General Description 6.7L/3.2L Diesel Engines
The 6.7L is a V8 engine designed to meet customer expectations of high horsepower and torque with exceptional
fuel economy and low NVH. It must do this while meeting the tough emissions standards set by the EPA and
CARB.
Some of the technologies employed to meet these diverse criteria include a Variable Geometry Turbocharger
(VGT), common rail fuel injection system, electronically controlled, cooled EGR, a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) ,
Selective Catalytic Reduction catalyst (SCR), Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) injection system, and a diesel particulate
filter (DPF).
The system schematic on the next page shows the path of the air as it is compressed by the turbocharger, cooled
by the air-to-coolant intercooler, and mixed with the cooled EGR gases. The state of this compressed and heated
air is sensed by the manifold absolute pressure (MAP) sensor just before it enters the cylinders and the two
temperature sensors that represent Charge Air Cooler Outlet temperature (CACT1) and EGR Cooler outlet
temperature (EGRCOT). The exhaust gas pressure is measured by the exhaust backpressure (EP) sensor before
it exits through the turbocharger. The exhaust after treatment system consists of a DOC, a SCR, a DPF and a
muffler.
An electronic, proportional valve controls EGR rates with an integral position sensor (EGRP). Flows are
determined by valve position and the amount that backpressure exceeds boost pressure. An EGR throttle
(EGRTP) is used for regeneration control as well as to optimize the boost pressure vs. backpressure levels.
Fuel injection pressure is measured by the high-pressure fuel rail sensor (FRP). Injection pressure is controlled by
the high pressure pump and two regulating valves, a Pressure Control Valve (PCV), and a Fuel Metering Unit
(MeUn), formerly known as Volume Control Valve (VCV).
Engine speed (N) and crankshaft position are determined by the crankshaft position sensor (CKP) which senses a
60 minus 2 tooth target wheel. Camshaft position is determined by the camshaft position sensor (CMP), which
senses the profile of a multiple lobed camshaft.
Atmospheric pressure is determined by the Barometric Pressure sensor (BARO) mounted internally in the Engine
Control Module (ECM).
During engine operation, the ECM calculates engine speed from the crankshaft position sensor. The ECM
controls engine operation by controlling the piezo injector opening and closing times as well as the pressure at
which the fuel is injected, thereby controlling fuel quantity and timing. Simultaneously, airflow is modulated by
controlling the turbocharger vane position.
Fuel quantity is controlled by injector “on time” (pulse width) and the fuel rail pressure. Desired engine speed is
determined from the position of the accelerator pedal.
The 3.2L I5 engine has the same technologies and engine layout employed on the 6.7L V8 engine with some
exceptions. See engine diagram below.

NON-METHANE HYDROCARBON (NMHC) CONVERTING CATALYST MONITOR
The Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) is monitored to ensure it is capable of converting hydrocarbons and carbon
monoxide. The monitor is only run during aftertreatment regeneration events. After entering regen, there is a short
delay to allow the DOC to achieve light-off temperature. Then the exotherm is monitored for a short period of time
and normalized versus an expected exotherm (a function of post-injection fuel quantity and ambient air temp). The
exotherm is defined as the DOC outlet temperature (EGT12) minus the DOC inlet temperature (EGT11). The
normalized exotherm is filtered for a short period of time, and then compared to a threshold. If the normalized
exotherm is below the threshold, a fault is indicated. No other preconditioning is required.
This monitor applies to >10,000 GVW 6.7L pickups, all 6.7L chassis cabs, and all 3.2L products.
FORD MOTOR COMPANY REVISION DATE: DECEMBER 22, 2014 09.01.00.02-PAGE 13 OF 186
Diesel Oxidation Catalyst Efficiency Monitor – Intrusive
The Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (DOC) is monitored to ensure it is capable of converting hydrocarbons and carbon
monoxide. While entry conditions are met, a small quantity of fuel is post-injected late in the combustion cycle
(similar injection timing as DPF regen). The actual exothermic efficiency is calculated from the temperature rise
across the DOC and normalized by the expected exothermic efficiency (based on quantity of fuel injected), which
results in a ratio having values between 0-1. If the normalized exotherm is below the threshold, a fault is indicated.
No other preconditioning is required.
The Intrusive DOC Monitor is only applicable on <10,000 GVW 6.7L pickups.
FORD MOTOR COMPANY REVISION DATE: DECEMBER 22, 2014 09.01.00.02-PAGE 14 OF 186
Diesel Oxidation Catalyst DPF Regeneration Assistance Monitor
The DOC is monitored to ensure it is capable of generating a sufficient exotherm to allow DPF regeneration events
by burning the soot which is stored in the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). This is accomplished with the same
diagnostic described above for the DOC Catalyst Efficiency Monitor.
The DOC in this system is not utilized to provide any changes in the feedgas constituency that would aid in the
proper SCR operation.
The SCR catalyst is monitored to ensure it is capable of NOx conversion. NOx concentrations upstream and
downstream of the SCR are measured with NOx sensors. Using these concentrations, the cumulative efficiency of
the SCR catalyst is calculated and compared to a threshold. If the cumulative efficiency is below this threshold at
the end of the sample period (approx 1 minute), a fault will be indicated.
The reductant, Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), which is used as part of the SCR catalyst reaction, is monitored to
ensure the tank is not refilled with an improper reductant. After the SCR Catalyst Efficiency Monitor has completed
and the SCR has been determined to be functional, the efficiency monitor continues to calculate the cumulative
efficiency of the system, with a calibrated wait time between iterations of the monitor. Successive values for
cumulative efficiency are included in two filtering routines, one for short term efficiency and the other for long term
efficiency. The short term efficiency must be less than a threshold (0.35-0.55, depending on application) and the
difference between short and long term conversion efficiency must be greater than a threshold (0.10).

Selective Catalyst Reduction Feedback Control Monitors
The SCR system is monitored to ensure the proper closed loop control of the reductant injection. As part of the
reductant injection control, a correction factor is adapted to account for long term drift of the system (injector, etc).
This correction factor is monitored continuously. If the correction factor reaches a threshold in the positive or
negative direction for a sufficient period of time, a fault will be indicated.
A SCR Time to Closed Loop monitor is implemented to ensure that SCR feedback occurs when expected. Once
entry conditions are met, a timer is incremented. If the fraction of time in closed loop control is less than a
threshold, a fault is indicated.
Additionally, the system has a temperature controller that increased the tailpipe temperatures under certain
situations to improve the function of the SCR system. This controller is also monitored.

P249C: The error is set as soon as the fraction of closed loop operation vs expected is less than the
threshold. The monitor needs to run for 300 seconds to call it complete.

Selective Catalyst Reduction Tank Level
The SCR system is monitored to ensure the level of DEF in the reductant tank is sufficient to achieve system
performance. As part of the DEF level customer warning system, a fault will be recorded when the calculated
mileage remaining of DEF is equal to 200 miles (The discrepancy between actual and reported mileage is due to
expected tolerance of calculations). The calculated mileage remaining is derived from the three pin level sensor in
the tank and the volume of DEF commanded to be injected over distance. This fault will be erased once the
system senses a DEF refill event.

