Introduction to the 6.0L • • • • Engine Specifications Cooling System Oil Circuit Cam Phasing General Information The Vortec 6.0 liter Gen IV is a small block V8 gasoline engine. It is available as an option in Isuzu’s Low Cab Forward Design N Series Truck for 2012. This vehicle comes in two gross vehicle weight ratings; NPR 12,000 pounds and NPR-Heavy Duty 14,500 pounds . This engine produces 297 horse power at 4300 rpm and 372 foot pounds of torque at 4000 rpm. The engine is mated to a new 6L90-E 6-speed Hydramatic transmission with double overdrive and lockup torque converter that improves both vehicle performance and fuel economy. 4 6.0L Engine Specifications Engine Specifications The RPO code for the 6.0 liter V8 gasoline engine is L96. The RPO code for the alternate fuel option is LC8. This engine features: • sequential fuel injection • coil-near-plug electronic ignition system • compression ratio of 9.6 to1 • firing order 1-8-7-2-6-5-4-3 Refer to the service information for additional specifications. 5 6.0L Gas Engine Maintenance Schedule Maintenance Schedule Under ordinary driving conditions, engine oil and filter service intervals should be every 7,500 miles, or 12,000 km, or 12 months, whichever comes first. A vehicle operated under severe conditions, such as frequent short trips, extended low-speed engine operation or towing requires more frequent maintenance. In this case, engine oil and filter service intervals should be every 3,000 miles, or 4,800 km, or 3 months, whichever comes first. The fuel filter is part of the fuel pump module and is not serviced separately. The engine coolant service life is 50,000 miles and the ignition system has a maintenance-free 100,000 mile service life. The long-life timing chain for this engine is designed with a leaf-spring type dampener which maintains tension to give the chain a smooth and quiet operation for the life of the engine. 6 The Cooling System Cooling System The 6.0 liter engine cooling system uses DEX-COOL. The thermostat is located in the inlet of the water pump which reduces thermal cycling and results in a more consistent warm-up. The normal operating range of the thermostat is between 188°F (87°C) and 206°F (97°C). 7 Coolant Air Bleed Ports and Hose Radiator Entrance Port Left Cylinder Head Bleed Port Right Cylinder Head Bleed Port Coolant Air Bleed Ports There are two air bleed ports; one at the front of each cylinder head. Coolant flows from the cylinder heads, through these ports, to the radiator. This helps eliminate any vapor pockets which can interfere with cooling system performance. 8 Coolant Temperature Sensors RCT is in Lower Radiator Hose ECT is in left cylinder head near front of engine Coolant Temperature Sensors The Radiator Coolant Temperature Sensor or (RCT) is located in the lower radiator hose. The ECM uses RCT sensor data for diagnostic purposes only. The Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor or (ECT) is located in the left cylinder head near the front of the engine. The ECM uses ECT Sensor data to calculate air-fuel mixture, ignition timing, and fuel injector pulse width. The ECT Sensor also provides information for the engine temperature gauge. The ECT and RCT Sensors have to be within a predetermined value that is calculated internally by the ECM or a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set. 9 Oil Flow Circuit Oil Flow Circuit Engine lubrication is supplied by a gearrotor type oil pump assembly mounted on the front of the engine block and driven directly by the crankshaft sprocket. The pressure relief valve is in the oil pump assembly and the Oil Pressure Sensor is located at the top rear of the engine. Pressurized oil is sent through the engine block to the full flow Oil Filter and on to the upper main oil galleys, supplying oil throughout the engine assembly. Oil entering the center of the camshaft at journal location #2, feeds the Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Valve which controls cam phasing. Minimum oil pressure on a hot engine should be 6 psi at 1000 rpm and 24 psi at 4000 rpm. Maximum oil pressure is 55- 75 psi. Oil pressure readings are taken at the Oil Pressure Sensor location. 10 Camshaft Phasing Camshaft Phasing Cam Phasing, sometimes referred to as Variable Valve Timing, is one of the unique features of this engine. Using the Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator System, which is controlled by the ECM, valve timing can be changed resulting in significant performance benefits. • By advancing camshaft timing, an improvement in low end torque can be achieved. • By retarding camshaft timing slightly, an improvement in high end power can be achieved. • By retarding camshaft timing significantly, an improvement in light load fuel economy can be achieved. 11 Camshaft Phasing Camshaft Phasing (Cont’d) The Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator changes valve timing relative to piston timing but does not change duration or lift. The Actuator has a 52 degree range of control. With the engine not running and no oil pressure to the CMP Actuator, the high tension spring positions camshaft timing at the 7 degrees advanced spark position. Based on performance requirements, the ECM may adjust camshaft timing, within a range from 7 degrees advanced to 45 degrees retard. Note that the camshaft moves in the opposite direction of Actuator. 