3360142 - 1060G DIESEL INJECTION PRESSURE PUMP ELECTRONIC CONTROL
DESCRIPTION OF COMPONENTS
Injection control unit (EDC-15C7 common rail)
It is fitted in the engine compartnent on the right side panel. The control unit the flash EPROM type, i.e. it can be reprogrammed from the outside without affecting the hardware.The injection control unit integrates the absolute pressure sensor.PIN OUT
RPM SENSOR
Specifications
It is fitted on the cylinder block/crankcase facing the flywheel on the crankshaft.It is inductive type, i.e. its operation is determined by magnetic field changes generated by the teeth passing in front of the phonic wheel (60-2 teeth).The injection control unit uses the rpm signal for:
- determining the rotation speed;
- determining the angular crankshaft position.

Operation
The changeover from full to empty determined by the presence or absence of a gap brings about a magnetic flux change sufficient to generate an induced alternating voltage proportional to the number of teeth on the ring (or phonic wheel).The frequency and amplitude of the voltage send to the electronic control unit provides the latter with an indication of the engine angular speed.

CAM ANGLE SENSOR
Specifications
This Hall effect sensor is fitted on the cylinder head facing the camshaft drive pulley.A slot on the pulley allows the timing sensor to indicate engine timing position.The injection control unit uses the timing sensor signal to identify T.D.C. at the end of compression.
Operation
A current-carrying semiconductor layer immersed in a normal magnetic field (force lines at right angles to current direction) generates a potential difference known as a Hall voltage at its terminals.If current intensity remains constant, the generated voltage depends on magnetic field intensity alone. Periodic changes in magnetic field intensity are sufficient to generate a modulated electrical signal with frequency proportional to the speed of magnetic field change. This change is achieved by making a magnetic ring (internal part of pulley) with an opening pass the sensor.As it moves, the metal part of the ring covers the sensor to block the magnetic field and thus generate a high (1) ouput signal. Conversely, the sensor generates a low (0) signal when the opening is over the sensor and a magnetic field is present.Together with the rpm and TDC signal, this signal allows the control unit to identify the cylinders and determine injection point.
EXCESS PRESSURE SENSOR
Specifications
It is fitted in the centre of the intake chamber and has the task of informing the injection control unit in order to:
- modulate injection pressure;
- regulate fuel injection duration.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Specifications
This is fitted to the thermostat cup and detects coolant temperature by means of a dual NTC thermistor with negative resistance coefficient.One NTC thermistor sends the signal to the injection control unit whilst the other sends the signal to the temperature gauge and the warning light in the instrument panel.
AIR FLOW METER WITH BUILT IN AIR TEMPERATURE SENSOR
Specifications
The debimeter is located on the air intake sleeve and is hot film type.
![]() | THE AIR FLOW METER CANNOT BE DISMANTLED OR SEPARATED FROM THE CYLINDRICAL CASING BY REMOVING THE FIXING BOLTS. |

Operation
The principle of operation is based on a heated membrane positioned within a measurement channel that carries air into the engine.The hot film membrane is maintained at constant temperature (about 120°C higher than the incoming air temperature) by the heating coil.The air mass that flows through the measurement channel tends to remove heat from the membrane. Current must therefore flow through the coil to maintain the membrane at a constant temperature.This current is measured by a special Wheatstone bridge.The current is therefore proportional to the flowing air mass.![]() | The flowmeter measures the air mass directly (not the volume) to eliminate problems of temperature, altitude, pressure etc. |
Fuel temperature sensor
Specifications
It is incorporated in the fuel heater assembly and measures the temperature of the fuel by means of a dual NTC thermistor with negative resistance coefficient.
FUEL PRESSURE SENSOR
Specifications
It is fitted in the middle of the single fuel manifold rail and its function is to provide the injection control unit with a feedback signal to enable it to:
- modulate injection pressure;
- regulate fuel injection duration.

ACCELERATOR PEDAL POTENTIOMETER
Construction specifications
The sensor consists of a case secured to the accelerator pedal; the case contains an axially-located shaft connected to two potetiometers: a main one and one safety one.A coil spring on the shaft ensures the correct amount of resistance to pressure while a second spring ensures return following release.