MISFIRE MONITOR
The 3.2L and 6.7L Diesel engine utilizes a Hall Effect sensor (CKP) that processes the edges of a 60-2 tooth
stamped target wheel mounted on the crankshaft. The software gets an edge every 3 degrees and these edges
are used for fuel injection timing, fuel quantity control, and the calculation of engine speed. A software algorithm
corrects for irregularities of the teeth of the target wheel to improve crankshaft signal resolution. A second Hall
effect sensor is used to processes the edges of the three-lobed camshaft (CMP) target. The CMP signal and the
window of 2 missing teeth on the crankshaft target wheel indicate proper camshaft to crankshaft position for correct
cylinder timing.
The Misfire Monitor divides two rotations of the crankshaft into 16 half-segments, each 45 degrees of crankshaft
rotation. The crankshaft speed shows increases due to combustion of fuel in the cylinder followed by decreases
due to friction and other forces between cylinder firing events. The location of the half-segments is chosen such
that for each cylinder one half-segment contains the majority of the higher crankshaft speed values (the "high" half-
segment) and the other half-segment the majority of the lower crankshaft speed values (the "low" half-segment).
The range of crankshaft speed within each half-segment is averaged. The sum of the eight low half-segment
speeds is subtracted from the sum of the eight high half-segment speeds and the result divided by eight to get an
average increase in speed due to combustion. The Misfire Monitor then calculates the difference between the high
and low half-segments for a specific cylinder combustion event and increments a misfire counter for the firing
cylinder if this value is less than 20% of the average increase in speed due to combustion described above.
The Misfire Monitor collects blocks of data consisting of 20 crankshaft rotations. Upon achieving the correct entry
conditions for the Misfire Monitor as described below, the first block of 20 rotations is discarded to ensure stable
idle operation. All subsequent blocks of data are counted unless vehicle conditions change such that the entry
conditions are no longer satisfied. In this case, any data in the current partial block are discarded, along with the
data from the block immediately prior, as stable idle cannot be ensured for these data. The Misfire Monitor
completes once 50 valid blocks (1000 crankshaft revolutions) have been collected, and a fault is reported if a
cylinder shows 350 or more misfire events (out of 500 possible combustion events) in this time.
Certain engine operating parameters are monitored to ensure misfire operates in a region that yields accurate
misfire results. The table below outlines the entry conditions required for executing the misfire monitor algorithm.

Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Range Check:
When fuel rail pressure is controlled by the Pressure Control Valve, the Pressure Control Valve signal needed to
maintain rail control is compared to an expected value. An adaptation factor for the Pressure Control Valve is
calculated from the difference between observed and expected control values. Inaccuracy in the Rail Pressure
Sensor Signal Slope is a potential cause of inaccuracy in the needed Pressure Control Valve signal along
with physical errors in the PCV itself. If the adaptation factor required for the Pressure Control Valve
exceeds a minimum or maximum control limit, then a code is set for rail pressure slope out of acceptable
range.

Fuel system pressure control:
The pressure in the fuel rail is controlled by a closed-loop control strategy that is always active during vehicle
operation. Two controllers may be used to control the rail pressure: the Pressure Control Valve and the Volume
Control Valve. The Pressure Control Valve is used to control pressure at engine start and when fuel temperature
is low. The Volume Control Valve is used to control fuel pressure under most other conditions. A third operation
mode allows fuel rail pressure to be controlled by a combination of the Pressure Control Valve and Volume Control
Valve; this mode is typically used to transition from control by one device to the other and in regimes where low
fuel volume is required.
The fuel rail pressure is controlled either with the Pressure Control Valve, the Volume Control Valve, or both,
depending upon engine operation condition. The high and low Fuel Rail Pressure Monitors detect when there is
an excessive deviation from the desired fuel pressure when the controller has reached a control limit or when the
minimum or maximum allowable rail pressures are exceeded.

Injection Timing / Injection quantity
Fuel Balancing Control is an algorithm designed to reduce differences in injected fuel quantity from cylinder to
cylinder. The increase in crankshaft speed due to individual cylinder combustion events is measured. The
amount of fuel injected to each cylinder is then adjusted up or down to minimize the difference in increase in
crankshaft speed from cylinder to cylinder. The total amount of fuel injected among all cylinders remains constant.
The concept is shown in the graphic below.
FBC operates in closed-loop control in an engine speed range of 500-3000 rpm, and a commanded injection
quantity of 3.5 – 90 mg/stroke. The maximum allowed correction in fuel quantity for an individual cylinder is given
by the following table.

Fuel Mass Observer (Global Fuel Bias):
Fuel Mass Observer (FMO) is an algorithm used to detect deviations in performance of all injectors from nominal.
The oxygen percentage as measured by the tailpipe oxygen sensor is compared to a modeled oxygen percentage
based upon current fuel, boost, and EGR settings. Deviation between the observed and modeled oxygen
percentage is expressed in terms of the error in fueling required to explain the deviation. This calculated error in
fueling is then divided by the current requested fueling level to generate a ratio of percentage error in fueling. This
fueling ratio is then filtered over time. If the filtered error in fueling ratio exceeds minimum or maximum limits, then
a code is set.

Feedback control:
Zero Fuel Calibration (ZFC) is an algorithm used to compensate for deviations in individual injector performance
from nominal. In an overrun/decel fuel shut-off condition, fuel rail pressure is set to 300 bar and small injections are
made from a single injector. The observed acceleration in crankshaft speed is detected and a regression line
generated to predict the fueling required to achieve the expected acceleration. If the calculated fueling required to
generate the expected acceleration in crankshaft speed falls outside the allowable control limits for the system, an
addition routine is called to very precisely learn the adjustment to injector energizing time required to achieve
expected acceleration. This information is then used to adjust all pilot injections on that injector to ensure correct
fuel delivery. If the absolute energizing time observed for the test injection to yield the expected acceleration
exceeds minimum or maximum limits, a code is set.

EXHAUST GAS SENSOR MONITOR
The NOx controller module is mounted to the vehicle frame under the body. It is used to control the feed gas NOx
sensor mounted in diesel after-treatment exhaust system upstream of the SCR and DPF on a Chassis Certified
Vehicle and upstream of the SCR only on a Dynamometer Certified Vehicle. It communicates to the ECU via
HSCAN to report NOx concentrations or OBDII errors.
The controller module consists of RAM, ROM, EEPROM, Ip1 circuit, Ip2 circuit, Rpvs circuit, heater driver,
microprocessor, and temperature sensor. The RAM temporarily stores information obtained from the sensing
element during operation. The ROM and EEPROM store sensor and controller module calibration coefficients
obtained during the manufacturing process. The Ip2 circuit adjusts the pumping current in the sensing element’s
Ip2 circuit for NOx detection. The Ip2 circuit consists of 2 bands: a wide range and a narrow range. The Rpvs
circuit is a measurement of the resistance of the Vs cell of the sensor element. This measurement is used to
estimate the temperature of the sensing element. The heater driver supplies a PWM voltage to the heater portion
of the sensing element to maintain the element’s target operational temperature. PID feedback from Rpvs is used
to control and maintain the element temperature. The microprocessor processes all of the inputs from the sensing
element and outputs to the CAN circuit. The temperature sensor in the controller module is used for compensating
the temperature dependency of circuit components and for OBD rationality checks.
The NOx controller module interfaces with the vehicle via a power source, signal ground, power ground, CAN-H
and CAN-L. The compensated NOx concentration; Rpvs, pressure compensation factors, sensor/module OBD
(including monitor completion flags), module temperature, software ID, CALID, and CVN are communicated via
HSCAN to the vehicle PCM.

measurement chamber. As the exhaust gasses get richer or leaner, the amount of oxygen that must be pumped in

The particulate matter sensor (PMS) on the 6.7L diesel is used to detect high levels of particulate emissions
resulting from a leak in the particulate filter. The sensor consists of an exhaust mounted probe and a sensor

The PMS probe consists of three internal parts: a heater, a temperature sensor and a set of particulate matter
measurement electrodes. The sensor operates by accumulating exhaust particles in the gap separating the
electrodes. As particles accumulate the resistance between the electrodes drops, and an electric current can flow
due to the voltage potential applied. The duration of accumulation to a certain current threshold determines the
leakage of the particulate filter. Because particles accumulate on the sensor, it must be regenerated occasionally
by activating the sensor heater. The temperature of the part is controlled with feedback from the temperature
sensor, and measurement of sensor temperature is used to correct sensor output for variation in resistivity of
particulate matter as a function of temperature.
The PMS module handles basic circuit checks for the sensor components. Standard open and short circuit
diagnostics are run on the temperature sensor and the heater by the PMS module and reported to the PCM via
CAN messages.

