the operation conditions during diagnosis
failure. When the diagnosis fails the first time, the control module saves the information in the fault record. If the
diagnosis fails again in the second continuous ignition cycle, the control module records the operation conditions
during diagnosis failure and writes the operation conditions in the frozen status and updates the fault record.

1.9 CTI Engine Maintenance Manual EC Engine control system
Fault description: The mass air flow (MAF) sensor is an air flow meter used for measuring the air mass flowing
into the engine. The engine control unit correctly provides fuel for the engine under all speed and load via the
mass air flow sensor signal. If the air mass flowing into the engine is little, it indicates that the vehicle is
decelerating or the engine is in idling status. If the air mass flowing into the engine is much, it indicates that the
vehicle is accelerating or the engine is in high load status.
The engine control unit applies voltage to the sensor via the signal circuit. By using the voltage, the sensor can
generate frequency corresponding to the intake air flows through the sensor. During idling, the frequency changes
within the scope around 2000Hz. The engine control unit calculates and predicts the mass air flow by using the
following sensor input signals:
BARO when the ignition key is connected
MAP sensor
Intake air temperature sensor
Engine coolant temperature sensor
Engine speed
The engine control unit compares the actual mass air flow sensor frequency signal with the predicted mass air
flow to determine whether the signal is stuck (lack of changes), too low or too high under given operation
conditions. If the engine control unit detects that the difference value of the actual mass air flow sensor frequency
signal and the predicted mass air flow is not in the preset scope, it will set the DTC.
Diagnosis help: Check the mass air flow sensor harness and confirm whether the arrangement of the harness is too
close to the following components:
— after-sale equipped fittings
— solenoid valve
— relay
— motor
During idling or deceleration, if the mass air flow of the sensor is the lowest, it will cause setting of the DTC.
Check the downstream of the mass air flow sensor for vacuum leakage. Check the mass air flow sensor element
for dirt or scraps. Check the intake system for water inlet. As long as there is water in the mass air flow sensor, the
sensor will deviate and sets the DTC. In case of full open of the valve during vehicle start and acceleration, the
mass air flow sensor parameter on the fault diagnostic instrument will increase rapidly, i.e., increasing from the
3-10g/sec during idling to 150g/sec during 1-2 gear shifting. If the parameter does not increase, please check the
intake system or the exhaust system for clogging.
Check the engine coolant temperature sensor for deviation or sticking.
If the voltage circuit resistance of the ignition 1 is too high (i.e. equal to or more than 15 Ohm), it will lead to
setting of the DTC.

Fault description: The air temperature sensor is a variable resistor for measuring air temperature flowed into the
engine. The air temperature sensor has a signal circuit and a low reference voltage circuit. The engine control unit
provides 5V voltage to the air temperature sensor signal circuit and provides grounding to the air temperature
sensor low reference voltage circuit. When the air temperature sensor is in cold status, the sensor resistance value
is very high. When the air temperature rises, the sensor resistance value decreases. With the decreases of the
sensor resistance value, the air temperature sensor signal circuit voltage detected by the ECU also reduces. If the
air temperature sensor signal circuit voltage detected by the ECU is too low (indicating that the temperature is too
high), or the signal voltage is too high (indicating the temperature is too low), the engine control unit will set the

Fault description: The fuel temperature sensor controls the signal voltage to the engine control unit via a negative
temperature coefficient thermistor, is mounted on the top of the fuel filter, can measure the fuel temperature, and
provides the fuel temperature status data to the engine control unit. The engine control unit applies the voltage to
the engine fuel temperature sensor. When the temperature of fuel flowing through the fuel filter changes, the
resistance of the engine fuel temperature sensor also change, so that the engine control unit will detect the
high/low voltage and the change. When the fuel temperature is too high (low) and the signal sending between the
fuel temperature sensor and the engine control unit is incorrect, the DTC will be set.
The differences among the temperature, the resistance and the voltage are shown in the following table:

helpful for confirming the position of the intermittent fault. Use the values in the “Temperature and Resistance”
table under various temperature conditions to check the engine fuel temperature, evaluate the drift and error of the
fuel temperature sensor as performance faults may be caused.

