1 second. Therefore, battery voltage is not supplied to
the fuel pump, ignition coil, fuel injectors and heated
oxygen sensors.
ENGINE START-UP MODE
This is an OPEN LOOP mode. If the vehicle is in
park or neutral (automatic transaxles) or the clutch
pedal is depressed (manual transaxles) the ignition
switch energizes the starter relay when the engine is
not running. The following actions occur when the
starter motor is engaged.
• If the PCM receives the camshaft position sensor
and crankshaft position sensor signals, it energizes
the Auto Shutdown (ASD) relay and fuel pump relay.
If the PCM does not receive both signals within
approximately one second, it will not energize the
ASD relay and fuel pump relay. The ASD and fuel
pump relays supply battery voltage to the fuel pump,
fuel injectors, ignition coil, (EGR solenoid and PCV
heater if equipped) and heated oxygen sensors.
• The PCM energizes the injectors (on the 69°
degree falling edge) for a calculated pulse width until
it determines crankshaft position from the camshaft
position sensor and crankshaft position sensor sig-
nals. The PCM determines crankshaft position within
1 engine revolution.
• After determining crankshaft position, the PCM
begins energizing the injectors in sequence. It adjusts
injector pulse width and controls injector synchroni-
zation by turning the individual ground paths to the
injectors On and Off.
• When the engine idles within ±64 RPM of its
target RPM, the PCM compares current MAP sensor
value with the atmospheric pressure value received
during the Ignition Switch On (zero RPM) mode.
Once the ASD and fuel pump relays have been
energized, the PCM determines injector pulse width
based on the following:
• MAP
• Engine RPM
• Battery voltage
• Engine coolant temperature
• Inlet/Intake air temperature (IAT)
• Throttle position
• The number of engine revolutions since cranking
was initiated
During Start-up the PCM maintains ignition tim-
ing at 9° BTDC.
ENGINE WARM-UP MODE
This is an OPEN LOOP mode. The following inputs
are received by the PCM:
• Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP)
• Crankshaft position (engine speed)
• Engine coolant temperature
• Inlet/Intake air temperature (IAT)
• Camshaft position
• Knock sensor
• Throttle position
• A/C switch status
• Battery voltage
• Vehicle speed
• Speed control
• O2 sensors
The PCM adjusts injector pulse width and controls
injector synchronization by turning the individual
ground paths to the injectors On and Off.
The PCM adjusts ignition timing and engine idle
speed. Engine idle speed is adjusted through the idle
air control motor.
CRUISE OR IDLE MODE
When the engine is at operating temperature this
is a CLOSED LOOP mode. During cruising or idle
the following inputs are received by the PCM:
• Manifold absolute pressure
• Crankshaft position (engine speed)
• Inlet/Intake air temperature
• Engine coolant temperature
• Camshaft position
• Knock sensor
• Throttle position
• Exhaust gas oxygen content (O2 sensors)
• A/C switch status
• Battery voltage
• Vehicle speed
The PCM adjusts injector pulse width and controls
injector synchronization by turning the individual
ground paths to the injectors On and Off.
The PCM adjusts engine idle speed and ignition
timing. The PCM adjusts the air/fuel ratio according
to the oxygen content in the exhaust gas (measured
by the upstream and downstream heated oxygen sen-
sor).
The PCM monitors for engine misfire. During
active misfire and depending on the severity, the
PCM either continuously illuminates or flashes the
malfunction indicator lamp (Check Engine light on
instrument panel). Also, the PCM stores an engine
misfire DTC in memory, if 2nd trip with fault.
The PCM performs several diagnostic routines.
They include:
• Oxygen sensor monitor
• Downstream heated oxygen sensor diagnostics
during open loop operation (except for shorted)
• Fuel system monitor
• EGR monitor (if equipped)
• Purge system monitor
• Catalyst efficiency monitor
• All inputs monitored for proper voltage range,
rationality.
