1.1 Crank angle sensor signal analysis
1.1.1 Introduction of crank angle sensor and principle (1/2)
About
Sensor
Crank angle sensor is a sensor for locating piston by ECU and necessary to find ignition
time .
If the signal of the crank angle sensor keeps its consistency, then it is hard to find starting
and ending point. Therefore, two teeth are taken out from the crank and it is called Long
Tooth and the rest are called Short Tooth. By using long Tooth, TDC ( Top Dead Center ) is
found.
Contents shown by signal of crank sensor.
1. Ignition time = 360deg * Number of tooth before TDC / Number of tooth at one revolution
of engine.
Ignition time is calculated by number of tooth between the long tooth and peak voltage.
Peak voltage is obtained by measuring signal of crank angle sensor and primary ignition
wave simultaneously.
2. Engine speed (RPM) = 60 / ( Time between long tooth * Number of long tooth at one
revolution of engine)
RPM is calculated by number of long tooth at one revolution of engine.

1.1.1 Introduction of crank angle sensor and principle (2/2)
Sensor type
Three mostly used crank angle sensor.
1. Optical Sensor : The sensor is used on a single-bodied cam shaft with a hole on the
disk. The signal is recognized when the signal passes through the hole while the disk is
revolving. This particular sensor is destructive by heat and humidity and makes lots of
noise. ( This is the only sensor that disk for crank angle sensor revolve 1 revolution while
crank shaft rotate 2 revolution. )
2. Magnetic Sensor : If the electromagnetic power generated by coil is intercepted by
revolution of a single-bodied camshaft with target wheel (normally outside of flywheel ),
then the voltage is generated. The sensor is using this voltage for signal..
3. Hall type sensor : The circuit is included in the sensor inside. This sensor electron
The circuit included inside the sensor discharge the electron. The single bodied crank
shaft with target wheel (normally outside of fly wheel ) disturbs discharging of electron
and generate the voltage. This voltage is used for signal.

About Sensor
CAM angle sensor is the sensor to indicate the TDC of each cylinders by ECU.
This sensor is necessary to calculate injection phase. We can calculate TDC
from the crank angle sensor but cylinder number. Therefore ECU recognize the
TDC right after cam angle signal. ECU use the cam signal located between two
long tooth. If the signal of cam is located inside the long tooth, then ECU detects
it as a fault.

In order to reduce the emission, injection should be finished before intake valve open. If
the fuel is injected on the hot intake valve, then fuel is well vaporized and this helps good
combustion.
Therefore, cam signal is used to identify the cylinder number.
In case of no spark time adjustment type,we can know it by comparing cam signal

1.3 Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) signal analysis
1.3.1 Introduction of TPS and principle
TPS
About Sensor
TPS is the sensor to know how much accelerate the acceleration pedal. If the line
of this sensor is broken, then more than 4.7V or 2.1V of constant signal voltage
can be produced depending on ECU internal circuit..
Sensor type
Algorithm
Wiper type is the mostly used signal sensing type by now.
In order to response to the driver’s will quickly, fuel injection is controlled depending on
the acceleration speed and pedal value. If the pedal value is more than 50%, then
oxygen sensor feedback control is stopped to control the engine with more torque.
In case of sensor failure, intake air sensor is substituted for TPS. Therefore, fast accel
and decel can not be detected with sensor failure and hesitation can be occurred.

1.4 Intake Air Flow Sensor Signal Analysis
1.4.1 Introduction of Intake Air Flow Sensor and Algorithm
About Sensor
Sensor type
Algorithm
This is the sensor to see how much air flow is coming into the cylinder. It is very
important to calculate injection time. If the line is broken, then there are
occasions when output voltage is over 4.7V depending on internal circuit like TPS.
Mostly used sensors by now are the MAP sensor ( Intake manifold pressure check ),
MAF (Mass Air Flow :the resistance is changed when heated tip is cooled by inducted
air )and Karman Vortex (This sensor monitors vortices generated as the intake air flows
past vortex generators. Air flow is calculated by the frequency of ultrasonic waves that
are changed depending on the amount of vortices. )
The fuel quantity is decided by the air flow and the injector opening time decides fuel
quantity. The calculated fuel amount is compensated more precisely by oxygen sensor
feedback compensation. In case of air flow sensor error, the substitute value is
calculated by engine speed and TPS.

