IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE


Appropriate service methods and proper repair procedures are essential for the safe, reliable operation of all motor vehicles, as well as the personal safety of the individual doing the work. This manual provides general directions for accomplishing service and repair work with tested, effective techniques. Following them will help assure reliability. There are numerous variations in procedures, techniques, tools and parts for servicing vehicles, as well as in the skill of the individual doing the work. This manual cannot possibly anticipate all such variations and provide advice or cautions as to each. Accordingly, anyone who departs from instructions provided in this manual must first establish that he compromises neither his personal safety nor the vehicle integrity by his choice of methods, tools or parts. As you read through the procedures, you will come across NOTES, CAUTIONS, and WARNINGS. Each one is there for a specific purpose. NOTES give you added information that will help you to complete a particular procedure. CAUTIONS are given to prevent you from making an error that could damage the vehicle. WARNINGS remind you to be especially careful in those areas where carelessness can cause personal injury. The following list contains some general WARNINGS that you should follow when you work on a vehicle.

Always wear safety glasses for eye protection. Use safety stands whenever a procedure requires you to be under the vehicle. Be sure that the ignition switch is always in the OFF position, unless otherwise required by the procedure. Set the parking brake when working on the vehicle. If 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 your 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 your 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 ignition is in the OFF position. Therefore, care should be taken to ensure that the electric cooling fan is completely disconnected when working under the hood.

The recommendations and suggestions contained in this manual are made to assist the dealer in improving his dealership parts and/or service department operations. These recommendations and suggestions do not supersede or override the provisions of the Warranty and Policy Manual, and in any cases where there may be a conflict, the provisions of the Warranty and Policy Manual shall govern. The descriptions, testing procedures, and specifications in this handbook were in effect at the time the handbook was approved for printing. Ford Motor Company reserves the right to discontinue models at any time, or change specifications, design, or testing procedures without notice and without incurring obligation. Any reference to brand names in this manual is intended merely as an example of the types of tools, lubricants, materials, etc. recommended for use. Equivalents, if available, may be used. The right is reserved to make changes at any time without notice. WARNING: MANY BRAKE LININGS CONTAIN ASBESTOS FIBERS. WHEN WORKING ON BRAKE COMPONENTS, AVOID BREATHING THE DUST. BREATHING THE ASBESTOS DUST CAN CAUSE ASBESTOSIS AND CANCER. Breathing asbestos dust is harmful to your health. Dust and dirt present on car wheel brake and clutch assemblies may contain asbestos fibers that are hazardous to your health when made airborne by cleaning with compressed air or by dry brushing. Wheel brake assemblies and clutch facings should be cleaned using a vacuum cleaner recommended for use with asbestos fibers. Dust and dirt should be disposed of in a manner that prevents dust exposure, such as sealed bags. The bag must be labeled per OSHA instructions and the trash hauler notified as to the contents of the bag. If a vacuum bag suitable for asbestos is not available, cleaning should be done wet. If dust generation is still possible, technicians should wear government approved toxic dust purifying respirators. OSHA requires areas where asbestos dust generation is possible to be isolated and posted with warning signs. Only technicians concerned with performing brake or clutch service should be present in the area.

An Electronic system consists of inputs, a control module, and outputs. In this workstation you have taken voltage readings to see what the module sees when monitoring switched inputs. The Central Processing Unit (CPU) receives the input as ON and OFF signals. The input circuit voltage is converted into an eight-bit signal in the Analog to Digital (A-D) converter. This signal is compared to a look-up table, which resides in the CPU memory. The CPU makes decisions based on the look-up table and sends a signal to the Digital to Analog (D-A) converter. In this exercise you will predict what the module will do. Use the look-up table below to decide when the module turns the lights on or off.

Thermistors are variable resistors that change resistance when temperature changes. They provide temperature information to a module in the form of an analog DC signal. Thermistors are made of a special resistive material that is very sensitive to changes in temperature. In most thermistors, as temperature increases, the resistance of the thermistor decreases. As temperature decreases, thermistor resistance increases. This change of resistance is used in a voltage divider circuit to produce an analog DC voltage that indicates temperature. This analog voltage begins as five volts, which passes through a current limiting resistor inside the module and then is wired to the external thermistor. Thermistors are two-wire sensors that are part of a voltage divider circuit. The voltage supply and current limiting resistor are internal to the module. The wire from the current limiting resistor to the thermistor is called the signal wire. This is where the module monitors the analog DC voltage signal created by the change in temperature. The wire from the thermistor to ground is known as signal return.