Fault description: The engine control unit determines when the engine misfire occurs by using information from
the ignition control (IC) module and the camshaft position (CMP) sensor. The engine control unit can detect
separate misfire via the crankshaft speed change of each cylinder. Under some operation conditions, too high
misfire rate will cause the three-way catalyst overheated. If so, the malfunction indicator lamp will flash. If the
engine control unit detects that the misfire rate makes the emission level exceeds the legal standard, the DTC will
be set. During two continuous ignition cycles, if the diagnostic operation fails to pass, the control module will turn
on the malfunction indicator lamp. The control module records the operation status during diagnosis failure. For
the first diagnosis failure, the control module saves the information in the fault record. For the following ignition
cycles, if the diagnosis failure still occurs, the control module will record the operation status during diagnosis
failure, write the operation status in the frozen fault status, and update the fault record.
Diagnosis help: Influence factor for misfire diagnosis-Misfire diagnosis requires that all vehicle components are in
mass production or equivalent status. All changes affecting the engine crankshaft speed will disturb the correct
diagnosis of misfire.
In case of the following component faults, the misfire diagnosis will be stopped to avoid incorrect diagnostic
results- reasonable faults of intake pressure/accelerator position; low voltage or open circuit of intake pressure
sensor line; high voltage of intake pressure sensor line; low voltage or open circuit of coolant temperature sensor
line; high voltage of coolant temperature sensor line; high voltage of valve position sensor; low voltage of valve
position sensor; signal interference of CKP sensor line; no signal of CKP sensor line; no signal of camshaft
position sensor; reasonable faults of camshaft position sensor; high voltage or open circuit of intake air
temperature sensor line; low voltage of intake air temperature sensor line; no signal of vehicle speed sensor.

Fault description: The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system is used for reducing emission of oxynitride
generated by high combustion temperature. The main component of the system is the EGR valve which delivers
little exhaust gas to the intake manifold to lower the combustion temperature. The recirculation exhaust is
controlled by the engine control unit according to the engine load change. The engine control unit tests the flow of
the EGR system during deceleration. Therefore, the engine control unit commands the EGR valve to open
instantly and monitors the signals of the manifold air pressure (MAP) sensor and the EGR position sensor. If the
MAP signal is inconsistent with the EGR valve spindle, the engine control unit records the detected MAP
difference and adjusts the corrected failure counter to the correction failure technical threshold value. As the
numbers of detected EGR flow errors are different, the test numbers of EGR flow required by exceeding the
failure counting threshold value may also be different. If the engine control unit detects the incorrect control
signal, it will set the DTC.
Diagnosis help: Check the engine control system; check the engine for fault history; check the EGR for the
following faults-whether there is vacuum leakage between the EGR valve and the intake manifold; if there is
carbon deposit around the component combination surface or there is exhaust noise, it generally indicates that
there is external leakage; check the channel and the EGR valve for clogging; check the exhaust system related
faults (for example: leakage due to exhaust component damage, clogging due to excessive backpressure and too
low engine vacuum); finally, check the mechanical system.

The engine control unit provides 5V voltage for the MAP sensor via the 5V reference voltage circuit, and the ECU
provides grounding via the low reference voltage circuit. The MAP sensor provides a signal to the ECU via the
signal circuit, and the signal is related with the pressure change in the intake manifold. When the ignition switch is
connected and the engine is shut down, the signal displayed by the MAP sensor is the BARO signal. Operate the
engine when the valve is fully open, the BARO reading will update. The ECU determines whether the voltage
exceeds the normal scope by detecting the MAP sensor signal. When the MAP sensor is displaying the BARO, if
the detected signal voltage is not in the specified scope, the DTC will be set.
Diagnosis help: When the ignition switch is connected and the engine is shut down, the intake manifold pressure
equals the BARO, and the signal voltage is the low level. The engine control unit uses the information as the
indication for the vehicle altitude. Comparing the reading with intact vehicles equipped with same sensors is a

flowing in the cylinder increases, the engine control unit increases the pulse width of the fuel injector, so that
additional fuel can be supplied during acceleration to meet the needs of engine acceleration. The brake switch is a
normally open switch. When the brake pedal is depressed, the switch is closed to provide voltage for the
transmission control unit and finish the brake application. During driver’s operation, due to operation errors, the

down and the ignition switch is connected, the engine control unit performs self diagnosis procedure. When the
diagnosis procedure fails, the control module records the operation status and saves the information in the “fault