12 CMP Actuator Valve Operation CMP Actuator Valve Oil flows from the camshaft into the CMP Actuator Valve inlet past an internal check ball and through a filter. Oil exits the #2 valve port and travels within the internal passages of the camshaft into the entry ports #7 of the Actuator. The center oil groove of the Actuator is pressurized and oil reenters the Valve at #1 port. The electromagnetic force on the solenoid pintle controls the Spool Valve position, directing oil out of either the Valve advance port #3 or retard port #4 to the Actuator. Under certain conditions, the Valve will be in a neutral position with no flow to either the advance or retard passages of the Actuator. Note that incorrect engine oil viscosity, aftermarket engine oil additives, or low oil level can greatly affect the performance of the Actuator. Engine oil that is overdue for changing may cause the Spool Valve filter to become plugged. This can cause a performance issue and Diagnostic Trouble Codes to set. 13 CMP Actuator Solenoid Magnet CMP Actuator Solenoid Magnet The Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator Magnet is located in the engine front cover and is sealed by a gasket. The CMP Actuator Solenoid is controlled by a 12-volt, 150 Hz pulse width, 0–100 percent duty cycle signal from the ECM. When energized, the Solenoid uses electromagnetic force on the magnet pintle to position the Spool Valve of the CMP Actuator Valve. CMP Actuator System Performance Diagnostics The ECM monitors the performance of the CMP Actuator system by monitoring the calibrated desired position, and the actual position of the camshaft. If the desired position and the actual position are to far out of range of each other the ECM sets a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). 14 Inside the Actuator Inside the CMP Actuator The pressurized engine oil entering the Camshaft Position (CMP) Actuator unseats the park pin, and enters the vane and rotor assembly. There are 5 cavities, each divided by vanes within the Actuator: • When the Valve is wide open, oil is directed to the retard cavities, rotating the camshaft counter clockwise, retarding valve timing. • When the Valve is partially open, oil is directed to the advance cavities, rotating the camshaft clockwise, advancing valve timing. When the Valve is closed, oil is directed to both cavities, and the Actuator is held stationary. 15 CMP Actuator Solenoid Circuit CMP Actuator Solenoid Circuit The Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid is an electro-magnetic device. The ECM sends a pulse width modulated, 12-volt signal to the CMP Actuator Solenoid to control the amount of pressurized engine oil that flows into the Actuator Valve. A low reference circuit or ground wire between the CMP Actuator solenoid and the ECM completes the electrical circuit. To calculate the optimum valve timing, the ECM uses the following inputs: • Engine speed (RPM) • Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP/BARO) • Mass Air Flow (MAF) • Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) • Throttle Position (TP) angle • Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor • Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor • Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) • Engine Oil Pressure (EOP) 16 CMP Actuator Solenoid Circuit Reluctor and Sprocket It’s important to keep the Reluctor and Sprocket together after removing from engine. The Reluctor wheel is mounted to the Actuator body with three (3) roll pins. Install tie wrap to retain the Reluctor wheel to the Sprocket. 17 6.0L V8 Gas Engine Driveability Module 1, Section 2 2. Air Induction System • • • • Intake Air Flow Mass Air Flow Sensor Positive Crankcase Ventilation Throttle Actuator Control 18 Air Induction System Throttle Body MAF/IAT Sensor Air Induction System Outside air is drawn in through the air cleaner assembly, then routed through the Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor to the throttle body, then to the intake manifold on its way to the cylinders. The Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor is integrated into the MAF Sensor. 19 Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor IAT Sensor Mass Air Flow Sensor The MAF Sensor measures the amount of air entering the engine. The ECM uses the MAF Sensor signals to provide the correct fuel delivery for all engine speeds and loads. A faulty MAF Sensor Signal due to loose connections, bad grounds, high resistance in the circuit, or an open in the circuit can cause the following symptoms: • A no start condition • Stalls at idle • Surging idle • Extended crank time when engine is cold • Hesitation, Stumble, or Chuggle • Poor fuel economy The ECM uses the Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP), Intake Air Temperature (IAT), Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensors and engine RPM, to calculate a predicted mass air flow value and compares it to the actual MAF Sensor signal. If it is not within a predetermined range, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) will set. Note: When installing the MAF, be sure the arrow is pointing in the direction of air flow, towards the engine. 