ENGINE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM - V8

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION 18-2-37

There are eight IACV diagnostic checks performed by the ECM:

l

Output short circuit to earth – opening coil

l

Output short circuit to battery supply – opening coil

l

Output open circuit – opening coil

l

Output short circuit to earth – closing coil

l

Output short circuit to battery voltage – closing coil

l

Output open circuit – closing coil

l

Blocked IACV – rev/min error low (engine speed must be 100 rev/min less than the target speed, engine load 
less than 2.5 and the measured air flow more than 10 kg/h less than the expected air flow for a fault condition to 
be flagged).

l

Blocked IACV – rev/min error high (the engine speed must be more than 180 rev/min greater than the target 
speed and the measured air flow more than 10 kg/h greater than the expected air flow for a fault condition to be 
flagged).

Should a malfunction of the component occur, the following fault codes may be evident and can be retrieved by 
TestBook.
