Engine Start-Up
THIS IS AN OPEN LOOP MODE.When the starter motor is engaged, the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) receives input from:
^ Battery voltage
^ Crankshaft position (CKP) sensor
^ Engine coolant temperature (ECT) sensor
^ Intake air temperature (IAT) sensor
^ Throttle position sensor (TPS)
^ Camshaft position (CMP) sensor
^ Starter relay
Based on these inputs the PCM will:
^ Monitor crankshaft and camshaft position sensor. If signals are not received within 1 second, the PCM will shut down the Automatic Shutdown (ASD) and fuel pump relays.
^ Supply the injectors with a ground path, firing all injectors until the PCM determines crankshaft position.
^ Fire injectors in sequence, once PCM has determined crankshaft position.
^ Compare RPM Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor reading to idle speed MAP sensor reading. If the PCM does not detect a minimum difference it will set a Diagnostic Trouble Code.
^ Determine proper ignition timing.