20 MAF and IAT Sensor Circuits MAF and IAT Sensor Circuits The Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor has a five wire connector. The 12 volt feed powers the Sensor which produces a frequency signal based on air flow. There is a 5 volt MAF Signal wire and ground connecting to the ECM. There is also a 5 volt signal and ground wire for the Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor. This is a variable resistor sensor which measures the temperature of the air entering the engine. 21 Positive Crankcase Ventilation PCV Port Intake manifold PCV Port Positive Crankcase Ventilation System This engine uses a closed crankcase ventilation system to provide a more complete scavenging of crankcase vapors. The Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) System controls the blow-by gasses as they are drawn into the intake manifold and burned, instead of vented to the atmosphere. There is no PCV check valve and filter, only a calibrated orifice in the valve cover. The PCV should be inspected and cleaned at recommended maintenance intervals. If the PCV system clogs, it will affect crankcase pressures, cause oil consumption and possible engine performance concerns. 22 Throttle Actuator Control • Senses throttle pedal position • Positions throttle blade • Senses throttle position • Cruise control Throttle Actuator Control Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) system delivers improved throttle response and eliminates the need for a mechanical cable. The system consists of: • The Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensors, which sends the pedal position information to the ECM. • The Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Motor, which is controlled by the ECM and positions the throttle blade to meet driver and engine demand. • The Throttle Position (TP) Sensors, which are an additional input to the ECM to assure accuracy and reliability. The System also controls the functions of Cruise Control. The ECM commands the TAC Motor to maintain the vehicle speed “set” by the driver. 23 Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor The Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensor is mounted on the accelerator pedal assembly. The APP Sensor consists of two individual sensors within one housing and is used to determine accelerator pedal angle and driver input. 24 Accelerator Pedal Position Circuit Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor Circuit The Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) sensors 1 and 2 are both potentiometer type sensors. Each sensor has three wires: a 5-volt reference circuit supplied by the ECM, a low reference circuit (Ground) and the signal circuit. 25 Output volts APP Sensor Graph Throttle Opening % Accelerator Pedal Position Sensor Graph The Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensor 1 voltage increases as the accelerator pedal is depressed, from below 1.0 volt at 0 pedal travel to above 4 volts at 100 percent pedal travel. APP Sensor 2 voltage increases at half the rate of APP Sensor 1, from above 0.43 volts at 0 pedal travel to above 2 volts at 100 percent pedal travel. The additional sensor is redundant. The ECM constantly compares the two values. If there is a discrepancy the ECM sets a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). 26 Throttle Actuator Control Circuit Throttle Position Sensor and Throttle Actuator Control Circuits There are two separate sensors to signal the throttle position as well. The Throttle Position (TP) Sensors are potentiometer type sensors and provide the ECM with information about the actual throttle plate angle. The ECM supplies a 5 volt reference that is shared by Throttle Position Sensors 1 and 2. The Sensors also have a shared ground to the ECM. Each sensor sends a separate signal back to the ECM. The ECM determines the driver’s intent by way of the Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Signals and then calculates the appropriate throttle response. The ECM provides a pulse width modulated voltage to the Throttle Actuator Control Motor to position the throttle to the desired position. The TP Sensors provide feedback that the position is correct. 27 Output volts TP Sensor Graph Throttle Opening % Throttle Position Sensor Graph The Throttle Position (TP) Sensors provide the ECM with a signal voltage proportional to throttle plate movement. TP sensor 1 signal voltage at closed throttle is approx. 3.5 volts and decreases as the throttle plate is opened. The TP sensor 2 signal voltage at closed throttle is approx. 1.5 volts and increases as the throttle plate is opened. The ECM constantly compares the two values, if there is a discrepancy the ECM sets a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC). 