A potentiometer is a type of variable resistor that produces an analog DC signal. It is commonly used to convert mechanical position into an electrical signal. Potentiometers are used in electronic systems where the module needs to determine the position of a component. Potentiometers are composed of a resistive material and a movable wiper. Voltage is applied to one end of the resistive material. The other end of the resistive material is connected to a signal return (ground). The movable wiper arm in the potentiometer is attached to the signal circuit. The tip of the wiper contacts the resistive material. The wiper arm follows the movement of the component it is monitoring. As the wiper moves, the voltage signal to the module increases or decreases.

A Variable Reluctance Sensor (VRS) produces an analog AC signal. It uses magnetism to generate its voltage signal. Variable reluctance sensors are used to provide position and speed information. By monitoring the frequency of the signal, the module determines speed. Higher frequency indicates higher speed. A variable reluctance sensor consists of a toothed trigger wheel called a reluctor (indicator) and a sensor, which is made of a permanent magnet with a coil of wire wrapped around it. This sensor is located at a specific distance from the reluctor (indicator). This distance is called an air gap.

GEM OPERATING STATES There are two basic GEM operating states, the Operational State and the Diagnostic State. Each of these states have diagnostic capabilities available. Operational State The Operational State allows the GEM to execute normal operating strategy, store Continuous DTC's when faults are detected, and automatically clear any continuous DTC's when 80 ignition START cycles have been achieved without the fault being detected. During the Operational State, all functions of the GEM are still enabled, having the following diagnostic capabilities: Detect faults and store Continuous DTC's Clear Continuous DTC's Report Continuous DTC's Report Parameter Identification (PID) values/ Datalogger Enter the Diagnostic State Diagnostic State Using a scan tool (NGS/WDS), the technician has the capability to control diagnostic testing of the GEM by turning on various outputs, reading GEM inputs, retrieving DTC'S, clearing DTC'S, and initiating diagnostic tests or commands. All GEM controlled outputs are set to a default condition upon entering the Diagnostic State. All GEM input/output activities will be affected. The GEM's functions will return to normal operation and the output devices will be reactivated when the Diagnostic State is exited. While in the Diagnostic State, all functions of the module are disabled, allowing for the following tests: On-Demand Self-Test Active Command Test/ Output State Command Report Parameter Identification (PID) values/ Datalogger Diagnostic State Entry A technician can enter diagnostic state by: Requesting a Self-Test Requesting an Active Command Mode/ Output State Command

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC's) Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTC's) are common diagnostic fault codes used across all vehicle lines, systems, and subsystems. DTC's are: five-digit codes categorized as either Powertrain (P), Body (B), Chassis (C), or Undefined (U). DTC's have only one specific meaning attached to each code, regardless of which module generates the code. DTC's are used to indicate faults on one or more of the GEM's input/output circuits. The GEM has the capability to retain all DTC's in memory for 80 ignition START cycles. There are two types of DTC'S: Continuous DTC's (logged during normal vehicle operation), and On-Demand DTC's (logged during an On-Demand Self-Test initiated by the technician).

One of the greatest benefits DTC's allow us is the ability to detect system faults and report them. This is accomplished by an internal mechanism in the GEM that contains logic designed to observe a specific type of behavior, and if that behavior ventures outside of what the logic declares as "normal operation," the GEM will generate a Continuous DTC. The next time the technician requests information, the GEM will report the Continuous DTC(s). The most common conditions that would cause a DTC to be generated include: a circuit failure an open circuit a short circuit-to-ground a short circuit-to-battery DTC's also allow us to compare On-Demand Self-Test DTC's with Continuous DTC'S. If a DTC is detected during Continuous mode, but not during On-Demand Self-Test mode, then there is an intermittent fault (the failure existed once, but is now gone when On-Demand Self-Test is run). If a DTC is an On-Demand Self-Test code, there is a hard fault (an existing problem that can be isolated).

