OFF position, unless otherwise required by the
proced ure.
• Set the parking brake when working on theveh icle. lf you have an automatic transmission , set it
in PARK unless instructed otherwise for a
specific service operation. If you have a manual
transmission , it should be in REVERSE (engine
OFF) or NEUTRAL (engine ON) unless instructed otherwise for a specific service
operation.
• Operate the engine only in a well-ventilated area
to avoid the danger of carbon monoxide.
• Keep yourself and you r clothing away from moving parts when the engine is running, especially
the fan and belts.
• To prevent serious burns, avoid contact with hot
metal parts such as the radiator, exhaust
manifold, tail pipe, catalytic converter and
muffler.
• Do not smoke while working on the vehicle.
• To avoid injury, always remove rings, watches,
loose hanging jewelry, and loose clothing
before beginning to work on a vehicle. Tie long
hair securely behind the head .
• Keep hands and other objects clear of the
radiator fan blades. Electric cooling fans can
start to operate at any time by an increase in
underhood temperatures, even though the igni·
tion is in the OFF position. Therefore, care
should be taken to ensure that the electric cooling Ian Is completely disconnected when working under the hood.

INTRODUCTION
• The 2.3 liter EFI (electronic fuel injccted) turbocha rged engine fo r 1984 offers improved performance
without penalty to fue l economy. Related design improvements include precise contro l o f pon injected fucl
metering wit h computer controlled spark . cylinder charge pressure and engine idle speed.
• The turbocharger boosts gross engine out put by approximately 40% horsepower and 45OJo torque over Ihe
normally aspirated engines. Vehicles equipped with a turbocharged engi ne can accelerate faster than the
non-turbocharged engine. The turbocharger is an "on demand" system that boosts engine output at highload/high-speed conditions, but has minimal effect o n fucl a:onomy at moderate-to-light load conditions.
• The new EEe-IV (Electronic Engine Control) System is used on this engine. It automatically controls the
fuel injection system, the ignition system, the exhaust gas recirculation (EG R) system and performs o ther
functions through a microprocessor.

MAJOR DESIGN FEATURES
• The 1984 2.3 liter Turbo engine is similar to the base 1983 2.3 liter OHC engine and the 1979/ 80 Turbo
engine. However, the turbo itself differs from the earlier version. It is a "blow-thTu" turbocharger in
which fuel is introduced downstream of the compressor and provides almost immediate response to accelerator pedal movement. The turbocharger is mounted on the right-hand side of the engine.
The 1979/ 80 version was a "draw-through" turbocharger in which fuel was introduced upstream of the
compressor. It was mounted on the left-hand side of the engine.
• The elcctronics are sim ilar to the 1.6 liter EEC-IV but incorporate some minor changes. In addition, this
high-performance engine features multiple-port fuel injection for precise fuel metering to each cylinder,
plus TFI ignition.

TURBOCHARGER
• A new improved Air Research Turbocharger is
mounted on the right side of the engine and is the
blow-through type. In a blow-through type IUrbocharger, fuel is introduced downstream of the compressor as opposed to earlier models using a drawthrough turbocha rger where fuel is introd uced
upstream of the compressor. The blow-through
design reduces fue l delivery time and increases the
IUrbine energy available. The benefits are bener,
smoother performance during all driving situations.
•
1984 turbo components are similar but improved
over the earlier version. Overall, the turbo has a
higher flow capacity. The turbocharger consists or
five major components;
o
The COMPRESSOR is a centrifugal, radial
outflow type. It comprises a cast aluminum compressor wheel, backplate assembly. and speciallydesigned housing thai encloses the wheel and
directs the air/ fuel mixture through the compressor.
The TURBINE is a centripetal, radial inflow
type. It comprises a high-temperature cast turbine
wheel. wheel shroud, and specially-designed
housing that encloses the wheel and directs the exhaust gas through the turbine.
The outlet elbow contains the WASTEGATE
ASSEMBLY, which allows a portion of the exhaust gas to bypass the turbine wheel to limit
co mpressor speed (see actuator).
The CENTER HOUSING supports the compressor and turbine wheel shaft in bearings which
contain oil ho les for directing lubrication to the
bearing bores a nd shaft journals.
The ACTUATOR is a spring-loaded diaphragm
device that senses the pressure in the intake
manifold and controls wastegate operation .

