An electronic control system supervises and governs all engine parameters to optimise performance and fuel consumption by means of a real-time response to different service conditions.The common rail injection system on this version uses Multijet technology: i.e. during each engine stroke it makes more than the two normal injections; in fact it makes two pre-injections (before the piston is at top dead centre), one main injection and two post-injections.This solution improves fuel consumption, noise levels and performance because it allows better control of temperature in the combustion chamber by lowering the maximum value and extending the optimum combustion area.Depending on the signals received from numerous sensors, the control unit controls the injectors connected to it managing the following systems:- fuel supply;- air supply;- heater plugs;- accelerator pedal;- engine cooling.This version has a linear Lambda sensor, fitted on the front section of the exhaust pipe (downstream of the turbocharger) which informs the engine management control unit of the progress of the combustion. It is used to compare the reading of the air flow meter with the one mapped in the control unit and, if necessary, correct the fuel injection to be within the emission limits.The electronic management system described above ensures that this engine meets the very latest EOBD (European On Board Diagnogis) system emission control and monitoring requirements. This system allows continous diagnosis of emission-related car components and notifies the driver if any of the components should deteriorate by turning on a warning light in the instrument panel.The aim of the system is to:- monitor system efficiency;- indicate an increase in emissions due to vehicle malfunction;- indicate the need to replace damaged components.For more details, See descriptions 1060 DIESEL INJECTION SYSTEMThe system is also controlled by dedicated relays in the engine bay control unit. Lines supplying the control unit and various system components (sensors and actuators) are protected by dedicated fuses that are also located inside the engine bay.