In addition to basic circuit checks the temperature sensor in the PMS is monitored for offset and plausibility
compared to other exhaust gas temperature sensors. The temperature offset check occurs at key-on after a long
engine-off soak to ensure all sensors have stabilized to ambient temperature. The PMS temperature is compared
to the average reading of three other exhaust temperature sensors. During PMS measurement, the sensor
temperature is compared to a model of the sensor temperature to check plausibility. The model estimates PMS
temperature based on exhaust gas temperature and exhaust pipe wall temperature. This monitor only runs while
the PMS is not actively heating and sufficient time has elapsed since the last heating event to ensure that the
sensor temperature has stabilized to the exhaust conditions.

The resistance of the PMS heater is monitored as a surrogate for the performance of the heater. When the PMS is
powered up, two short pulses are sent to the heater during which the current through the heater is measured.
Using the measured supply voltage, the resistance of the heater can be calculated. The resistance is compared to
a threshold based on the sensor temperature and reported over CAN.

Because the sensor electrode is normally open circuit and can exhibit a short circuit in case it is heavily loaded with
PM, it poses unique challenges for on-board diagnostics. Monitoring the electrode for open circuit involves taking
advantage of movement of sodium ions through the hot ceramic substrate of the sensor electrode. At sensor
regeneration temperature, movement of the ions causes a current which is measured to ensure the integrity of the
sensor electrodes. This form of open circuit check takes place at the end of sensor regeneration while the
electrode is still hot. The check for short circuit takes place after the sensor has cooled below 425 °C immediately
following regeneration when the sensor is sure to be free of any PM. During sensor operation, the positive
electrode of the sensor is monitored to ensure the electrode supply voltage is in range. If the voltage drops due to
a hardware failure in the sensor, a fault will be set. If a short circuit occurs in the electrode and sensor regeneration
will be performed to ensure the short is not due to accumulation of soot, then a fault set.

Particulate Matter Sensor Sampling Monitor
To operate correctly, the PMS must have unrestricted exposure to exhaust gas. A monitor for PM sensor sampling
checks the sensor once per drive for plugging with excessive soot and proper installation in the exhaust. The
monitor evaluates the change in voltage required to maintain a constant sensor heater temperature for changes in
exhaust gas velocity. In the event that the voltage, calculated from heater duty cycle, changes less than a
calibrated threshold for certain magnitude changes in exhaust gas flow, a fault for a PM sensor sampling error is
set. The sampling tube monitor runs during cold start before exhaust dewpoint is reached while the PMS is
operating at a low heating level for contamination protection.

Particulate Matter Sensor Regeneration Monitor
To burn off accumulated particulates, the PMS must occasionally regenerate. This is accomplished by heating the
sensor element to 785 °C for a period of time. The success of sensor regeneration is monitored by evaluating if
the sensor is able to maintain the regeneration temperature for the time required to ensure all accumulated
material is removed. The monitoring only takes place if vehicle conditions are such that the sensor is capable of
regeneration. For example, the PMS may not be able to regenerate if the battery voltage is below normal and the
engine is at peak power. This is because at the reduced voltage, the PMS heater may not be capable of providing
the power required to reach the setpoint temperature.

Particulate Matter Filter Monitor Using PM Sensor
The DPF is monitored to ensure no leaks have developed in the substrate. The monitor runs anytime the filter is
not being regenerated and the exhaust is sufficiently warm to allow operation of the PMS. In addition, the NOx,
exhaust gas temperature and gas velocity must be at normal operating levels.
The DPF efficiency monitor compares the response of the tailpipe mounted PMS to a model of the expected PMS
response to a threshold leak DPF. If the sensor response exceeds the model response, the DPF is interpreted as
leaking more than the threshold and an error flag is set. The PMS response is a time required to a threshold
current, 12 microamps. The modeled sensor response provides the estimated time the PM sensor should reach
the threshold current as a function of the vehicle operating condition. The leakage rate of the DPF is indicated with
a metric derived from how close to the 12 microamp threshold the observed sensor current got at the point in time
the sensor model indicates the current threshold should have been reached for a sensor measuring an emission
threshold DPF.

The results of the DPF monitor are reported as a ratio of the PMS sensor current observed at the time of monitor
completion and the maximum sensor current possible for either an OK or failed DPF. The result is calculated as
2 for an OK DPF, yielding a leak rate between 1 and 2. For a failed DPF, the
leak rate is calculated as yielding a value between 0 and 1. The
overall DPF leakage assessment is provided only after two or more results of the preceeding calculations has
completed and been averaged. An assessment of DPF leak is provided after the required number of sensor
measurements has been taken. The measurements may span one or more drive cycles.

EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION (EGR) SYSTEM MONITOR
The EGR system is a closed loop control system that controls percent of EGR in the cylinder using the EGR valve
and Throttle. The percent of EGR is calculated using two different methods and the difference between these two
calculations is used to determine if the system is operating corrected. First, the expected amount of EGR in the
cylinder is calculated using a model that is based on the commanded EGR and Throttle position. Second, the
EGR in the cylinder is measured by subtracting the mass air sensor (MAF) reading from a speed-density model of
the air charge into the cylinder. The speed-density model accounts for both fresh air and EGR and is based on the
volumetric efficiency of the engine. High or excessive EGR flow is detected when the measured amount of EGR is
greater than the expected amount of EGR. Low or insufficient EGR flow is detected when the measured amount
of EGR is less than the expected amount of EGR. A slow EGR system is detected using the excessive EGR flow
system monitor.
The monitor compares the two calculations, when a set of entry conditions are met, and determines if the system is
operating correctly. The entry conditions are selected to ensure robust fault/non-fault detection. A summary of the
entry conditions is shown in the tables below. The fault must be detected for a minimum amount of time before
being reported. A timer counts up when the entry conditions are met and the fault is present. The timer counts
down when the entry conditions are met, the fault is not present, and the current count is greater than 0. When this
timer exceeds the time required detect a malfunction, the malfunction is reported.

EGR Cooler / EGR Cooler Bypass Monitor
The functionality of the EGR cooler system, including the bypass valve and temperature sensor, is monitored by
means of comparing measured EGR gas temperature downstream of the EGR cooler assembly with measured
coolant temperature in the main coolant loop when certain engine operating conditions exist. The operating
conditions in which this detection can occur are the monitor entry conditions. Following changes in engine
operating conditions, there is a delay before the changes are reflected in the EGR system temperatures.
Because of this delay the entry conditions include a number of timers which must complete before the monitor is
released. When a condition feeding a timer is no longer met, the timer resets. EGR undercooling is detected
using this EGR cooler monitor.