Accent 2000MY vehicle is hard to start. Even if it is started, power is lack
with acceleration and exhaust gas is black color.
MAP signal is very high in idle state but scanner identify normal idle state.
High MAP signal was detected because internal EGR was increased by exhaust pipe
blocking. Due to that, ECU identify big air flow and exhaust pressure make high.
It led to over fuel enrichment and poor acceleration due to lack of power.
In case of MAP equipped vehicles,if exhaust pipe is blocked,this phenomenon is
always occurred. MAP signal is increased proportion to exhaust pipe blocking status.

1.5 Oxygen sensor signal analysis
1.5.1 Introduction of oxygen sensor and priciple
About Sensor
This is the sensor to compensate the fuel injection to get the stoichiometric air
fuel ratio (14.6). The different voltage is generated depending on fuel richness
( oxygen richness ). According to this voltage variation, fuel injection is added or
subtracted so that always relevant fuel is injected.
Sensor
type
Mostly used sensor now is the Zirconia ( It generate the voltage from 0V to 1V by oxygen
richness ), Titania ( It generate different resistance by oxygen richness ) and UEGO
sensor ( It is used for lean burn engine and it generate different current by oxygen
richness ). Titania and Zirconia sensors are classified with and without heater.
Algorithm
Oxygen sensor produce below 0.5V with rich oxygen( lean fuel) and over 0.5V with lean
oxygen (rich fuel). Using this, ECU inject more fuel when oxygen sensor voltage is
below 0.5V and reduce fuel as soon as voltage is over 0.5V. By continuing this control,
supplied fuel is getting close to stoichiometirc air fuel ratio. This is the feedback control.
In case of sensor failure, fuel is supplied by basic calculation.

Algorithm
The fuel quantity is decided by the air flow and the injector opening time decides fuel

The principles of opening ( open by electromagnetic power and close by spring force )are
mostly same. But it is classified into orifice and pintle type by injection hole.

About EGR
EGR type
This is a valve to add exhaust gas into
the cylinder and so the combustion
temperature is reduced.
Reduced combustion temperature results
reducing of nitrous-oxide emission.
Exhaust gas is supplied through this
valve by under-pressure of surge tank.
Mostly used one is mechanical type that the valve is opened by under-pressure of surge
tank as soon as solenoid valve is opened. And the solenoid valve is opened by ON/OFF
system or duty system. In case of EEGR(Electric EGR) type, the EGR valve is opened
by electromagnetic power..
Electric EGR valve
Algorithm
Mechanical EGR valve
EGR valve is opened within the range(2 - 7%) that is not to give big influence on engine
operation. Opening value is controlled not to have big engine vibration. Therefore, in
case of ON/OFF type, ON signal is activated in the area (engine speed & intake air
flow )where no engine problem is found. With the EGR gas, ignition angle should be
retarded about 4 - 8 degree
If the EGR gas is provided into the
cylinder, combustion temperature
is reduced and it is effective on
reducing of nitrous-oxide emission.

wave
2.3 Analysis of Ignition secondary wave
2.4 Field Examples
66
Carman scanFor EMS PROfesor
2.1 General explanation & principle of Ignition secondary wave
The calculated time for ignition system by ECU are spark time and dwell time.
The dwell time is to induct current to primary coil to get
60A and it is compensated by battery power.
Dwell time is the power charging duration of primary coil.
The longer dwell time is the higher current. That means,
if this power charging duration of primary coil is long,
then current is high and ignition energy (E = VA) is high
so that combustion in the cylinder is
stable with strong spark energy.
But the problem is that electric energy is
increase as current is increase. If it is too big
then there will be a problem with endurance of
ignition coil.
So, with good endurance of
ignition coil, we can increase dwell time, which
gives high current.
But, as it needs more money to increase
endurance with current ECU that have power
TR inside, current is controlled to a certain
value (generally 6A) as fast as possible.
Therefore eclectic current is changed very
fast by dwell time and there is big difference
of electric current by small dwell time change.
Then what is a countermeasure of carmaker?
67
Carman scanFor EMS PROfesor
The countermeasure is to prevent over current, but there is no countermeasure for low current.
Because over current can give damage on ignition coil or power TR while low current does not give big
problem with small secondary voltage and small ignition spark.
The reason why it is not a big problem is as
following.
The secondary voltage signal is almost similar at
each engine operating conditions, but generation
and destruction of instant high voltage is very
various. Especially, it is depending on combustion
chamber shape and engine operating conditions
(temperature, airflow and mixture condition) and
even with same conditions, it can not be regular.
Therefore, in my opinion, to investigate engine
condition with secondary voltage signal can give
only few information such as problem of spark plug
and coil wiring or decreasing of compression rate.
If you want to understand the combustion condition
exactly, you have to look at cylinder pressure.
Some of electric control unit maker and carmaker’s research center use the sensor that equipped inside
the spark plug to see cylinder pressure variation.
Back to main subject, in fact, to say no problem with small ignition energy is dangerous. To say exact
meaning, when engine is in idle at cold state (Coolant below -10C), energy of approximately 1J is
required and energy of approximately 1 – 3mJ is required for warm-up engine with oxygen sensor
feedback control. And more energy is required during acceleration or for rich mixture or for lean mixture.
But normally required energy for warm-up engine is one-hundredths of cold engine.
As carmaker make there ignition system to get enough energy at cold state, if there is no trouble with
ignition system then there will be no big problem with low current at warm-up engine. Then what is the
effect when we limit over current on ignition system?
68
Carman scanFor EMS PROfesor
If we limit the current then we can see that voltage increase by a step. This does not give any influence on
engine (combustion condition), but ignition system has to consume more energy by itself. And this current
size is depending on battery voltage.
So, according to battery voltage, ECU gives different
dwell time.
As a reference, ECU has several power
supply lines with different purposes and the line for
battery voltage recognition is used to compensate battery
voltage.
What if battery voltage is changed due to high resistance
or noise in the battery voltage line, which is connected to
ECU?
Then ignition sparks for each cylinder is irregular due to frequent changing
of ignition enrage by irregular dwell time.
This phenomenon happens more in hot summer with complex power supply wiring to ECU.
Then what will be influence by this
phenomenon? First, engine
combustion is unstable
due to unstable current flow. And this
leads engine vibration. In case of
knock sensor, engine
vibration generates knock sensor
signal and ECU detect this signal as
knocking and retard spark time.
< Reference>
ECU analyzes knock sensor signal frequency to define real knocking frequency (generally 8-13KHz) from
the engine. Yet, engine vibration due to different ignition power between each cylinder can be detected
as knocking.
How can the technician find out this condition that has very short difference of dwell time? It is difficult.
But it can be suspected that dwell time is unstable when battery voltage from the power line that
recognized by ECU is irregular.
If engine vibration is severe with that condition, connect power line for voltage recognition to the ECU
directly with one line.

2.3 Analysis of Ignition Secondary Wave
A. Measurement of Ignition primary wave.
Ignition secondary wave shows discharging status according to the status of the cylinder.
As it has a complicated relation with status of components and wires which control electrical energy at
first coil, status of second coil which is induced by high voltage and status of mixed gas in the cylinders
representing how much thermal electrons discharge while being discharged finally, To confirm whether
status of supplying electrical energy to ignition system is good or not, it is desirable to check the current
from first coil at each cylinder.
To generate enough ignition energy at secondary voltage, there must be enough current at first coil.
Although this current is different according to the sorts of the vehicle, generally 60.5A is considered as
a standard.
The
point
keeping in mind
is despite this
current is weak,
ignition
secondary wave
may not have
any problem.
If air-fuel ratio in the normal temperature (over 20 °C) is closer to stoichiometric , Ignition by secondary
voltage is possible with approximately 1/200~1/1000 energy of the ignition energy in the cold
temperature (below -5°C).
In case that the current flows weak , but ignition secondary wave has no problem,
Ignition secondary wave must be confirmed whether it is normal state at rapid acceleration, cold
temperature, both rich and lean of fuel condition.
Ignition energy at normal temperature and stoichiometric condition : 1~2mJ
Cold temperature and Rich fuel: approximately 1J

Most important point is dwell time(depends on battery voltage). If battery voltage is 13.5V the dwell time
is 3.0~3.5msec. Cylinder by cylinder deviation(over 20%) check is required to know the normal or not. If
the deviation is more than 20%, it means coil, power TR or wire has a problem..
Also check the ECU recognized battery voltage is stable(within 3V). Because the dwell time can be

B. Measurement of Ignition
Secondary wave
Ignition secondary wave means discharging to high
voltage from electric energy at first coil. Especially
ignition system in automobile, discharging time &
discharging voltage level is affected more by status of
the mixed gas in the cylinders and plug than electric
energy from first coil.
When secondary high voltage (approximately
20000~30000V) is induced instantly and flows, the
flow means discharging, time is discharging time,
Voltage is discharging voltage.
When the secondary voltage generates, this energy
separates carbon and hydrogen from constituent of
fuel.
<Ignition secondary wave: classification of each wave>
While this constituent of fuel separates,
electrons are generated. It’s called thermalelectron.
Discharging voltage combusted normally
from the cylinder is a voltage discharging
through those thermal-electrons.
Since level and time of the discharging
voltage are affected by the temperature and
shape (vortex) in the cylinder, air-fuel ratio of
the mixture, and compression ratio, it is hard
to fix absolute value. So it must be analyzed
through comparing each cylinder.

. Comparing each cylinder
(1) After a current flowed, if peak (voltage of surge) is low or discharging time is short
and high:
This means that electric energy through discharged thermal-electron isn’t discharging
well,while molecule separates from fuel.Electric energy trying to ignite isn’t for fuel
combustion , it’s kind of discharging phenomenon through plug ejja. So misfire occurs
in the cylinder.
A.Confirm the status of plug
(attached carbon, clearance)
When a peak voltage is generated,
some parts of voltages flow on the
attached carbon in the plug tip. So
it gets weak to separate molecule.
In case that discharging voltage
flows through carbon to plug.
B.Check plug wiring and status of coil
In case that connection to plug
and high voltage wire and coil status
aren’t good , peak voltage becomes weak.
Then electric energy to separate
fuel molecule becomes weak because
Thermal-electrons generated from fuel
are little so that resistance
discharges large state..
c.Check if the mixture ratio of fuel is too lean
In case that fuel is lean, even more electric energy is needed to generate thermalelectrons separated from fuel molecule.thus peak voltage generated near
stoichiometric with normal fuel isn’t enough to generate thermal-electron so that
resistance dischargelarge state
d.Check if the compression ratio is too high
In case compression is high, far more electric energy is needed to generate
thermal-electrons separated from fuel molecules.
Thus peak voltage generated near normal compression ratio isn’t enough to generate
thermal-electron so that resistance discharges large state. It isn’t for normal case.
it’s for especially reorganized vehicle. Just do interpret that as theoretical aspect.
In 4 cylinder engine , If one cylinder has some troubles, the troubles are made
in two cylinders at the same time. Therefore when measuring wave with
Carman scan, choose “one of NO1.and NO3.” or “ one of NO2. and NO4.”
then measure 2cylinders at the same time.
75
Carman scanFor EMS PROfesor
(2)After a current flowed,if a peak(voltage of surge) is low and discharging time is long:
Although electric discharge is well,it causes power reduction because discharging
electric energy (spark) gets weak and long so that combustion timing of fuel gets long
and flame spread leading to combust between fuel particles gets weak
a. Check status of plug (clearance of tip is too small)
b. Check compression pressure of cylinder is low
c. Check the mixture ratio is too rich
<Reference>
More detail refers to chap 6.”6.3 uniform ignition energy to each cylinder.
In 4 cylinder engine , If one cylinder has some troubles, the troubles are made in two cylinders at
the same time. Therefore when measuring wave with Carman scan, choose “one of NO1.and
NO3.” or “ one of NO2. and NO4.” then measure 2cylinders at the same time.
76

Ignition Energy Discharging Time
For ignition, high voltage must be generated and sparked on ignition plug tip in cylinder
But actually to combust fuel in cylinder, discharging must be done continuously for some
time.Because spark from combusted fuel in cylinder must transfer flame to other surrounding fuel. If
intake air is little (idle, deceleration), air playing a role on transferring
flame and fuel mixture gets lack and compression ratio is low in cylinder so that
there is high possibility to occur misfire.
Actually in US regulation (OBD2: On Board
Diagnostic2), if misfire rate is over
regulation on exhaust gas, ECU recognizes
as a malfunction
It is written that “if intake air is little, misfire
exempts from regulation
So to speak, this means it admits air lack
case is inevitable on air-fuel mixture
transferring flame to the cylinder.
But if enough secondary voltage keeps for
some time (about 1,5msec), these misfire
decreases.
There is some product (CDI) making
secondary voltage strong and discharging
long time. The purpose of those products is
on that.
Compression pressure in
according to ignition timing.
cylinder
Although the direct way to keep
discharging time is to produce CDI, there
is also indirect way to keep pressure in
cylinder high. One of them is to retard
ignition timing.
