voltage or resistance values using a DVOM while attempting to
reproduce conditions which may cause intermittent fault. A status
change on DVOM indicates a fault has been located.
When using a DVOM to pinpoint faults, monitor voltage reading
with ignition on, or vehicle running. Ensure ignition is in OFF
position or negative battery cable is disconnected when monitoring
circuit resistance. Change in ohmmeter reading during test procedures
indicates area of fault.
TEST PROCEDURES
Intermittent Simulation
To reproduce conditions which cause intermittent fault, use
the following methods:
* Lightly vibrate component.
* Heat component.
* Wiggle or bend wiring harness.
* Spray component with water.
* Remove/apply vacuum source.
Monitor circuit/component voltage or resistance while
simulating intermittent fault conditions. If vehicle is running,
monitor for self-diagnostic codes. Use test results to identify a
faulty component or circuit.

INTRODUCTION
This article covers basic description and operation of engine
performance-related systems and components. Read this article before
diagnosing vehicles or systems with which you are not completely
familiar.
AIR INDUCTION SYSTEM
NON-TURBOCHARGED ENGINES
All Chrysler/Mitsubishi engines with Port Fuel Injection
(PFI), called Multi-Point Injection (MPI) by the manufacturer, use the
same basic air induction system. Remote air filter (with airflow
sensor) is ducted to a plenum-mounted throttle body.
TURBOCHARGED ENGINES
In addition to basic air induction system used on all other
models, turbocharging system components include turbocharger, air-to-
air intercooler, air by-pass valve, wastegate actuator, wastegate
control solenoid valve and intake ducting.
Wastegate Control Solenoid Valve
Engine Control Unit (ECU) energizes solenoid valve,
controlling leakage rate of turbocharger pressure to wastegate
actuator.
COMPUTERIZED ENGINE CONTROLS
Multi-Point Injection (MPI) is a computerized engine control
system which controls fuel injection, ignition timing, idle speed and
emission control systems.
ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT (ECU)
NOTE: Components are grouped into 2 categories. The first category
covers INPUT DEVICES, which control or produce voltage
signals monitored by the Engine Control Unit (ECU). The
second category covers OUTPUT SIGNALS, which are components
controlled by the ECU.
ECU receives and processes signals from input devices. Such
operating conditions as cold starting, altitude, acceleration and
deceleration affect input device signals. Based upon signals received,
ECU sends signals to various components which control fuel injection,
ignition timing, idle speed and emission control systems.
INPUT DEVICES
Vehicles are equipped with different combinations of input
devices. Not all input devices are used on all models. To determine
input device usage on specific models, see appropriate wiring diagram
in M - WIRING DIAGRAMS.
Air Conditioner Switch
When A/C is turned on, signal is sent to ECU. With engine at
idle, ECU increases idle speed through Idle Speed Control (ISC) motor.
Airflow Sensor
Incorporated in airflow sensor assembly, airflow sensor is a
Karmen Vortex-type sensor which measures intake airflow rate.
Intake air flows through tunnel in airflow sensor assembly.
Airflow sensor transmits radio frequency signals across direction of
incoming airflow, downstream of vortex. Intake air encounters vortex,
causing turbulence in tunnel.
Turbulence disrupts radio frequency, causing variations in
transmission. Airflow sensor converts frequency transmitted into a
proportionate electrical signal which is sent to ECU.
Airflow Sensor Assembly
Mounted inside air cleaner, incorporates airflow sensor,
atmospheric pressure sensor and intake air temperature sensor.
Atmospheric (Barometric) Pressure Sensor
Incorporated in the airflow sensor assembly, converts
atmospheric pressure to electrical signal which is sent to ECU. ECU
adjusts air/fuel ratio and ignition timing according to altitude.
Coolant Temperature Sensor
Converts coolant temperature to electrical signal for use by
ECU. ECU uses coolant temperature information for controlling fuel
enrichment when engine is cold.
Crankshaft Angle & TDC Sensor Assembly
Assembly is located in distributor on SOHC engines. On DOHC
engines, which use Direct (or Distributorless) Ignition System (DIS),
assembly is separate unit mounted in place of distributor. Assembly
consists of triggering disc (mounted on shaft) and stationary optical
sensing unit. Camshaft drives shaft, triggering optical sensing unit.
ECU determines crank angle and TDC based on signals received from
optical sensing unit.
Detonation Sensor (Turbo Only)
Located in cylinder block, senses engine vibration during
detonation (knock). Sensor converts vibration into electrical signal.
ECU retards ignition timing based on this signal.
Engine Speed (Tach Signal)
ECU uses ignition coil tach signal to determine engine speed.
Idle Position Switch
On all DOHC engines and Sigma 3.0L, idle position switch is
separate switch mounted on throttle body. On all other models, idle
position switch is incorporated in ISC motor or throttle position
sensor, depending on vehicle application. When throttle valve is
closed, switch is activated. When throttle valve is at any other
position, switch is deactivated. This input from idle position switch
is used by ECU for controlling fuel delivery time during deceleration.
Ignition Timing Adjustment Terminal
Used for adjusting base ignition timing. When terminal is
grounded, ECU timing control function is by-passed, allowing base
timing to be adjusted.
Inhibitor Switch (Automatic Transmission Only)
Inhibitor switch senses position of transmission select
lever, indicating engine load due to automatic transmission
engagement. Based on this signal, ECU commands ISC motor to increase
throttle angle, maintaining optimum idle speed.
Intake Air Temperature Sensor
Incorporated in airflow sensor assembly, this resistor-based
sensor measures temperature of incoming air and supplies air density
information to ECU.
Motor Position Sensor (MPS)
Incorporated in ISC motor (or separate unit on some models),
senses ISC motor plunger position and sends electrical signal to ECU.
Oxygen (O2) Sensor
Located in exhaust system, generates an output voltage.
Output voltage varies with oxygen content of exhaust gas stream. ECU
adjusts air/fuel mixture based on signals from oxygen sensor.
Power Steering Oil Pressure Switch
Detects increase in power steering oil pressure. When power
steering oil pressure increases, switch contacts close, signalling
ECU. ECU commands ISC motor, raising idle speed to compensate for drop
in engine RPM due to power steering load.
TDC Sensor
See CRANKSHAFT ANGLE & TDC SENSOR ASSEMBLY.
Throttle Position Sensor (TPS)
A variable resistor mounted on throttle body. ECU uses
voltage signal received from TPS to determine throttle plate angle.
Vehicle Speed Sensor
Located in speedometer in instrument cluster, uses a reed
switch to sense speedometer gear revolutions. ECU uses gear
revolutions to determine vehicle speed.
OUTPUT SIGNALS
NOTE: Vehicles are equipped with different combinations of
computer-controlled components. Not all components listed
below are used on every vehicle. For theory and operation on
each output component, refer to the system indicated in
