Ignition and engine management system

Main data and security measures

Ignition coils


4-cylinder petrol engine 1 — the Forward cover of the engine 2 — the Bolt 3 — Prostavka 4 — the Cover of coils of ignition 5 — Bolt М6х25, 9Нм 6 — the ignition Coil 7 — the spark plug Tip 8 — the Spark plug	Engine 111: 28Нм Engine 271: 25Нм 6-cylinder petrol engine 10 — the ignition Coil 11 — the Spark plug, 28Нм 12 — the Bolt, 8Нм 13 — an ignition Cable with the spark plug tip, from the ignition coil to a spark plug

1 — the Forward control unit a choice and registration of a signal (SAM) with a box of relays/safety locks and the relay of system of a podmeshivaniye of secondary air 2 — the Module of the relay of the fan 3 — ECM 4 — the SAM Control unit with a box of relays/safety locks and the starter relay	5 — the Sensor switch of a pedal of coupling 6 — the DLC Socket 7 — the Sensor of provision of a pedal 8 — the Back SAM control unit with a box of relays/safety locks and the relay of the fuel pump

The system of ignition develops sparks which make firing soaked up fuel - an air mix. For this purpose in ignition coils tension 12 In will be transformed to tension of 30000 Century.

The electronic system of direct ignition is a part of a control system of the engine and includes spark plugs, and also ignition coils with the built-in tips of spark plugs. At the 6-cylinder engine of the coil of ignition and tips of spark plugs are connected by a short cable.

Distribution of a current of ignition on candles the block of electronic control operates.

External adjustment of the moment of ignition is not made. If the moment of ignition deviates a preset value, it is necessary to replace the damaged elements.

The system of ignition does not wear out and does not demand service. According to the schedule of maintenance it is required to replace spark plugs only.

The main data on work and sensors of control systems and injection of petrol and diesel engines are stated in the Section Functioning of a control system and injection of the petrol engine.
Basic elements of electric equipment, arrangement of control units are presented by ignition and injection of fuel, sensors, valves and elements of a drive on accompanying illustrations.

Security measures at work with ignition and injection system

For an exception of a travmirovaniye of people and/or damage of system of injection and ignition it is necessary to observe the following:

· Do not concern and do not disconnect an ignition wire at the working engine or at the included starter.
· Disconnect and attach pipelines of system of injection and an ignition wire, and also electric wires of devices of measurement only at the switched-off ignition.
· Do not allow to work with electronic system of ignition to people with a warm stimulator.
· It is impossible to close the plug of 1 coils of ignition on weight.
· At work with turns of start of the engine, for example, at check of pressure of a compression switch off ignition and disunite the socket of the sensor of provision of a cranked shaft.
· Do not attach a control lamp to the plug of 1 coils of ignition.