The undercooling monitor can detect when EGR is not being cooled sufficiently, for example, when the EGR
cooler bypass is stuck in the bypass position. The entry conditions for EGR undercooling monitoring must be met
for monitoring to take place. Once the entry conditions are met and while they continue to be met, the measured
EGR temperature downstream of the EGR cooler assembly is compared to a threshold which is determined
based on measured coolant temperature. A typical value for this threshold is 70 deg C above engine coolant
temperature. If the measured EGR temperature downstream of the EGR cooler assembly is greater than the
threshold, for a predetermined amount of time, a fault is detected.

For overcooling, EGR cooling system is monitored by intrusively moving the bypass door from the cooling position
to the bypass position and looking at the response of the temperature out of the EGR cooler. The gradient (slope)
of the temperature is compared to a threshold, if the gradient is less than the threshold for the entire monitoring
duration, a fault is detected. In contrast, on a non-fault system, once the gradient exceeds the threshold, the
monitor pass is latched. Once the monitor pass is latched, the bypass door returns to the cooling position to
protect the engine hardware from overheating. The bypass door returns to the cooling position before the monitor
is complete but the monitor continues to be released as long as the entry conditions are met. The monitor only
completes once the monitor is released for the full monitoring duration, consecutively.
Monitoring is done during somewhat steady state operation at medium to high speed-load conditions with sufficient
EGR flow. Entry are selected so the monitor is released to run when the conditions are correct. The entry
conditions required to release the monitor are listed EGR Cooler (Intrusive) Entry Conditions table below. The
bypass door must be in the cooling position for a minimum calibrated time for the monitor to be released. The rest
of the entry conditions must be met for a different minimum calibrated time before the monitor is released.
To protect the hardware, the monitor is not allowed to re-release immediately if the release is lost because one of
more of the entry condition are no longer met.

BOOST PRESSURE CONTROL SYSTEM MONITORING
The 6.7L engine is equipped with an oil pressure actuated, variable vane turbocharger. The variable geometry
turbo (VGT) does not have a position sensor, so the position is inferred using a duty cycle to position transfer
function. To verify actual position based on the nominal transfer function, an intrusive monitor sweep is performed.
When entry conditions are met, the intrusive monitor for VGT closes the EGR valve, opens the throttle and then
commands the output PWM to open and closed position for a calibratable duration. Typical values are 85%, then
25%. The minimum and maximum MAP values are saved and compared to a threshold. If the desired separation
in MAP pressure isn’t achieved, a fault is detected. If the desired separation in MAP is achieved, the test is
considered a pass.
In the example above, at 1871 seconds, the EGR valve is commanded closed, after 3 seconds with EGR off and
turbocharger at 85% position, the turbocharger is opened up to. 25% position. The 25% position is held for 4
seconds. If desired separation of 2kpa at sea level is achieved the test is considered a pass. If desired separation
isn’t achieved the test is completed and failed.
Note: this monitor also serves to monitor for a slowly responding boost pressure system due to the time
component of the threshold.

Overboost Monitoring
The 6.7L engine utilizes a closed loop boost pressure controller to maintain desired boost pressure set point under
all temperature ranges and engine operating modes. The overboost monitor compares the desired vs. actual
measured boost pressure while in a specific range of closed loop boost pressure operation. If the boost pressure
governor deviation is greater than the calibrated threshold for 7 seconds, a fault is detected and the P-code is set.
The closed loop monitoring window is defined as any inner torque above 50 nm, and any engine speed above
1000 rpm. Torque window and threshold slightly different for dyno cert due to different turbocharger configuration,
calibration, and air path response.
This diagnostic will detect a turbo slowly responding or stuck in the primarily closed condition.

Threshold Overboost Monitoring
For the pickup applications, use of the engine brake function can result in conditions where a momentary slow
response of the turbocharger vanes to movement can result in a transient high pressure condition that can be
erroneously detected as overboost by the pressure based monitor. Instead, a monitor of exhaust pressure above
a maximum threshold is used as the threshold overboost monitor.
FORD MOTOR COMPANY REVISION DATE: DECEMBER 22, 2014 09.01.00.02-PAGE 76 OF 186
Underboost Monitoring
The underboost monitor works in a similar fashion to the overboost monitor by comparing the desired vs. actual
measured boost pressure while in a specific range of closed loop boost pressure operation. If the boost pressure
governor deviation is greater than the calibrated threshold for 7 seconds, a fault is detected and the P-code is set.
The closed loop monitoring window is defined as any inner torque above 50 nm, and any engine speed above
1500 rpm. The threshold limit is wider for the underbooost monitor due to transient boost system response,
compensation for boost pressure lag, and short term (1-2 second) momentary torque truncation when air path
torque is kept high, but fueling is limited for component protection.
This diagnostic will detect a gross air path leak such as the turbo discharge or CAC discharge tube being blown off,
major pre-turbo exhaust leaks, or a turbo slowly responding or stuck in the open VGT position.

The 6.7L engine is equipped with an air to water charge air intercooler. The CAC is on a secondary coolant loop,
independent from the main engine coolant system. The temperature at the outlet of the cooler is measured as
TCACDs, however the temperature going into the cooler is modeled.
To detect a CAC under cooling situation, the efficiency of the cooler is modeled at various speeds and airflows via
a 3d speed/airflow multiplier table, providing a modeled cooler out temperature. Cooler efficiency * compressor out
temperature = modeled cooler out temp. This modeled cooler out temp is then compared to the measured coolant
out temp, if the difference is less than a threshold curve or greater than a threshold, a fault is detected and a p-

PARTICULATE MATTER (PM) FILTER MONITORING
The DPF is monitored to ensure no leaks have developed in the substrate. The monitor runs after a regeneration
event where sufficient time was spent above a temperature threshold (in order to insure a proper regen).
The DPF Filter Efficiency monitor compares the calculated restriction (from a sensor measuring delta pressure
across the DPF) to the expected restriction calculated from a soot model (using various engine sensors as inputs).
After a successful regeneration event, the monitor waits for DPF temperatures to fall below a threshold (400 degC,
to allow for an accurate soot estimate)and for a small quantity of soot to build up in the DPF (approx 3 grams). At
this point, the monitor performs a filtering routine on the calculated restriction (from deltaP sensor) and locks in the
initial restriction. Once sufficient soot has built up in the DPF (based on integrated soot from the soot model), the
monitor will repeat the filtering routine on the calculated restriction (from deltaP sensor) and from the estimated
soot in the DPF (from soot model). The ratio of restrictions (actual vs soot estimate) is compared to a threshold. If
the ratio is less than a threshold, an error flag is set. The monitor allows for multiple monitoring sessions in order to
provide debouncing before declaring the monitor as a pass or fail. When a sufficient number of sessions have
been completed, the monitor is declared complete. The number of sessions with a failed result is compared to a
threshold. If the number of failed sessions is greater than a threshold, the monitor is declared as failed and the
code is set.

ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM MONITORING
Thermostat Monitor
The Thermostat Monitor checks that the thermostat is operating properly by modeling Engine Coolant
Temperature (ECT) based on engine fueling, engine speed, vehicle speed, and the ambient temperature. There
are increment and decrement portions to the model; the increment is based on engine speed and fuel quantity,
while the decrement is derived from calculated radiator efficiency based on coolant delta temp to ambient and
vehicle speed. The model is delayed by 60 seconds after engine start to negate potential errors due to block heater
use. It is also suspended while in catalyst warm-up mode due to errors in fuel quantity heat being contributed to the
coolant.
Once that estimation reaches the thermostat start-to-open temperature, if the actual measured ECT has not
reached a minimum warm-up temperature and the driver has not spent too much time in part fuel cut off (over
30%), too low load (over 70%), too high vehicle speed (over 70%), or too low vehicle speed (over 70%) - then the
thermostat is determined to be stuck open.