Electronic Systems Diagnosis

DAY ONE HOMEWORK


CONTINUOUS DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC's) Continuous DTC's are only logged during normal vehicle operation. When the GEM energizes an external device, a faulty circuit condition may exist. If the device is successfully energized before one second elapses, a Continuous DTC is not stored and no fault management action is taken. If the fault continues after a predetermined fault time, a Continuous DTC is stored and appropriate fault management action is taken. Continuous DTC's should be retrieved from the GEM before an On-Demand Self-Test is run. These Continuous DTC's are then compared by the technician against the DTC's retrieved after running an On-Demand Self-Test. Results of Continuous and On-Demand Self-Test DTC's will determine whether a fault is a hard fault or an intermittent one. After retrieving Continuous DTC's the codes should be manually cleared. Clearing DTC's Manually Using a scan tool (NGS/WDS), DTC's can be cleared manually in one of two ways, clearing only a single DTC, or clearing all DTC's at once. Clearing DTC's Automatically DTC's are cleared automatically when the fault is no longer detected by the GEM for 80 ignition START cycles.

ON-DEMAND SELF-TEST An On-Demand Self-Test: does not involve elaborate testing covers most fault conditions The On-Demand Self-Test consists of an internal GEM test and a GEM subsystem input/output circuitry test. A general requirement of an On-Demand Self-Test is that no action by the technician, such as activating a switch during the test, will be required. The On-Demand Self-Test is designed to test the GEM's subsystem input output circuitry in a quick and efficient manner. While the On-Demand Self-Test is designed to test input/output circuitry, it cannot test complete circuits or components. Running an On-Demand Self-Test The technician cannot activate any controls while an On- Demand Self-Test is running or a false DTC may be generated. Before initiating a test, the GEM and its subsystems must be set up in a defined state. On-Demand Self-Test Results Results of an On-Demand Self-Test are in the form of DTC'S, which the NGS/WDS will display automatically.

DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC's) AND CUSTOMER CONCERN DIAGNOSIS Hard Faults Hard faults are reported as DTC's during an On-Demand Self- Test, and reflect faults that currently exist in the GEM control system. EXAMPLE: An On-Demand Self-Test is run on the windshield wiper/washer system, and the results of the test indicate an open in the relay coil's circuit. A fault is reported, indicating a failure currently exists. The technician can now use diagnostic testing to trace the circuit backwards from the suspected faulty component to the GEM. Intermittent Faults Intermittent faults are apparent when a Continuous DTC exists and an On-Demand Self-Test does not detect the same fault. NOTE: A DTC generated during a Continuous Test must also be a valid DTC for the OnDemand Self-Test. If the DTC is valid for both sets, and if the DTC was generated in the continuous mode but not after an On-Demand Self-Test was run, then the fault is classified as intermittent. EXAMPLE: An On-Demand Self-Test is run on the windshield wiper/washer system, and the results of the test indicate no faults are presently detected in the relay coil; yet, there is a Continuous DTC indicating an open in the relay driver circuit. The DTC has already been determined to be valid for both continuous and on-demand modes. Therefore the fault is classified as intermittent. INTERMITTENT FAULTS Continuous DTCs HARD FAULTS On-Demand DTCs Continuous DTCs (*) (*) Continuous DTCs may be caused by a hard fault if the continuous code has been cleared. Then the vehicle is operated and the code reappears.

