Engine Control Module (ECM)
The ECM is installed in the front passenger side of the engine compartment, on a bracket attached to the engine bulkhead.
The ECM has the capability of adapting its fuel and ignition control outputs in response to several sensor inputs.
The ECM receives inputs from the following:
- Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor
- Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor (4 off)
- Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor (2 off)
- Knock sensor (2 off)
- Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) sensor
- Mass Air Flow and Temperature (MAFT) sensor (2 off)
- Manifold Absolute Pressure and Temperature (MAPT) sensor
- Throttle position sensor
- Heated Oxygen Sensor (HO2S) (6 off)
- Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) sensor
- Ambient Air Temperature (AAT) sensor
- Fuel Rail Pressure and Temperature (FRPT) sensor.