Primary Coolant Temp Rise Monitoring
To ensure the primary ECT sensor has not stuck below normal operating range, a simple rise check to verify a
minimum rise in coolant temperature over a calibratable time has been implemented. If coolant temperature at
start is greater than -35 deg C and less than 54 deg C, the monitor is enabled. At -35 deg C, the coolant is
expected to rise up to -7 deg C in 291 seconds or less. If -7 deg C coolant temp. is not achieved in the required
291 second timeframe, a fault is detected. At a -7 deg C start temp, the coolant is expected to rise to 40 deg C in
5450 seconds- assuming worst case with EGR off, vehicle idling in neutral with heater on. Again, if the minimum
temperature is not achieved in the required time, a fault is detected. This diagnostic is used in conjunction with the
oil vs. coolant plausibility check, thermostat model, and SRC checks to verify proper ECT operation and engine
warm-up.

Secondary Coolant Temp Rise Monitoring
The 6.7L engine has a secondary coolant loop with two thermostats, a 20C thermostat for the charge air cooler
and fuel cooler, and a 45C thermostat for the EGR cooler and trans cooler. System schematic below:
The rise check to detect a stuck ECT2 sensor is identical in function to the rise check used for the primary coolant
loop. A minimum rise is expected over a calibratable amount of time,

COLD START EMISSION REDUCTION STRATEGY MONITORING
Cold Start Emission Reduction System Monitor (Only 6.7L Pickup Applications)
The Post DOC temperature is monitored during a cold start for the CSER System Monitor. The modeled Post
DOC temperature rise is compared to the measured Post DOC temperature rise. Specifically, the monitor
compares the maximum temperature rises. An error is detected if the difference between the modeled and
measured Post DOC maximum temperature rise is above a threshold.
An error will also be detected if the modeled vs. measured post DOC maximum temperature rise is above a
threshold.

Cold Start Emission Reduction Component Monitor
For all 2010 and subsequent model year vehicles that incorporate a specific engine control strategy to reduce cold
start emissions, the OBD ll system must monitor the components to ensure proper functioning. The monitor works
by validating the operation of the components required to achieve the cold start emission reduction strategy,
namely intake throttle and fuel balancing control. The 3.2L diesel does not use a cold start emission reduction
strategy.
Duplicate fault storage of throttle valve jammed detection exists, which can only set/clear in EOM3.

Cold FBC (Only 6.7L Chassis Cert Applications)
Fuel Balancing Control is an algorithm designed to reduce differences in injected fuel quantity from cylinder to
cylinder. The increase in crankshaft speed due to individual cylinder combustion events is measured. The
amount of fuel injected to each cylinder is then adjusted up or down to minimize the difference in increase in
crankshaft speed from cylinder to cylinder. The total amount of fuel injected among all cylinders remains constant.
The Cold FBC runs exactly the same as the normal FBC monitor, only difference is that it will run during EOM3
instead of EOM0. The concept is shown in the graphic below.
FBC operates in closed-loop control in an engine speed range of 500-3000 RPM, and a commanded injection
quantity of 3.5 – 90 mg/stroke. The maximum allowed correction in fuel quantity for an individual cylinder is given
by the following table.

Crankcase Ventilation Monitor
The 6.7L diesel engine has a crankcase ventilation separator mounted on the driver side rocker cover, with a
tube connecting the separator to the fresh air inlet of the turbocharger. The tube on the separator side has a
tamper proof collar installed and is plastic welded to the separator. On the fresh air inlet side, a hall effect sensor
is present, to detect connection to the inlet casting assembly. The tube cannot be disconnected on the separator
side, and if it is disconnected from the inlet casting, a P04DB code is set, as sensor output drops below a
calibrated threshold. There are also circuit range checks, P04E2 and P04E3 to detect shorts to ground, or short
to battery/disconnected sensor, respectively.

An air temperature rationality test is performed once every drive cycle, after a long soak of 6 hours or greater. At
key on, a temperature sample is taken of each of the following sensors: Ambient Air (AAT), Intake Air (IAT),
Charge Air Cooler outlet (CACT1), EGR Cooler outlet (EGT COT), and Secondary Coolant Temperature (ECT2).
Once a cold start has been confirmed, the temperature samples are compared against each other, and the
temperature differences compared against a threshold. One sensor must fail plausibility with all four other sensors
to set a fault for the sensor in question. If one or more sensors fail plausibility with three or fewer sensors, a general
temperature plausibility fault is set. If a block heater has been detected, or if any sensor has been flagged for a
pending signal range malfunction, the plausibility check is not performed.

Engine Coolant & Engine Oil Correlation
The engine coolant temperature sensor reading and engine oil temperature sensor readings are tested for
plausibility once per drive cycle after a long soak (6hrs or more). The values of the coolant and oil temperature
sensor readings are recorded at start up. Once it has been determined that the enable conditions have been
achieved, upper and lower thresholds are determined based on the engine-off time. The difference of the initial oil
and coolant temperatures are compared to this threshold. If the lower threshold is not achieved, a fault is reported.
If the lower threshold is met, but the upper threshold is not achieved and a block heater is not in use, a fault is
reported. If a block heater is detected and the diference is greater than 40C, a fault is reported.

MAF Rationality Check
A rationality check of the mass air flow sensor is performed each time an air mass adaption (AMA) executes. AMA
adapts at two points- one at idle, the other at a specific speed/load. The ratio between the mass air flow and the
reference mass air flow is calculated with the EGR valve commanded to the closed position. The release of this
plausibility check occurs under strict engine operating and environmental conditions to minimize the affect of
outside influences on mass air flow. At each AMA event, the corrected value is stored for each point. These stored
values are compared to a threshold, if the stored values are greater than a threshold a fault is detected, as the air
meter has drifted outside of its nominal operating range. In addition to the stored values, the corrected airflow is
compared to directly to the modeled airflow during AMA. If the ratio of the corrected airflow and the modeled
airflow is less than the threshold, a fault is detected. The following figure outlines the strategy for the rationality
checks.

Air Path Leakage Check
Similar to the mass air flow sensor functional check diagnostics, a rationality check of the mass air flow sensor is
performed each time an air mass adaption (AMA) executes which is used to detect instantaneous problems with
the air path. At idle, the ratio between the mass air flow and the reference mass air flow is calculated with the
EGR valve in the closed position. This ratio is compared against a threshold once AMA has been released. The
release of this plausibility check occurs under strict engine operating and environmental conditions to minimize the
affect of outside influences on mass air flow. The ratio has an upper and lower limit, and the monitor runs once per
drive cycle. A ratio too high indicates a post-turbocharger compressor air path leak, while a ratio too low indicates
an EGR valve that is no longer sealing effectively.

