(17) Engine Harness Connector J2/P2 The electronic control system is integrally designed into the engine's fuel system and the engine's air inlet and exhaust system in order to electronically control the fuel delivery and the injection timing. The electronic control system provides increased timing control and fuel air ratio control in comparison to conventional mechanical engines. Injection timing is achieved by the precise control of the injector firing time. Engine rpm is controlled by adjusting the injection duration. The Electronic Control Module (ECM) energizes the unit injector solenoids in order to start the injection of fuel. Also, the ECM de-energizes the unit injector solenoids in order to stop the injection of fuel. Refer to Systems Operation/Testing And Adjusting, "Fuel System" for a complete explanation of the fuel injection process.The engine uses the following three types of electronic components:
Input component
Control component
Output componentAn input component is one that sends an electrical signal to the ECM of the system. The signal that is sent varies in either of the following ways:
Voltage
Frequency
Pulse widthThe variation of the signal is in response to a change in some specific system of the machine. Some specific examples of an input component are the engine speed-timing sensors and the coolant temperature sensor. The ECM interprets the signal from the input component as information about the condition, environment, or operation of the machine.The ECM is an example of a control component. The ECM receives the input signals from the input components. Electronic circuits inside the ECM evaluate the signals from the input components. These electronic circuits also supply electrical energy to the output components of the system. The electrical energy that is supplied to the output components is based on predetermined combinations of input signal values.An output component is one that is operated by a control module. The output component receives electrical energy from the control group. The output component uses that electrical energy in one of two ways. The output component can use that electrical energy in order to perform work. The output component can use that electrical energy in order to provide information.As an example, a moving solenoid plunger will perform work. By performing work, the component has functioned in order to regulate the machine.As an example, a dash panel light or an alarm will provide information to the operator of the machine.These electronic components provide the ability to electronically control the engine operation. Engines with electronic controls offer the following advantages:
Improvement in performance
Improvement in fuel consumption
Reduction in emissions levelsFor information about Diagnostic Flash Codes, Electrical Connectors and Functions refer to the Troubleshooting Guide for your specific engine application.