28 Throttle Actuator Modes Throttle Actuator Modes The throttle body functions similar to a conventional throttle body even though an electric motor opens and closes the throttle blade, instead of a cable. The throttle blade is spring loaded in both directions and the default position is slightly open. At key-up, the ECM updates the learned minimum throttle value position. To do this the throttle blade is momentarily moved to the fully closed position when the ignition key is first turned to the on position. If the throttle is not able to reach a predetermined minimum throttle position, the Ice Break Mode is entered. In this mode, the ECM commands the maximum pulse width several times to the Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Motor in the closing direction. Warning: To avoid injury, keep fingers away from the throttle blade when the harness is connected to the TAC Motor. Battery Saver Mode - When the ECM does not receive an engine RPM signal after a predetermined time, the ECM removes the voltage from the TAC motor circuit. This eliminates the current draw used to maintain the idle position and allows the throttle to return to the spring loaded default position. 29 Reduced Engine Power Mode Reduced Engine Power Mode When the ECM detects a fault with the Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) System, such as a Accelerator Pedal Position or Throttle Position Sensor malfunction, the ECM may enter a Reduced Engine Power Mode and the instrument panel indicator light will illuminate. In this mode, one or more of the following conditions will occur: Acceleration limiting—The ECM will continue to use the accelerator pedal input for throttle control, however, the vehicle acceleration is limited. Limited throttle mode—The ECM will continue to use the accelerator pedal input for throttle control, however, the maximum throttle opening is limited. Throttle default mode—The ECM will turn OFF the TAC Motor and the throttle will return to the spring loaded default position. Forced idle mode—The ECM will perform the following actions: • • Limit engine speed to idle by positioning the throttle, or by controlling the fuel and spark if the TAC is turned OFF. Ignore the accelerator pedal input. Engine shutdown —The ECM will disable fuel and de-energize the TAC. 30 Throttle Learn Mode 6.0L V8 Gas Engine Driveability Module 1, Section 3 3. Fuel Injection System • • • • • • Returnless Fuel System Fuel Pump Module Fuel Injector Fuel Pump Circuit Fuel Injection Modes Enhanced Evaporative Emissions Control Throttle Learn Mode The ECM learns the airflow through the throttle body to ensure the correct idle. The learned airflow values are stored within the ECM. These values are learned to adjust for production variation and continuously learned during the life of the vehicle to compensate for reduced airflow due to coking. Anytime the throttle body airflow rate changes, for example due to cleaning or replacing, the values must be relearned. A new ECM will have values set to zero and will also have to go through a learning procedure. If the learned values do not match the actual airflow, the idle may be unstable or a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) may set. It may take several drive cycles for the ECM to “learn” the correct values. Throttle Learn Procedure To accelerate the process, use the scan tool to perform the Throttle Learn Procedure. To perform Throttle Learn Procedure without a scan tool, run the engine in park for 3 minutes. After a 3 minute run time the engine should be idling normally. If the engine idle speed has not been learned, the vehicle will need to be driven at speeds above 44 mph or 70 km/h with several decelerations and extended idles. After following this drive cycle, the engine should be idling normally. 31 6.0L V8 Gas Engine Driveability Module 1, Section 3 2. Fuel Injection System • • • • • • Returnless Fuel System Fuel Pump Module Fuel Injector Fuel Pump Circuit Fuel Metering Modes Enhanced Evaporative Emissions Control 32 Returnless Fuel System Returnless Fuel System The fuel system is a returnless, on-demand design consisting of the following: • Fuel Tank • Fuel Fill Pipe • Filler Cap • Modular Fuel Pump Assembly • Fuel Rail Assembly • Injectors 33 Modular Fuel Pump Assembly Modular Fuel Pump Assembly The Modular Fuel Pump Assembly consists of the following: • The Fuel Level Sensor and Sender • Fuel Pump • Fuel Pressure Regulator • Fuel Filter • Fuel pump Flex Lines Note that the Fuel Pump Module is serviced as a complete unit and there is no fuel filter replacement. 34 Modular Fuel Pump Assembly Components Fuel Pump Fuel Pressure Regulator Fuel Filter Fuel Pump Flex Lines Modular Fuel Pump Assembly Components The Fuel Pump is an electric turbine style pump which supplies high pressure fuel through the fuel filter and the feed pipe to the fuel injection system. The ECM controls fuel pump operation through a fuel pump relay. The Flex Lines dampen fuel pulses and noise generated by the pump. The fuel pump also supplies fuel to a venturi pump located on the bottom of the fuel sender assembly. The function of the venturi pump is to fill the sender assembly reservoir. The fuel pump assembly contains a reverse flow check valve. The check valve and fuel pressure regulator maintain fuel pressure in the feed pipe and fuel rail to prevent long cranking times. 