HOMEWORK DAY ONE


SYMPTOMS WITHOUT DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC's) In cases where there are no DTC'S, the technician must first determine, via customer symptoms, whether the concern is input or output related. FAULT ISOLATION During On-Demand Self-Test, inputs and outputs may be seen by the GEM as operating correctly, yet a concern may still exist. In a case such as this the concern is beyond GEM's vision. To verify whether the concern is an input or output problem, the technician should use Parameter Identifications (PIDs) to check for an input concern, or Active Commands to check for an output concern. To verify that the input devices and wiring are satisfactory, the technician would view the PIDs to see if GEM recognizes the inputs change of state. If the input is correct, the output is at fault. To verify that the output circuit is satisfactory, the technician would use Active Commands to activate the component. If the output is correct, the input is at fault. In order for the technician to verify an input concern, the technician must check Parameter Identifications (PIDs). In order for the technician to verify an output concern, the technician must utilize Active Commands. PARAMETER IDENTIFICATION (PID) DATA MONITOR/ DATALOGGER Parameter Identifications (PIDs) read information relative to a status of the GEM. PIDs are the primary diagnostic tool used to indicate input/output circuitry status. EXAMPLE: Without PIDs there were times when you may have needed a voltmeter to measure and check module status, but with a PID you can have the module report the status to you through the NGS/WDS. PIDs allow you to monitor input/output values as seen by GEM. ACTIVE COMMANDS/ OUTPUT STATE COMMAND Active Commands allow the NGS/WDS to control GEM outputs and enable the technician to toggle/actuate outputs (components), allowing for the examination and/or measurement of circuit values. The NGS/WDS places the GEM in the Diagnostic State prior to sending an active command. Active commands are used to turn on various output devices. Depending on the type of output being looked at, one of several things can be done: do a visual check, monitor PIDs or conduct a resistance or voltage measurement. The technician should first try to isolate the problem by starting at the suspected faulty component and working backwards through the circuit to the GEM.

Customer Concern Diagnosis Customer concern diagnosis should follow a specific diagnostic procedure, Symptom to System to Component to Cause. EXAMPLE: A customer comes into your dealership with a concern that the illuminated entry is not operating. The Symptom would be that the illuminated entry is not operating. The System would be illuminated entry. The Component and the Cause portion of the procedure would be arrived at through diagnosis. The following process correctly indicates the diagnostic procedure: 1. Customer symptoms should be the primary consideration when performing diagnostic procedures. 2. Verify the Customer Concern. 3. Verify which system or systems are at fault then refer to the appropriate Workshop Manual section. 4. Check OASIS, TSBs and Vehicle History. Then, refer to the appropriate Workshop Manual section. 5. Use the Inspection & Verification chart to determine whether the concern is mechanical or electrical. 6. The the Inspection & Verification chart will initially recommend a visual check of the following items: blown fuse loose or corroded electrical connectors loose or corroded ground damaged switch damaged components Once a visual check of the system has been made, you will, then, be directed to access the GEM for Continuous DTCs and On-Demand DTCs. 7. Proceed to the Symptom or DTC Chart of the appropriate system identified. 8. The Symptom or DTC Chart will indicate an appropriate Pinpoint Test based on the verified concern and you may be directed to monitor PIDs and perform Active Commands. 9. The Pinpoint Test will initially recommend a visual check of the following items: - blown fuse - loose or corroded electrical connectors - loose or corroded ground - damaged switch - damaged component Once a visual check of the system has been made, you will then be directed to access the GEM for Continuous DTC's, On-Demand DTC'S, PID's and Active Commands. After the concern has been diagnosed and corrected, manually erase the DTC(s), operate the vehicle to try to reproduce the concern, then rerun Continuous DTC's and the On-Demand SelfTest.

DIRECTIONS: In this workstation you will use a Digital Multimeter and the WDS Oscilloscope to measure the signals produced by a Hall Effect sensor circuit, a Phototransistor circuit and the Illumination circuits of the headlamp switch. You will also learn how to identify these devices in a Wiring Diagram. Hall Effect sensors are devices that allow current to flow when a magnetic field is present. They may be used to measure RPM and/or the position of moving parts. Hall Effect sensors feature a stationary permanent magnet positioned near the Hall device. When the Hall element is exposed to the magnetic field, the circuit is completed. When the Hall element is shielded from the magnetic field, the circuit opens. Many Hall Effect sensors operate electronically like a simple ground switch. Magnetism, instead of mechanical action, is used to open and close the circuit.

A phototransistor is an electronic device that acts like a simple ground side switch, except it is activated by light. Unlike standard transistors, phototransistors have only two leads. The two leads are the emitter and collector, which are wired into a circuit. When light strikes the base of the transistor, the transistor is forward biased and completes the circuit. Without the light the circuit is open.