DEF Pressure Sensor
The DEF pressure control system uses the measured DEF pressure in a feedback control loop to achieve the
desired DEF pressure. The DEF injection algorithm uses actual DEF pressure in its computation of DEF injector
pulse width.
The DEF sensor is a gauge sensor. Its atmospheric reference hole is near the electrical connector. The DEF
pressure sensor has a nominal range of 0 to 0.8 MPa (0 to 8 bar, 0 to 116 psi). This pressure range is above the
maximum intended operating pressure of 0.5 MPa. The sensor voltage saturates at slightly above 0.5 and slightly
below 4.5 volts.
DEF pressure is often a vacuum when the system purges after running. Vacuums cannot be measured by the

Reductant Pressure Sensor Signal Range Check
A reductant Pressure Sensor that is substantially in error results in a DEF system fault (over or under injection). If
actual DEF pressure exceeds measured pressure, more DEF than that which would be expected is injected and
vice versa. This error would show up in the long term adaption trim (DEF LTA).
If the hydraulic circuit of the DEF system (pump, pressure line, & injector) is completely empty, i.e. purge cycle was
successfully completed during previous drive cycle, the DEF pressure is expected to read 0 kPa.
Based on sensor tolerances the deviation from zero is limited to 30 kPa.

DEF System Pressure Control
DEF pressure is maintained via feedback knowledge of sensed pressure. Pressure control is closed loop based on
the voltage of the DEF pressure sensor. If a pressure increase is desired, the urea pump motor speed is increased
by increasing the PWM output. Pressure decreases are analogous; as the system has a backflow throttle,
pressure will decrease to 0 unless the pump motor in run continuously. Once the set point pressure (500 kPa) is
reached the following diagnostics are enabled.

Reductant Tank Level Sensor
The task of the discrete level sensor is to measure the tank level at 3 different heights. The determination of a
reductant level is limited to liquid reductant. Frozen reductant cannot be detected. The measured level will be used
to update the calculation of remaining quantity in the reductant tank.
The level sensor consists of four high-grade stainless steel pins. The length of each pin defines the tank level
(height) which is to be checked. Only three pins can be used for level evaluation. The fourth pin is used as ground
pin. Due to the electrical conductivity of Urea the level sensor will determine whether the tank level is above or
below the respective level sensor position. This information will be directly evaluated by the ECU.

If a certain level pin is covered by liquid all pins below this level should be covered as well and send the same

The Reductant Tank Temperature sensor is mounted internal to the Reductant Tank Level Sensor. It is used to
control the activation of the Reductant Tank Heater as well as an enabler to the Level Sensor (which cannot read

Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor Rationality Test
Each EGT Sensor is checked continuously for proper circuit continuity and out of range high values. In addition, a
rationality test is performed once every drive cycle, after a soak of 6 hours or greater. The rationality test consists
of two components, the first being a comparison against modeled values, and the second being a key-on 4-way
temperature sensor comparison. At key-on, a temperature sample is taken of each of the following sensors:
Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT11), Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT12), Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT13),
and Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT14). Once the engine starts and a cold start has been confirmed, the model
comparison tests begin. The model comparison tests ensure that each sensor correlates with an expected
modeled value, and a fault is set if the difference is significant (greater than upper threshold or less than lower
threshold) and persistent. In the second rationality test, the temperature samples from 4 EGTs at key-on are
compared against each other, and the temperature differences are compared against a threshold. One sensor
must fail key-on plausibility with three other sensors to set a fault. If two or more sensors fail plausibility with the
remaining sensors,, then appropriate faults pointing to the faulty EGTs are set. The first (model versus sensor)
rationality tests rely on entry conditions that include engine on time, minimum modeled temperature, minimum
engine coolant temperature, and minimum engine torque. Once the entry conditions have been met, the model
comparisons continue for several minutes to ensure a robust detection. The modeled value for EGT11 is based on
Modeled Turbo Temperatures. The modeled value for EGT12 is based on EGT11. The modeled value for EGT13
is based on EGT12. The modeled value for EGT14 is based on EGT13. In addition, both plausibility tests depend
on minimum engine soak time of 6 hours or more.

Urea Heaters
Aqueous urea water solution (Diesel Exhaust Fluid) freezes at -11°C (12 deg. F). In order to keep the fluid liquid at
low ambient temperatures, the system includes 3 heaters:
• tank heater (PTC heater element – self regulating)
• pump heater (PTC heater element – self regulating)
• pressure line heater (Resistance heater)
The heater power stages are located in the glow plug control module (GPCM). The tank heater is connected to
heater power stage #1. The pressure line & pump heater are connected in parallel to heater power stage #2.
All SCR-heater related circuit checks are performed inside the GCU. The information is sent via CAN to the engine
control module (ECM).
Additionally the GCU sends the supply voltage and the actual heater current for each circuit to the ECM.
Based on this information the heater plausibility checks are performed on the ECM.
Based on the information of heater voltage and heater current, the actual conductance at peak power is calculated
for each heater circuit. This value is checked against the nominal value including tolerances.

Glow Plugs and Glow Plug Control Modujle (GPCM)
The diesel engine uses glow plugs to assist with cold weather starting and combustion until the cylinder is warm
enough to operate normally. The glow plugs are duty cycle controlled and will overheat if constant 12V is applied.
The glow plugs are operated by the Glow Plug Control Module (GPCM). It contains 8 high current smart MOSFET
drivers, one for each glow plug. Glow time and intensity are calculated on the basis of CAN signals (rpm, torque,
engine coolant temp, air temp and BARO.) The module also contains 3 drivers for the DEF (NOx reductant)
heating and thawing system.
The GPCM is connected to the ECU via Diesel high speed CAN. All data and diagnostics pass over this non-
public communication bus. The standard operating voltages for the GPCM are 6.5 volts to 16 volts. Limited
operation between 5.5v and 6.5v on the lower range and no operation below 5.5v. Glow function is disabled below
6.5v and above 16.5v.

DSI Leakage Monitor
DSI leakage monitor addresses the detection of a leaking DSI system in normal lean condition when it is not
supposed to dispense fuel to exhaust pipe. DSI monitoring during normal operation is achieved through exhaust
temperature feedbacks. DSI leakage is detected by comparing measured post-SBS temperature with a
modeled post-SBS temperature value under enable conditions. If the difference between post-SBS temperature
and model temperature exceeds certain threshold, DSI system detects leakage fault.

6R140 (RWD) Transmission with external PCM or TCM
The 6R140 is a 6-speed, step ratio transmission that is controlled by an external PCM (gas engine applications) or
TCM (Diesel engine applications). For Diesel the TCM communicates to the Engine Control Module (ECM), ABS
Module, Instrument Cluster and Transfer Case Control Module using the high speed CAN communication link. The
TCM incorporates a standalone OBD-II system. The TCM independently processes and stores fault codes, freeze
frame, supports industry-standard PIDs as well as J1979 Mode 09 CALID and CVN. The TCM does not directly
illuminate the MIL, but requests the ECM to do so. The TCM is located outside the transmission assembly. It is not
serviceable with the exception of reprogramming.
Transmission Inputs
6R140 uses a Non-contacting Pulse Width Modulated Transmission Range Sensor (TRS) that provides a duty
cycle signal for each position. This signal is transmitted at a frequency of 125 Hz. The PCM / TCM decode the duty
cycle to determine the driver-selected gear position (Park, Rev, Neutral, OD, 3, 2, 1). This input device is checked
for frequency out of range (P0706), duty cycle out of range low (P0707) and duty cycle out of range high (P0708)
Speed Sensors
The Turbine Shaft Speed (TSS) sensor and Output Shaft Speed (OSS) sensor are Hall effect sensors.
The Turbine Shaft Speed sensor is monitored by a rationality test, if engine speed and output shaft speed are high
and a gear is engaged, it can be inferred that the vehicle is moving. If there is insufficient output from the TSS
sensor a fault is stored (P0715).
The Output Shaft Speed sensor is monitored by a rationality test. If engine speed and turbine speed are high and a
gear is engaged, it can be inferred that the vehicle is moving. If there is insufficient output from the OSS sensor a
fault is stored (P0720).
The Transmission Fluid Temperature Sensor is checked for out of range low (P0712), out of range high (P0713),
and in-range failures (P0711). P1783 sets if TFT exceeds 275 deg F for 5 seconds, indicating transmission
overtemperature (non-MIL failure).