DISTRIBUTOR
The 1984 2.3 L EFl rfurbo engine ignition system
fealUTI.'S a universal distributo r design which is cam gear
driven and uses no centrifugal o r vacuum advance. The
distributor is convent io nally mo unted on the engine.
The distributor has a die-cast base which incorporates
an integrally mounted TFI-IV ignition module a nd a
" Hall-Effect " vane switch stator assembly. No distributor calibration is required a nd initial limi ng is no t a
normal adjustment.
NOTE: Do not change timing by use ot different
octane rods without first having the proper
authorization as federal emission requirements
will be affected.
If the distributor is removed from the engine, it must be
reset to base timing of 10 0 BTDC. To check base timing, disconnect the spark output trigger circuit 324
(yellow/ light green d Ol wire). This locks the TFI
module into "no advance" a nd allows adjustmem of
initial timing to the requi red 10 0 BTDC.
Provisions have been incorporated in the universal
distributor to allow for fixed adjustment to meet octane
needs. T he adjustmem is accomplished by replacing the

IGNITION SYSTEM OPERATION
The illustration shows the switch in both the OFF and
ON positions. Also, shows how this OFF-ON switching
takes place.
TFI·IV MODULE
The l .ll EFllTurbo engine ignition system uses the
Thick Film Inlegraled ignition module. The module is
contained in molded thermo-piastic and is mo unted on
the distributor base. Module features a "push stan"
mode which allows "push starting" of the vehicle if
necessary.
The switch consists o f a Hall Effect Device on one side
a nd a magnet o n the OIber. The rotary cup, which has
windo ws and tabs, rOiates and passes through the space
between the Hall Effect Device and the magnet.
Vehicles equipped with TFI-IV uses a n "E-Core" ignition coil which replaces the oi l-filled design used with
Dura-Spark II. The ignitio n coil connector allows a
tachometer conncction, using an alligator clip, without
removing the coil connector.
When a window is between the Hall Effect Device and
the magnet, the magnetic nux path is flor completed
from the magnet, thro ugh the Ha ll Effect Device, and
back to the magnet. In this case, the switch is OFF and
the Hall Effect Device sends no signal.
The spark plugs used on the 2.3l engine are 14 mm
standard reach, tapered seat design.
When a tab passes between the device and the magnet ,
the magnetic lines of flux increase. The nux lines are
shunted through the tab back 10 the magnet increasing
the efrect o f the magnet on the Ha ll Effect Device and
the device is turned ON.
When the next window passes belween the device and
the magnet, the device is again shut down and the signal
is turned OFF.
OPERATION
The voltage pulse is used by the EEC- IV system for
sensi ng crankshaft position and computing the desired
spark adva nce based on engine demand a nd calibration . The conditioned spark advance and high-voltage
distribution is accomplished through the conventional
rotor, cap, a nd ignition wires.
The primary function of the EEC- IV System universal
distributor is to direct the high secondary voltage to the
spark plugs. In addition, Ihe universal distributor supplies crankshaft position and frequency information to
the ECA, using a Profile Ignilio n Pick · Up.

TURBOCHARGER OPERATION
LUBRICATION
Turbochargers are lubricated by engine oil. Because a
turbocharger operates al speeds up to 120,1XK) revolutions per minute, lubrication of the bearings which support the shafl is important for cooling a nd friction
reduction. As with any no n-turbocharged engines. accelerating the engine to lOp rpm immediately after slarting can damage the engine andl or turbocharger. In the
same respect, immediately shutting down an engine that
had been operating at top rpm for an extended period
of lime can damage the engine and/ or tu rbocha rger.

INTRODUCTION TO EEC IV
This training manual covers the electronic engine control (EEe) IV system available on the 2.3L turbocharger EFI used on the Thunderbird. Mustang, and
Capri (Figure I) .
tained in the ECA are a tremendous aid to the service
technician when diagnosing service problems.
The addition or EEC IV to this engine ramily provides:
• Improved emissions
Like the other EEe systems produced by Ford Motor
Company. the EEe IV system was develo~ to control engine operation rather than relying solely on
vacuum and mechanical control. The system is very
similar to that used on the) .6L EFI·EEC IV system,
with the addition of the knock sensor. barometric sensor. and" keep-alive memory.'
• Improved engine perrormance
• Improved cold start and driveaway
• Beller ruel economy
• Improved idle speed a nd rast idle speed control
I
• No-touch starting
Keep-alive memory is an advancement over ot her EEe
systems in that the electronic control assembly (ECA)
retains any intermittent trouble codes stored within the
lasl 20 (e-starts. With this system, the memory is nOI
erased when the key is turned orr. Trouble codes re·

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
The center of the EEC IV system is a microprocessor
called the electronic conl rol assembly (ECA) . The
difference is that this ECA has the calibration module
located inside the ECA assembly, as did the 1.6L EFI.
Unlike the edge-card-type connectors used in the 1.6L
system, the EEC IV harness connectors are the pinand-socket type.
ECA receives data from a number of sensors and other
electronic components (switches, relays, etc.). The
ECA contains a specific calibration fo r optimizing
emissions, . fuel economy, and driveability. Based on
information received and programmed into its memory, the ECA generates output signals to control
various relays, solenoids, and other actuators.
As illustrated in Figure2, theECA is fo und in different
locations, depending on the model. On the Thunderbird, the ECA is mounted in the passenger compartment under the dash on the right-hand kick panel. O n
the Mustang /Capri, the ECA is mounted under the
passenger front seat.
The ECA in the EEC IV system is a microprocessor
like the one in the other EEC systems. One significant

2.3 LITER TURBOCHARGER EFI·EEC IV SUBSYSTEMS
The 2.3L turbocharger EF I· EEC IV system features
eleclronic cont rol of:
FUEL SUBSYSTEM
• Fucl injectors for precise ai r/ fuc l ratio control
The fu el subsystem consists of an in-lank low-pressure
fuel pump. a frame-mounted high-pressure electric
pump to deliver high-pressure fue l from the fu el
tank, a fuel filter to remove contaminants from the
fuel , a fu el charging mani fold assembly (Figure 3), a
fuel pressure regulator, and solid and flexible fuel
supply and relUrn lines.
• Engine spark liming
• Deceleration fuel shu to ff
• Exhaust gas recircu lation (on/ off)
• Curb idle speed and fast idle speed
• Knock sensor 10 control detonation
The fue l charging manifold assembly incorpo rates
fo ur elect rically COnt rolled fuel injecto rs. O ne injector
is mounted directly above each intake port in the lower
intake manifold . All injectors are energized simultaneously a nd fire once every crankshaft revolution. Th e
injectors spray a predetermined quantity o f fu el into
the intake air stream.
• Engine diagnostics (self-lest)
• Fuel pump (elect ric)
• Cold Slart (no-Iouch slarti ng)
• Cold-engine enrichment
• Altitude compensation
A constant pressure drop is maintained across the injection nozzles through a pressure regulator, which is
referenced to intake mani fold pressure. The regu lator
is connected parallel to the fuel injectors a nd positioned on the far end of the fu el rai l. Fuel supplied by
the pump, but not req uired by the engine, passes
through the regulator and returns to the fuel tank
through a fuel return line.
The EFI-EEC IV system is divided into three
subsystems:
• Fuel
• Air
• Electronic engine cont rol

ENGINE OPERATING MODES
CONTROL MODES
Normal Engine Operation
In order to operate the various engine functions effectively , three control modes have been programmed into the ECA (Figure 33). They are:
Normal engi ne operating conditions are divided into
five separate modes:
• Crank mode
• Normal engine operation
• Underspeed mode
• Cold- or hOI-engi ne operation
- Closed-throttle mode
• limited operation strategy (LOS)
• Part-throttle mode
• Wide-open-throttle mode (W .O.T.)
CONTROL MODES
Normal engine operation provides an optimum calibration for each of these modes . A mode evaluation
circuit in the ECA determines which mode is present at
any given time of engine operation lind adjusts the calibration , as required.
• Normal Engine Operation
- Crank Mode
- Underspeed Mode
- Closed·Throttie Mode
- Part·Throttie Mode
- Wlde-Open-Throttle (W.O.T.) Mode
Crank Mode
• Cold· or Hot·Engine Operation
The crank mode is entered after initial engi ne powerup or after engi ne stall when the key is in START. A
special operation program is used in the crank mode 10
aid engine starti ng. A ft er engine stan, one o f the run
modes is entered a nd normal engine operation is
performed.

loop mode (no EGO sensor feedback) or a closed- loop
mode (with EGO sensor feedback) (Figure 34).
• Fuel conlrol is in open-loop mode w hen the engine
is cold, during W.O.T. operation, or during LOS
operation.
• When the engine is cranked, fuel control is in openloop operation and the ECA sets engine timing at
10° BTDC.
• Fuel control enters closed-loop operation within 60
seconds after stan-up for most temperatures. The
system remains in closed- loop operation for partthrottle and idle situations.
- The four fuel injectors nre in a sim ultaneous, quadnre manner to provide the base crank air/ fuel
control.
• The throttle air bypass valve solenoid is set to open
the bypass valve to provide the fast idle/ no-touch

• The EGR cutoff solenoid is not energized, so the
EGR valve is off.