35 Modular Fuel Pump Assembly Internal View Fuel Pump Modular Housing Fuel Filter Fuel Pressure Regulator Fuel Pump and Strainer Fuel Pump Assembly Internal View The Fuel Filter, Pump and Strainer are contained in the modular fuel pump assembly housing inside the fuel tank. There is no service interval for the fuel filter and it is not serviced separately. The Fuel Pressure Regulator is also part of the Modular Fuel Pump assembly, eliminating the need for a return pipe from the engine. The Fuel Pressure Regulator has a spring loaded check ball that bleeds off fuel inside the tank to maintain the specified fuel rail pressure. With the ignition ON and engine not running, fuel pressure at the Fuel Pressure Test Service Valve should be between 50-60 psi. 36 Fuel Pump Circuit Fuel Pump Circuit The ECM controls the fuel pump operation through a Fuel Pump Relay. When the ignition switch is first turned ON, the ECM applies 12 volts to the Fuel Pump Relay, which closes the 12 volt circuit to the Fuel Pump. The ECM enables the Fuel Pump Relay as long as the engine is cranking or running, and crankshaft reference pulses are received. If no crankshaft reference pulses are received after 2 seconds, the ECM turns off the Fuel Pump Relay. The ECM also monitors the voltage on the Fuel Pump Relay control circuit. If it detects an incorrect voltage, a DTC will set. 37 Fuel Injectors, Rail, and Pressure Test Connection Fuel Injector Fuel Pressure Test Service Valve Fuel Injectors, Rail and Pressure Test Connection The fuel injectors meter pressurized fuel for each engine cylinder. The ECM energizes the injector solenoid to open a normally closed ball valve. This allows the fuel to flow into the top of the injector, past the ball valve, and through a director plate at the injector outlet. The director plate has machined holes that control the fuel flow, generating a spray of finely atomized fuel at the injector tip. Fuel from the injector tip is directed at the intake valve, causing the fuel to become further atomized and vaporized before entering the combustion chamber. This fine atomization improves fuel economy and emissions. The Fuel Pressure Test Service Valve is located on the passenger side fuel rail. Fuel pressure can be checked by attaching a gauge to this valve. 38 Fuel Injector Control Circuits Fuel Injector Control Circuit Each Injector has an internal Solenoid that is controlled by the ECM. The ECM energizes the Injector Solenoid by providing a ground path for each Injector. The Fuel Injectors are sequentially controlled by the ECM. The ECM controls the “ON” time of each Injector by pulse width modulation which allows the ECM to deliver the precise amount of fuel needed for performance, optimum fuel economy, and reduced emissions. The ECM uses many inputs to adjust fuel delivery. The main inputs include engine RPM, Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT), Intake Air Temperature (IAT), Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP), Mass Air Flow (MAF), Accelerator Pedal Position (APP), Throttle Position (TP), and Heated Oxygen Sensors (HO2S). 39 Fuel Metering Modes Cranking/ Starting Mode Run Mode ECM Fuel Trim Mode Fuel Metering Modes The ECM monitors specific inputs to determine the correct fuel needed for different modes of engine operation. By changing the injector pulse width, the ECM can deliver the precise amount of fuel needed for performance and fuel economy. These fuel delivery modes are described as: • Cranking/Starting Mode • Run Mode • And Fuel Trim 40 Starting/ Cranking Mode 12V Ignition Starter Relay ECT/IAT Fuel Pump Relay APP/TPS MAP/BARO ECM Fuel Injectors (Pulse Width Modulated) Crank Signal RPM VTD signal from PIM Starting /Cranking Mode When the ignition is turned to the ON position, before cranking, the ECM energizes the Fuel Pump Relay for 2 seconds. This allows the Fuel Pump to run and build pressure in the Fuel Rail. The ECM takes readings from the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor, Throttle Position (TP) Sensor and Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor, which provides a barometric pressure reading. Using these inputs, the ECM first checks air density, then switches to the MAF Sensor to determine appropriate fuel delivery needed for starting the engine during cranking. Cranking Mode: When the ignition switch is placed in the START position, a discrete 12-volt signal is supplied to the Powertrain Interface Module (PIM) notifying it that the ignition is in the start position. The PIM then sends a message to the ECM notifying it that CRANK has been requested. The ECM verifies proper Vehicle Theft Deterrent (VTD) security message from the PIM and verifies from the TCM that the transmission is in Park or Neutral. If all conditions are met the ECM then supplies a ground signal to the control circuit of the Start Relay. When this occurs, battery positive voltage is supplied through the switch side of the Start Relay to the S terminal of the Starter Solenoid. 41 Run Mode_Open Loop ECT Fuel Pump Relay TPS MAP Fuel Injectors (Pulse Width Modulated) ECM MAF RPM Internal Timer ( ) Run Mode – Open Loop After start up, the fuel control mode is in Open Loop. Once the engine is started and the engine is above a predetermined RPM, the ECM calculates fuel delivery based on the Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor, Throttle Position (TP) Sensor, Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor and Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor readings. Once the Oxygen Sensors are warmed up and providing a signal, which can occur in under 90 seconds, the system goes into Closed Loop. 42 Run Mode_Closed Loop ECT Fuel Pump Relay TPS MAP Fuel Injectors (Pulse Width Modulated) ECM MAF RPM Heated Oxygen Sensors Run Mode - Closed Loop In Closed Loop, the oxygen sensors provide constant feedback to the ECM, which adjusts the fuel delivery to maintain as close to 14.7:1 air/fuel ratio as possible. This is desired air/fuel ratio for optimum catalytic converter operation and minimum emissions. In this mode, the ECM constantly fine tunes the fuel delivery in response to the Oxygen Sensor signals. This is referred to as Fuel Trim. When the ECM determines that the Fuel Trim is beyond normal operating range, a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) is set. Fuel Trim will be covered in more detail in the 6.0 liter Driveability Diagnostic Course, Module II. 43 Enhanced EVAP System EVAP Purge Solenoid EVAP Vapor Pipe EVAP Test Port Enhanced Evaporative Emissions Control System All vehicles are now equipped with an Enhanced Evaporative Emissions Control (EVAP) System. The Enhanced EVAP system limits fuel vapors from escaping into the atmosphere. The system consists of a Charcoal Canister, Purge Solenoid, Vent Solenoid and a Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor. As fuel tank vapors build up, they are routed through the vapor lines and absorbed by charcoal pellets in the EVAP Canister. Under certain running conditions, the ECM will turn on the EVAP Purge Solenoid, which is normally closed, which opens a valve and allows engine vacuum to be applied to the EVAP Canister. 44 Enhanced EVAP System Vent Solenoid Valve EVAP Canister Vent Solenoid Enhanced Evaporative Emissions System (EVAP) Vent Solenoid, which is normally open, remains OFF allowing fresh air to be drawn through the Solenoid and Vent line to the EVAP Canister. This allows the fuel vapors to be pulled from the Canister and drawn into the Intake Manifold to be burned during normal combustion. If excess pressure builds up in the system, it is vented through the EVAP Vent Solenoid to the atmosphere. Note: The Solenoid is activated for diagnostic purposes only. 45 Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor Fuel Tank Pressure Sensor The Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) sensor is located on the top of the Fuel Pump assembly unit. It measures the difference between the pressure and vacuum in the Fuel Tank and outside air pressure. The ECM provides a 5-volt reference and a ground to the FTP sensor. The Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor provides a signal voltage back to the ECM. A high sensor voltage indicates a low Fuel Tank pressure or vacuum. A low sensor voltage indicates a high Fuel Tank pressure. Under Certain conditions, the ECM tests the EVAP system for leaks. When the engine is running it monitors the system for large leaks. The ECM performs a small leak test by monitoring the FTP sensor for up to 40 minutes once the ignition key is in the off position. The system is designed to detect leaks as small as .020 in. pin hole and will cause a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) to set. 46 6.0L V8 Gas Engine Driveability Module 1, Section 4 4. Electronic Ignition System • • • • Coil-near-Plug Crank Sensor Cam Sensor Knock Sensor 47 The Electronic Ignition System Sequential Ignition Coils IGN. Coil #8 IGN. Coil #6 IGN. Coil #4 IGN. Coil #2 Ignition Coil Harness Connector Electronic Ignition System The Electronic Ignition System of the 6.0L engine is known as coil-near-plug. It consists of a separate ignition coil with a short secondary wire connected to a spark plug for each cylinder. 48 Ignition System Circuit Ignition System Circuit Each Ignition Coil primary circuit is connected to an ignition voltage feed and ground. Each of the coil assemblies also has a driver module that is commanded ON and OFF by the ECM. When the ECM turns the Ignition Circuit (IC) ON, current flows through the primary coil windings. When the ECM commands the IC circuit OFF, this interrupts current flow through the primary coil windings. This causes the magnetic field to collapse across the secondary coil windings, sending high voltage through the short spark plug wire to the spark plug electrodes. The spark plug electrodes are tipped with iridium for longer life. The recommended maintenance interval for the spark plugs and wires is 100,000 miles. 49 Crankshaft Position Sensor Crankshaft Position Sensor The Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor is located on the right side of the block behind the starter. The ECM uses the crankshaft and camshaft position sensors, along with various other inputs, to determine firing sequence, dwell, and timing of the spark event. The CKP information is also used to sequence fuel injection, detect cylinder misfire, and the camshaft to crankshaft relative position. Note: The starter assembly must be removed to gain access to CKP sensor. 50 The Reluctor Wheel The Reluctor Wheel Crankshaft Reluctor Wheel is the trigger for the Crankshaft Position Sensor. Each tooth on the Reluctor Wheel is spaced at 6 degrees apart from each other, for a total of 60-tooth spacing around the circumference of the wheel. The crankshaft Reluctor Wheel has two missing teeth, creating 12 degrees of spacing, which is used for the reference or sync pulse. The sync pulse is used by the ECM to synchronize the coil firing with the crankshaft position, while the other teeth provide cylinder location during each crankshaft revolution. 51 CKP Wiring Circuit Crankshaft Position Sensor Circuit The Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor is a three wire, hall effect type sensor. The ECM supplies 5 volts and ground. The third wire is the low 5 volt reference output circuit that provides a crank reference signal to the ECM 52 CKP System Variation Learn Crankshaft Position Sensor Variation Learn If the Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor or the ECM is replaced, or any engine repairs that disturb CKP to Reluctor Wheel relationship, the CKP System Variation Learn Procedure must be performed. This procedure must also be performed if the crankshaft or engine is replaced as well. The Variation Learn procedure is performed using a scan tool. See the service information for more information. It is important to follow the exact test criteria from the scan tool. The ECM needs to see brake pedal input during the CKP Learn Procedure. 53 Camshaft Position Sensor Camshaft Position Sensor The Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor is located in the front timing gear cover next to the Camshaft Position Actuator Magnet. The Camshaft Position information, along with the Crankshaft Position Sensor information is used to determine the correct time and sequence for fuel injection, ignition spark events, detect cylinder misfire, and the camshaft to crankshaft relative position. 54 CMP Wiring Circuit Camshaft Position Sensor Circuit The Camshaft Position Sensor is a three wire, hall effect type sensor. The ECM supplies 5 volts and ground. The third wire is the low reference output circuit that provides the cam reference signal to the ECM. This is the same sensor used for the Camshaft Phasing. 55 Knock Sensor Knock Sensors There are two Knock Sensors. Knock Sensor 1 is located on the left side and Knock Sensor 2 is located on the right side of the engine block, in the center just above the oil pan. 56 Knock Sensor Circuit Knock Sensor Circuits The ECM receives the knock sensor signals through two isolated circuits. Each sensor produces an AC voltage that varies, depending on the vibration levels detected during engine operation. The ECM monitors these signals and adjusts the spark timing based on the amplitude and frequency of each sensor signal. The knock sensor system enables the ECM to control the ignition timing for the best possible performance while protecting the engine from potentially damaging levels of detonation. 57 6.0L V8 Gas Engine Driveability Module 1, Section 5 5. ECM and On-board System Communications • • • • • ECM, TCM, PIM and IPC ECM inputs and outputs Powertrain Interface Module PIM Quick Learn Procedure ECM Programming 58 Module Communications Module Communications This 6.0L system includes a number of modules that communicate using a serial data bus. These modules include the ECM, Powertrain Interface Module (PIM), Transmission Control Module (TCM) and the Anti-lock Brakes System (ABS) Module. The PIM also communicates with the Instrument Panel Cluster or IPC. The control modules communicate with each other and the diagnostic scan tool equipment, using the ISO 15765 serial data bus. This is referred to as the CAN Bus, which stands for Controller Area Network and is a Dual Wire, High Speed communication link. The ABS module transmits data to the PIM via the J1939 Bus. The PIM will translate the information and places the information on the ISO 15765 bus. If communication is lost, a DTC specific for each individual module will set. 59 Data Link Connector (DLC) Data Link Connector The scan tool connects to the Data Link Connector or DLC and communicates with the various modules on Pins 6 and 14 of the DLC using the ISO 15765 serial data bus. The ABS module communicates via class 2, J1850 communication bus. The class 2 Bus is a single wire bus communicating on Pin 2 of the DLC. 60 Powertrain Interface Module (PIM) Power train Interface Module (PIM) Powertrain Interface module The Powertrain Interface module (PIM) is located behind the right side of the instrument panel, under the glove compartment. Discrete inputs from the ECM, Transmission Control Module (TCM) and the Antilock Brake System (ABS) Module are routed to the PIM, which operates the appropriate lamps or gauges in the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC). The PIM contains software that functions as the Vehicle Theft Deterrent (VTD). This is a password security check that is performed by the PIM before the engine is allowed to crank. When the ignition switch has been turned to the RUN or START position, the PIM sends a password message to the ECM over the ISO 15765 Bus. Once the ECM confirms this is the password stored in its memory, it will energize the starter and fuel pump relays. If the password message received from the PIM does not match, the ECM will not energize the fuel pump or starter relay and the engine will not CRANK or START. Another function of the PIM is to provide interface for the operation of the cruise control system. 61 IPC Circuits Instrument Panel Cluster The Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) circuits are hard wired to the PIM. The PIM receives messaging from the ECM via ISO 15765 bus that commands it to turn ON the Charge, Service Vehicle Soon (SVS), Low Fuel Indicator, Cruise Set, and the Engine Oil Pressure indicators. The PIM also controls the gauge signals for the Engine Temperature, Fuel Level, Tachometer, and Speedometer. The Service Vehicle Soon (SVS) Indicator is a non-emission related Indicator. 62 MIL Indicator Malfunction Indicator Light The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) is hard wired between the Instrument Panel Cluster (IPC) and ECM. The ECM illuminates the MIL to notify the driver when an emission related Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) sets. The MIL also notifies the driver when a fault is occurring that may cause possible damage to the Catalytic Converter, such as a cylinder misfire, by flashing continuously until the condition is no longer present. Under this condition, a DTC will set and the MIL then reverts to a steady “ON” state at that time. 63 PIM Quick Learn Procedure Powertrain Interface Module Quick Learn Procedure If a new PIM is installed or swapped from another vehicle or when an ECM is swapped from another vehicle, a Relearn Procedure MUST be performed. Without this procedure, the vehicle will not crank because the security password in the ECM and the password in the PIM do not match. When a new ECM is installed or if the ECM is reprogrammed, there is no relearning required. The new ECM will learn the incoming security password of the PIM immediately upon the next ignition switch from OFF to CRANK. To learn the password of the current vehicle PIM, there is a 30-minute relearn procedure as well as a Quick Learn using the IDSS. 64 Engine Control Module Engine Control Module The ECM is located on the left side frame, below the Cab. It is designed to maintain exhaust emissions levels while maintaining driveability and fuel efficiency. The ECM is designed to process the various input information and then sends the necessary electrical responses to control fuel delivery, spark timing and other emissions control systems. The ECM controls the following operations: • Fuel control • Ignition control • Enhanced Evaporative emissions purge, Cruise control enable • Generator • A/C clutch control • On-board diagnostics 65 ECM Input Inputs Outputs • • • Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor Camshaft Position (CMP) Sensor Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) Sensor • • • • • Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor Mass Air Flow (MAF) Sensor • • • • • • • • • Intake Air Temperature (IAT) Sensor Throttle Position (TP) Sensor 4 Heated Oxygen Sensors (HO2S) Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) Sensor Fuel Level Sensor Fuel Tank Pressure (FTP) Sensor Radiator Coolant Temperature (RCT) Sensor Powertrain Interface Module (PIM) Transmission Control Module (TCM) • • • • • • • 8 Fuel Injectors 8 Ignition Coil/Driver Modules Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) System Camshaft Position Actuator Solenoid Enhanced EVAP Emissions Vacuum Purge Solenoid Transmission Functions A/C Compressor Clutch Fuel Pump Relay ISO 15765 (SERIAL DATA) Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) ECM Inputs The ECM constantly monitors input signals from various sensors and switches to manage fuel, ignition, emissions, and diagnostics.

It recognizes operational problems, alerts the driver through the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) and stores Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs). The ECM can detect up to 175 DTCs, making driveability diagnosis more efficient. 67 ECM Programming ECM Programming ECM Programming should be performed when replacing the ECM or when directed by a service procedure. Do NOT program the ECM unless directed by a service procedure or service bulletin. Before programming the ECM: • It is essential that the IDSS is equipped with the latest software. Check for the latest revision. If updates are required, QUIT IDSS and perform IDSS updates as required. • Battery voltage must be greater than 12 volts but less than 16 volts. Prior to programming, connect a factory recommended battery charger at its lowest 12 volt setting. Any fluctuation, spiking, over voltage or loss of voltage will interrupt the programming. • Programming can take up to 20 minutes to complete. A stable battery voltage is critical. Turn off or disable any systems that put a load on the vehicle battery, such as the air conditioning (HVAC), radio, interior or exterior lights. 68 ECM Programming ECM Programming (cont’d) Make certain all scan tool connections are secure. DO NOT disturb scan tool harnesses while programming. If an interruption occurs, programming failure or control module damage may occur. IDSS will provide step by step instructions to complete ECM programming. After successfully programming the control module, ensure that all post programming procedures are performed. DTCs may set during programming. Clear DTCs after programming is complete. 69 Notes 70 Notes 71 Notes 72 Notes 73