Output circuits are checked for opens, short to ground and short to power faults (codes listed in that order) by the
"smart driver" (see ADLER below) that controls the solenoids (SSA P0750, P0973, P0974; SSB P0755, P0976,
P0977; SSC P0760, P0979, P0980; SSD P0765, P0982, P0983; SSE P0770, P0985, P0986).
The shift solenoids are also functional tested for stuck on and stuck off failures. This is determined by vehicle
inputs such as gear command, and achieved gear (based on turbine and output speed). In general the shift
solenoid malfunction codes actually cover the entire clutch system (solenoid, valves, seals and the clutch itself
since using ratio there is no way to isolate the solenoid from the rest of the clutch system)
For SSA thru SSE Diagnostics will isolate the fault into clutch functionally (non-electrical) failed off (SSA P0751,
SSB P0756, SSC P0761, SSD P0766. SSE P0771) and clutch functionally failed on (SSA: P0752, SSB: P0757,
SSC: P0762, SSD: P0767, SSE: P0772).

codes (1 gear – P0731, 2 gear – P0732, 3 gear – P0733, 4 gear – P0734, 5 gear – P0735 or 6 gear –

The Torque Converter Clutch (TCC) solenoid is a Variable Force Solenoid. TCC solenoid circuit is checked
electrically for open, short to ground and short to power circuit faults internally by the "smart driver" that controls the
solenoids (P0740, P0742, P0744).
The TCC solenoid is checked functionally for stuck off faults by evaluating torque converter slip under steady state
conditions when the torque converter is fully applied. If the slip exceeds the malfunction thresholds when the TCC
is commanded on, a TCC malfunction is indicated (P0741).
The TCC solenoid is monitored functionally for stuck on faults (P2758) by monitoring for lack of clutch slip when the
TCC is commanded off, but this code is non-MIL because while a stuck on TCC solenoid may cause driveability
complaints and/or cause engine stalls it does not impact emissions or fuel economy.
The EPC solenoid is a variable force solenoid that controls line pressure in the transmission. The EPC solenoid is
monitored for open, short to ground or short to power faults by the "smart driver" that controls the solenoid. If a
short to ground (low pressure) is detected, a high side switch will be opened. This switch removes power from all 7
VFSs, providing Park, Reverse, Neutral, and 5M (in all forward ranges) with maximum line pressure based on
manual lever position. This solenoid is tested for open (P0960), short to ground (P0962), and short to power
(P0963) malfunctions.
FORD MOTOR COMPANY REVISION DATE: DECEMBER 22, 2014 09.01.00.02-PAGE 177 OF 186
Transmission Solenoid Power Controll (TSPC)
6F140 PCM or TCM has a internal high side switch called TSPC that can be used to remove power from all 7
solenoids simultaneously. If the high side switch is opened, all 7 solenoids will be electrically off, providing Park,
Reverse, Neutral, and 5M (in all forward ranges) with maximum line pressure based on manual lever position.
Due to current limitations TSPC is split into 2 pins / wires at the PCM / TCM. TSPC A provides power to SSA, SSC
and SSE. TSPC B provides power to SSB, SSD, TCC and LPC. Each wire can be tested independently; P0657
sets for an issue with TSPC-A, P2669 sets for an issue with TPSC-B.
Although there are 2 pins and wires between the PCM / TCM and the transmission bulkhead connector the PCM /
TCM contains only one TSPC internally – so the FMEM for either wire being failed is to open TSCP inside the
th
PCM / TCM, which removes power from all 7 solenoids, providing P, R, N and 5 gear with open TCC and max
line as FMEM for any TPSC faults.
The solenoids are controlled by an ADLER chip. The main micro sends commanded solenoid states to the
ADLER, and receives back solenoid circuit fault information.
If communication with the ADLER is lost a P1636 fault code will be stored. If this failure is detected the states of the
solenoids are unknown, so the control system will open the high side switch (removes power from all the
solenoids), providing P, R, N and 5M with open TCC and max line pressure.

transmission to improve pressure accuracy.

CAN Communications Error
The TCM receives information from the ECM via the high speed CAN network. If the CAN link or network fails, the
TCM no longer has torque or engine speed information available. The TCM will store a U0073 fault code and will
illuminate the MIL immediately (missing engine speed) if the CAN Bus is off. The TCM will store a U0100 fault code
and will illuminate the MIL immediately (missing engine speed) if it stops receiving CAN messages from the ECM.
A U0401 fault codes will be stored if the ECM sends invalid/faulted information for the following CAN message
items: engine torque, pedal position.
TCM voltage
If the system voltage at the TCM is outside of the specified 9 to 16 volt range, a fault will be stored (P0882, P0883).
The On-Board Diagnostic (OBD) Executive is a portion of the PCM strategy that manages the diagnostic
trouble codes and operating modes for all diagnostic tests. It is the "traffic cop" of the diagnostic system. The
Diagnostic Executive performs the following functions:
The diagnostic executive also controls several overall, global OBD entry conditions.
• The battery voltage must fall between 9.0 and 16.25 volts to initiate monitoring cycles.
• The engine must be started to initiate the engine started, engine running, and engine off monitoring cycles.
• The Diagnostic Executive suspends OBD monitoring when battery voltage falls below 11.0 volts.
The diagnostic executive controls the setting and clearing of pending and confirmed DTCs.
• A pending DTC and freeze frame data is stored after a fault is confirmed on the first monitoring cycle. If the
fault recurs on the next driving cycle, a confirmed DTC is stored, freeze frame data is updated, and the
MIL is illuminated. If confirmed fault free on the next driving cycle, the pending DTC and freeze frame data
is erased on the next power-up.
• Pending DTCs will be displayed as long as the fault is present. Note that OBD-II regulations required a
complete fault-free monitoring cycle to occur before erasing a pending DTC. In practice, this means that a
pending DTC is erased on the next power-up after a fault-free monitoring cycle.
• After a confirmed DTC is stored and the MIL has been illuminated, three consecutive confirmed fault-free
monitoring cycles must occur before the MIL can be extinguished on the next (fourth) power-up. After 40
engine warm-ups, the DTC and freeze frame data is erased.
The diagnostic executive controls the setting and clearing of permanent DTCs.
• A permanent DTC is stored when a confirmed DTC is stored, the MIL has been illuminated, and there are
not yet six permanent DTCs stored.
• After a permanent DTC is stored, three consecutive confirmed fault-free monitoring cycles must occur
before the permanent DTC can be erased.
• After a permanent DTC is stored, one confirmed fault-free monitoring cycle must occur, following a DTC
reset request, before the permanent DTC can be erased. For 2010MY and beyond ISO 14229 programs
FORD MOTOR COMPANY REVISION DATE: DECEMBER 22, 2014 09.01.00.02-PAGE 179 OF 186
a driving cycle including the following criteria must also occur, following the DTC reset request, before a
permanent DTC can be erased:
o Cumulative time since engine start is greater than or equal to 600 seconds;
o Cumulative vehicle operation at or above 25 miles per hour occurs for greater than or equal
to 300 seconds (medium-duty vehicles with diesel engines certified on an engine
dynamometer may use cumulative operation at or above 15% calculated load in lieu of at or
above 25 miles per hour for purposes of this criteria); and
o Continuous vehicle operation at idle (i.e., accelerator pedal released by driver and vehicle speed
less than or equal to one mile per hour) for greater than or equal to 30 seconds.
• A permanent DTC can not be erased by a KAM clear (battery disconnect). Additionally, its confirmed DTC
counterpart will be restored after completion of the KAM reset (battery reconnect).

