The diesel electronic control system allows to reduce fuel consumption and emissions of toxic components with exhaust gases (EG), improve the quality of regulation (accuracy, smoothness and speed) and the stability of the idle speed, reduce the rigidity of the diesel engine working process.

The electronic diesel engine control system consists of sensors and switches, an electronic control unit and actuators that directly affect engine systems.

The completeness of the engine management system with sensors and actuators depends on the toxicity standard that the engine complies with (for example, Euro-3 or Euro-4), the vehicle equipment, and the purpose of the vehicle.

Information about the operating mode and state of the engine enters the control system from sensors that convert the controlled (measured) engine parameters into electrical signals that are convenient for processing and transmission in the electronic control system.

The signals from the sensors are sent to the electronic control unit, which, having processed the information received according to the specified algorithms, issues control signals to the actuators based on the driver's requests and the embedded program.

The control algorithms implemented by the microprocessor of the electronic unit, at each engine operating mode, produce the optimal (best) combination of fuel injection parameters (cyclic delivery and injection advance angle) and air charge (boost pressure and exhaust gas recirculation degree) in terms of fuel consumption and toxicity standards ).

The electronic control unit performs such operations as control of fuel cycling, fuel pressure in the accumulator, control of injection advance angle, control of idle speed, cruise control function, control of elements of subsystems for reducing exhaust toxicity.

To simplify troubleshooting, a self-diagnosis function is built into the electronic control unit, which monitors many operating parameters of both the engine itself and all elements of the control system, and when a malfunction is detected, informs the driver about this by turning on the malfunction indicators on the instrument panel.

Self-diagnosis system

To enable the diagnostic mode, you must turn the ignition key to the "I" position and turn on the test switch.

In this mode, red and yellow indicators light up, in the absence of failures they are inactive. If there is an active fault, the red indicator will flash.

The diagnostic system monitors four engine parameters: coolant level, coolant temperature, oil pressure and air temperature at the intake manifold and deforces the engine if one or more of the above parameters is out of range.

The engine protection system can apply the deboost function to engine torque, engine speed and possible engine shutdown in progressive order.

The ECU stores in memory data on the time of occurrence of events, the duration of operation, extreme pressure and temperature values \u200b\u200bwhen the ECU detects abnormal operating conditions.

Details of the data list are displayed using the programming tools.

The diagnostic test switch is designed to enable and disable the on-board diagnostics mode.

When diagnostic mode is enabled, the stop lamp (STOP) and the warning lamp (ICE) will display all active trouble codes.

The switch for diagnostics and increase/decrease idle speed increments at low speed is a two-function two-position momentary switch, after turning on the diagnostic mode, allows you to navigate through the list of fault codes.

This switch is also used when adjusting the idle speed at low speed.

The default travel step length is 25 RPM in positive and negative increments to idle speed at low RPM.

fig. 1. Instrument panel (bus PAZ-4234-05):

1 - red indicator "engine emergency", movement is prohibited until the cause is eliminated; 2 - green indicator "waiting to start the engine", the engine can only be started after the indicator is turned off; 3 - yellow indicator "engine diagnostics", a malfunction has been detected; 4 - engine diagnostics switch, allows you to move through the list of fault codes; 5 - diagnostic software switch engine verification, designed to enable and disable on-board diagnostics

The system uses four indicator lamps: a stop lamp, a warning lamp, a maintenance lamp, and a start-waiting lamp.

When the rocker switch is set to position “1” (“turn on electrical appliances”), the indicator lamps come on, and after about two seconds they go out, one after the other - this way it confirms that the lamps are in working condition and that they are connected correctly.

In the event of a high coolant temperature, high intake manifold air temperature, low oil pressure or low coolant level, the indicator lights up and starts flashing after a while.

This blinking mode warns that the condition that has occurred has been going on for some time and the subsequent pressure or temperature condition has worsened and the engine is close to a stop condition (ECU engine shutdown is possible).

Warning indicator (ICE) warns of a malfunction and signals the start of flashing codes during on-board diagnostics.

Turning on the lamp indicates a malfunction of the engine, while the vehicle remains in working order (the situation is not an emergency).

It is necessary to carry out maintenance of the vehicle to eliminate the failure.

The stop indicator (STOP) indicates a malfunction of one of the main systems.

During the on-board diagnostics, the flashing of this lamp corresponds to the fault codes detected by the computer.

Turning on the lamp indicates a serious problem.

In this case, the bus engine should be turned off as soon as possible, as far as safety requirements allow.

The service light (KEY) is used to signal the need for service and to warn the driver that the engine fluids are out of specification.

The Start Waiting Indicator (START) warns the driver that a cold start aid is required to ensure proper starting.

Displaying fault codes

To display fault codes, turn off the engine, turn the ignition switch to the “I” position and turn on the diagnostic mode with the diagnostic test switch.

If there are no active faults, the stop and warning lamps remain on but do not flash. But if active fault codes are present, then the ECU starts to display fault codes.

Before the fault code is displayed, the warning lamp turns on, after it is turned off, the computer displays (blinks) the number of the active fault code with the stop lamp (short pauses indicate the end of the character).

When the warning lamp turns on again, the stop lamp starts displaying (flashing) the next number of active fault codes (the function of separating the next fault code from the previous one).

The ECU continues to flash the DTC until the user uses the diagnostic switch to toggle the DTC to the next or previous one.

The control system uses three- and four-digit trouble codes. Diagnostic mode remains active until the diagnostic switch is turned off or the engine is turned on.

External diagnostic tools include:

- INSITE: Windows based computer service tool for Cummins electronic engines.

Designed to assist with engine troubleshooting and troubleshooting.

- Generic Scanners: The module supports generic scanners via public data links J1587 and J1939 for CES 14601.

INSITE allows the user to display both active and inactive fault codes on the display, and to erase only inactive fault codes from the ECU.

INSITE also provides engine monitoring and dedicated diagnostic test facilities.

The data link is activated when the ignition key is turned to the "I" position, regardless of whether the engine is running or not.

The data link is used with tools offered by Cummins.