- Cold Engine
-W.O.T.
If the engi ne coola nt is cold , the engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor signal to the ECA ca uses the
ECA to enrich the fuel input through the injectors. In
this operation, the ECT sensor is performing as a
choke system to improve thecold-start reaction and to
provide good cold driveaway cha racteristics.

ENGINE OPERATING MODES
The vane meter measures the air now through the
meter to determine ai r volu me and temperature. The
ECA re<:eives the outpu t signal from the meter and
prepares to adjust the a ir/ fuel ratio (in the run mode),
as required, to maintain the calculated ratio.
H owever, in the crank mode, the vane meter is fl utlering and the signal is ignored.
The throttle air bypass valve position is determ ined by
the ECA as a function of rpm, ECT, A/ C on or off,
thrott le mode, a nd time since start-up inpu ts.
The EGR valve is off during a closed-t hrott le condition. T he signal from the TPS to the ECA indicates
that the th rottle plate is closed, a nd the ECA deenergizes the EGR shutoff solenoid.
Underspeed Mode
Part-ThroUie Mode (Cruise)
Operation in the underspeed mode (under 500 rpm) is
similar to that previously described for the crank
mode. The injectors are fired once per revolution.
The system switches from the underspeed mode to
the normal run mode at 500 rpm. The underspeed
mode is used to provide a good pulse widt h 10 the injectors and ignores any signal fr om the vane meter.
During th is mode, the vane meter flu tters and any
signal generated would vary with the fl utter. Therefore , the vane meter signal is igno red by the ECA in
the underspeed mode.
The a ir/ fu el ratio and ignition timing are calcu lated in
the same manner as previously described for the
closed-throttle mode. The fuel control system remains
in closed loop during part-thrott le operation, as long
as the EGO sensor keeps switching from rich to lean.
In part-throttle operation, the thrott le a ir bypass valve
is positioned to provide an electronicdashpot functio n
when the throttle is closed. Again , as in the closedthrottle mode, the ECA makes this determination
based on the inputs from the applicable sensors.
The TPS provides the throttle plate position signal to
the ECA. Wit h the throule plate being in a partia lly
open position, the ECA energizes the EGR shutoff
solenoid and the EGR fl ow rate is controlled by engine
load (manifold vacuum) th rough the ported EGR
valve.
Closed-Throttle Mode (Idle or Deceleration)
In the closed-throttle mode, the airl fuel rat io is
trimmed (by varying the pulse width of the output from
the ECA to the injectors) to obtain the desired mixture.
To calcu late what this output signal should be, the ECA
evaluates signal inputs from the ECT sensor, the va ne
meter, the TPS, the EGO sensor, the PIP sensor, and
A / C clutch . T hese sensors in form the ECA of the various conditions that must be evaluated in order for the
ECA to determine the correct air/ fuel ratio for the
closed-throttle co ndition present . Therefore, with the
input from the EGO sensor , the system is maintained in
closed-loop operation at idle.
Wide-Open-Throttle Mode (W.O.T.)
Cont rol of the air / fu el ratio at W.O.T. is the same as
in part- or closed-thro ttle situatio ns, except the pulse
widt h is increased to provide additional fuel enrichment. T he pulse width increase is applied as a result
of the W.O. T. signal from the TPS to the ECA . This
signa l from the TPS a lso causes the ECA to deenergize the EGR shutoff solenoid (if present). More
spark advance is a lso added at W.O. T. for improved
performance, depending on octane and emi ssion
limits.
Under a deceleration condi tio n, the TPS signal indicates closed thrott le and the ECA shuts off fuel for improved fue l economy and emissions. The injectors a rc
turned back on, as required, to prevent engine stalling.
Cold- or Hot·Engine Operation
• The point a t which the injectors are turned back on
will occur at diffe rent rpm , depending on ca libration factor s and engine temperature.
This modified operat io n changes the normal engi ne
operatio n output signals, as required, to adjust for uncom mon engine operating conditions. These incl ude a
cold or excessively hot engine.
• Also, the injectors are turned back o n if the throttle
is opened.
Ignition timing is also determ ined by the ECA using input from the ECT sensor, the vane meter, the TPS, the
EGO sensor, the PIP sensor, and the A / C clutch. The
ECA has a series of tables programmed into the assembly at the factory. These tables provide the ECA
with a reference of desired ignition timing for the various operating conditions reflected by the senso r
inputs .
Limited Operation Strategy (LOS)
In this operat io n, the ECA provides the necessary output signa ls to allow the vehicle to "Iimp home" when
an electronic malfu nction occurs. T he EGR isshu t off,
the air bypass valve goes to a fi xed voltage, timi ng is
locked at 10 ° BTDC, and the injector pulse width is
constant.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Like other earlier EEC systems, the 2.3l turbocharger
EFI-EEC IV system has a self-test capability. The
primary 1001 needed for the self-test is an analog
voltmeter o r the self·test automatic readout (STAR)
lester (Figure 44).

USING THE SELF-TEST PROCEDURE
This diagnostic procedure is used on 2.3l IUrbo-charger EFI-EEC IV-equipped vehicles and only when
the diagnostic routines in the Engine/ Emissions
Diagnosis Manual instruct you 10 perform EEC IV
diagnostics. The procedure is divided inlo two les t
formats: the quick lest (a fu nctional EEC IV lest) and
the pinpoint tests (a number of specific component
tests).

QUICK-TEST DESCRIPTION
The quick lest is a functionai lesl of the EEC system
consisting of 10 basic test steps. T hese steps must be
followed carefu lly to avoid incorrect diagnosis or the
replacement of non-fau!ly components.
The kcy-on/ engine-off and engine running tests are intcnded to detect hard fai lures only. not intermittent
faults. Intermittent fau lts are detected by continuous
testing. which is covered in more detail later in this
manual.

DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
Quick·Test Steps
SELF·TEST DESCRIPTION
1.0 Visual Check and Vehicle Preparation
The self-test is not a conclusive test by itsel f, but is used
as a part of the functional quick-test diagnostic procedure. The ECA stores the self-test program in its permanent memory. When activated, it checks the EEC
IV system by testing its memory integrity and processing capability, and verifies that various sensors and
actuators are connected and operating properly. The
self-test is divided into three specialized tests: key-onl
engine-off, engine running, and cont inuous testing.
• Checks for obvious faults
• Properly prepares the vehicle for testing
2.0 Equipment Hookup
• Ensures that the properequipmem for gathering test data is ready prior to testing
3.0 Service Codes
• Fast codes
The key-on/ engine-off and engine running tests are
functional tests which only detect faults present at the
time of the self-test. Continuous testing is an ongoing
test that stores fault information for retrieval at a later
time (during the self-test).
• Engine identification codes
• Engine service code
• Continuous codes
4.0 Key-On/ Engine-Off Self-Test
• Checks ECA inputs against calibrated sensor
Only the quick test is included in this manual. The remainder of the pinpoint tests can be found in the 1983
Engine/ Emissions Diagnosis Manual.
values for key-on / engine-off
5.0 Con tinuous Self-Test
• Checks the sensor inputs for opens and shorts
6.0 Output Cycling Test
Reading Codes-Analog Voltmeter
• ECA activates all outputs when the throttle is
cycled for additional diagnostics
When a service code is reported on the analog voltmeter for a function test, it will represent itself as a
pulsing or sweeping movement of the voltmeter's
needle across the dial face of the voltmeter (Figure 48).
Therefore, a single-digit number of three will be reported by three needle pulses (sweeps). However, as
previously stated , a service code is represented by a
two-digit number, such as 2-3. As a resu lt, the selftest service code of 2-3 will appear on the voltmeter as
two needle pulses (sweeps); then, after a two-second
pause, the needle will pulse (sweep) three times.
7.0 Computed Timing Check
• Verifies the system's ability to compule
and maintain 30-degree spark timing in the
self-test
8.0 Engine Running Test
• C hecks sensors and actuators under actual
operating condItions
9.0 Wiggle Test
10.0 Pinpoint Routines
The continuous testing codes are separated from the
functional codes by a six-second delay, a single halfseeond sweep, and another six-seeond delay. They are
produced on the voltmeter in the same manner as the
functional codes.
• Corrective action to be entered only when instructed by the functional test

For the self-test to detect errors in the key-on/ engi neoff test , the fau lt must be presen( at the time of testing.
For intermittent faults, refer to continuous test ing.
Continuous Monitor Test
In addit ion to the service codes, two other types of coded information are output during the self-test: engine
identification codes and fa st codes.
This test is intended as a n aid in diagnosi ng interm itten( fai lures in the sensor input circuits. The self-tes t
output is energized whenever the con tinuous test mode
senses a fau lt and de-energized when the system is OK.
The service code format is:
• Engine 1.0. pulses (engine running only)
• Key·O n/ Engine-Orr Continuous Monitor Mode.
To enter this mode, veri fy that theself-tes t is nOI activated and then turn the key 10 RUN. Self-test output will be activated whenever a conti nuous fa ult is
detected and if the d uration is long enough for a
trouble code to be stored.
• Fast codes
• Key-on/engine-off (on demand a nd continuous)
• Engine running (on demand and continuous)
• Engine Running Continuous Monitor Code. This
mode of testing is entered immedia tely after the
service codes from the engine run ning portion of the
Quick test are entered. Because the engine running
test can be entered only o nce per ignition cycle, a
quick a lternate method that will eliminate wailing
for the self-test to complete its cycle is to enter
the engine running lest cycle a nd then enter the
engine cont inuous monitor code (do not shultheengine off).
Engine Identification Code. (1. 0 . Code.)
Engine 1.0. codes a re issued at the beginning of the
engine running test and are one-digit numbers represented by the number of pulses sent out. The engine
1.0. code is equal to one-half the number of engine
cylinders (e.g., 2 pulses equaI4 cyli nders). These codes
are used by the AUiomotiveAssembly Division (AAD)
and have no value in the field .

moving, and wiggling the harness and/or adapter of
the suspected sensor. If the self-test monitor indicates
a fault (open or short) , the corresponding service code
will be stored . Once this code is known, the technician
can make a close check of the harness and associated
connectors to determine the fault.
Service Codes
Output Cycling Test
Functional test codes (hard failures) are displayed first
on the self-test output as previously described. A single
half-second separator pulse is issued six seconds after
the last functional test code (key-on/engine-off);
then, six seconds after the single half-second separator pulse, the continuous codes will be issued.
This test is performed in the key-onlengine-off test
after the continuous codes have been sent. Without disabling the self-lest, momentarily depress the throttle to
the noor and then release the throttle. All auxiliary EEe
codes, including the self-test, will be activated at this
time. Another throttle depression will turn them off.
This cycle may be repeated as necessary, but if it is activated for more than 10 minutes, the cycle will return to
the de-energized condition. This feature allows the
technician to force the processor to activate these outputs for additional diagnostics.
GLOSSARY
Barometric Sensor-On-board sensor that sends atmospheric pressure information (digital format) to the
ECA.
Engine Running Test
Continuous Test-Portion of the self-test that has the
ability to store a service code, indicating a suspect area,
and to monitor sel f-te st output while the vehicle is being operated.
Afler conducting the output cycling test, a test of the
EEC IV system is conducted with the engine running.
The sensors are checked under actual operating conditions. The actuators are exercised and checked for corresponding results. The areas tested are:
Electronic Control Assembly (ECA)-Microprocessor
which receives data from various sensors and provides
output to regulate various actuators.
• System pass (code II)
• Rpm (extended idle) (code 12)
• Engine coolant temperature (ECT) (normal operating temperature) (code 21)
EGR Shutoff Solenoid-Used for on/off only
functions.
• Barometric absolute pressure (BAP) (code 22)
Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor (ECT)-A
temperature-dependent resistive element used to in-·
dicate engine coolant temperature to the processor.
• Vane meter (code 24, 26, 76)
• Throttle position (TP) (code 23, 73)
Exhaust Gas Oxygen Sensor (EGO)-A sensor located
in the hot exhaust gas now used to determine the
amount of oxygen left in the exhaust stream.
• Exhaust gas recircula.tion (EGR) (code 34)
• Fuel control (rich or lea n) (code 41, 42)
• Goose (code 73, 76, 77)
Injector-Meters the fuel delivery by an applied duty
cycle (on- vs. off-time).
Wiggte Test
In add ilion, the self-test output is activated whenever a
monitored circuit is shorted or opened (intermittent
failure), for example, with the self-test not triggered
and an analog meter attached to self-test output. Observe the meter while moving, wiggling, or tapping the
system harness, connectors, or sensors. If, in this manner, an intermittent condition is re-created, the meter
will denect each time the condition is induced, and a
service code will be stored. At this time, perform the
self-test to retrieve the serv ice codes.
Knock Sensor-A sensor designed to detect engine
detonation and provide this information to the ECA.
Output State Chet:!k-A portion of the end of the keyon/engine-off test that enables energizing and deenergizing the auxiliary outputs on demand.