Exponentially Weighted Moving Average
Exponentially Weighted Moving Averaging is a well-documented statistical data processing technique that is used
to reduce the variability on an incoming stream of data. Use of EWMA does not affect the mean of the data;
however, it does affect the distribution of the data. Use of EWMA serves to “filter out” data points that exhibit
excessive and unusual variability and could otherwise erroneously light the MIL.
New Average = [New data point * “filter constant”] + [( 1 - “filter constant” ) * Old Average]
This equation produces an exponential response to a step-change in the input data. The "Filter Constant"
determines the time constant of the response. A large filter constant (i.e. 0.90) means that 90% of the new data
point is averaged in with 10% of the old average. This produces a very fast response to a step change.
Conversely, a small filter constant (i.e. 0.10) means that only 10% of the new data point is averaged in with 90%
of the old average. This produces a slower response to a step change.
When EWMA is applied to a monitor, the new data point is the result from the latest monitor evaluation. A new
average is calculated each time the monitor is evaluated and stored in Keep Alive Memory (KAM). This normally
occurs each driving cycle. The MIL is illuminated and a DTC is stored based on the New Average store in KAM.
In order to facilitate repair verification and DDV demonstration, 2 different filter constants are used. A “fast filter
constant” is used after KAM is cleared or DTCs are erased and a “normal filter constant” is used for normal
customer driving. The “fast filter” is used for 5 driving cycles after KAM is cleared/DTCs are erased, and then the
“normal filter” is used. The “fast filter” allows for easy repair verification and monitor demonstration in 2 driving
cycles, while the normal filter is used to allow up to 6 driving cycles, on average, to properly identify a malfunction
and illuminate the MIL. This feature is called Fast Initial Response (FIR). The fast filter is always calibrated to 0.99
which means that the EWMA is effectively disabled because the new average is 99% of the new data point.
Since the EWMA is effectively disabled, it takes two driving cycles to set the MIL. The first driving cycle with a
fault will set a pending DTC; the second driving cycle will set a confirmed code and illuminate the MIL.
The other unique feature used with EWMA is called Step Change Logic (SCL). This logic detects an abrupt
change from a no-fault condition to a fault condition. This is done by comparing the new data point to the EWMA
old average. If the two points differ by more than a calibrated amount (i.e. the new data point is outside the
normal distribution), it means that a catastrophic failure has occurred. The fast filter is then used in the same
manner as for the FIR feature above. Since the EWMA is effectively disabled, it takes two driving cycles to set the
MIL. The first driving cycle with a fault will set a pending DTC; the second driving cycle will set a confirmed code
and illuminate the MIL. The SCL becomes active after the 4th "normal" monitoring cycle to give the EWMA a
chance to stabilize.
During "normal" EWMA operation, a slower filter constant is used. The "normal filer" allows the MIL to be
illuminated in 1 to 6 driving cycles. A confirmed code is set and the MIL is illuminated as soon as the EWMA
crosses the malfunction threshold. There is no pending DTC because EWMA uses a 1-trip MIL.
In order to relate filter constants to driving cycles for MIL illumination, filter constants must be converted to time
constants. The mathematical relationship is described below:

Serial Data Link MIL Illumination
The OBD-II diagnostic communication messages utilize an industry standard 500 kbps CAN communication link.
The instrument cluster on some vehicles uses the same CAN data link to receive and display various types of
information from the PCM. For example, the engine coolant temperature information displayed on the instrument
cluster comes from the same ECT sensor used by the PCM for all its internal calculations.
These same vehicles use the CAN data link to illuminate the MIL rather than a circuit, hard-wired to the PCM.
The PCM periodically sends the instrument cluster a message that tells it to turn on the MIL, turn off the MIL or
blink the MIL. If the instrument cluster fails to receive a message within a 5-second timeout period, the instrument
cluster itself illuminates the MIL. If communication is restored, the instrument cluster turns off the MIL after 5
seconds. Due to its limited capabilities, the instrument cluster does not generate or store Diagnostic Trouble
Codes.

Calculated Load Value
Where:
• Current Calculation of torque is derived from the injected quantity of torque producing fuel and engine speed.
• Maximum Engine Torque is derived from the maximum curve.
I/M Readiness
The readiness function is implemented based on the SAE J1979/ISO 15031-5 format. Clearing codes using a
scan tool results in the various I/M readiness bits being set to a “not-ready” condition. As each non-continuous
monitor completes a full diagnostic check, the I/M readiness bit associated with that monitor is set to a “ready”
condition. This may take one or two driving cycles based on whether malfunctions are detected or not. The
readiness bit for comprehensive component monitoring is immediately considered complete since they are
continuous monitors. The table below shows which monitors must complete for I/M readiness.

Power Take Off Mode
A Power Take-Off (PTO) unit refers to an engine driven output provision for the purposes of powering auxiliary
equipment (e.g., a dump-truck bed, aerial bucket, or tow-truck winch). The OBD-II regulations have historically
accommodated PTO by requiring the software to set all I/M readiness bits to "not complete" when PTO was
engaged and reset them to their previous state when PTO was disengaged.
The 2015 MY OBD-II regulations have changed the requirement for PTO mode. This is in reaction industry
request to accommodate PTO while the vehicle is stationary (stationary PTO) or while the vehicle is moving
(mobile PTO). In mobile PTO, some OBD monitors may not run or may run at reduced frequency. The changes
to the OBD-II regulations accommodate vehicles being I/M tested while PTO is engaged.
For the 2015 MY, the OBD II system is required to track the cumulative engine runtime with PTO active and set
all the OBD II I/M readiness bits to “not complete” if 750 minutes of cumulative engine runtime with PTO active
has occurred and all OBD monitors have not yet completed. The PTO timer pauses whenever PTO changes
from active to not active and resumes counting when PTO is re-activated. The PTO timer is reset to zero after all
the affected monitors have completed. If an OBD monitor is completely disabled by PTO mode, the affected
IUMPR numerator and denominator must also be disabled.
This new requirement provides a 750 minute allowance to run all OBD monitors before all the I/M readiness bits
are set to “not complete” in order to better accommodate vehicles that have monitors that run with reduced
frequency in PTO mode or have monitors that don’t run at all.

In-Use Monitor Performance Ratio
Manufacturers are required to implement software algorithms that track in-use performance for each of the
following components: NMHC catalyst, NOx catalyst monitor, NOx adsober monitor, PM filter monitor, exhaust
gas sensor monitor, EGR/ VVT monitor, boost pressure monitor, and fuel system monitor. The numerator for
each component or system tracks the number of times that all conditions necessary for a specific monitor to
detect a malfunction have been encountered. The denominator for each component or system tracks the number
of times that the vehicle has been operated in the specified conditions.
Ignition cycle counter will increment after engine start >= 1 second
“Engine start” is defined as the point when the engine reaches a speed 150 rpm below the normal, warmed-up
idle speed (as determined in the drive position for vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission).
General Denominator counter will increment if all the following conditions are met:
