  2. Crankshaft position sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crankshaft_position_sensor

    A bad crank position sensor can worsen the way the engine idles, or the acceleration behaviour. If the engine is revved up with a bad or faulty sensor, it may cause misfiring, motor vibration or backfires. Acceleration might be hesitant, and abnormal shaking during engine idle might occur. In the worst case, the car may not start.

  3. Engine control unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_control_unit

    Delco ECU used in General Motors vehicles built in 1996. An engine control unit (ECU), also called an engine control module (ECM), [1] is a device that controls various subsystems of an internal combustion engine. Systems commonly controlled by an ECU include the fuel injection and ignition systems.

    These tin finishes can produce conductive tin whiskers capable of creating unintended electrical failures such as short circuits. The use of tin finish in Toyota's APPS is therefore a cause for concern. [15] Similarly in 2013, materials used in an automotive engine control unit (ECU) from a 2008 Toyota Tundra truck were analyzed.

  5. Electronic control unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_control_unit

    An ECU from a Geo Storm. An electronic control unit (ECU), also known as an electronic control module (ECM), is an embedded system in automotive electronics that controls one or more of the electrical systems or subsystems in a car or other motor vehicle.

  6. MAP sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAP_sensor

    The manifold absolute pressure sensor (MAP sensor) is one of the sensors used in an internal combustion engine's electronic control system. Engines that use a MAP sensor are typically fuel injected. The manifold absolute pressure sensor provides instantaneous manifold pressure information to the engine's electronic control unit (ECU).

  7. Trionic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trionic

    Trionic is an engine management system developed by Saab Automobile. It consists of an engine control unit (ECU) that controls 3 engine aspects: Ignition timing; Fuel injection; Acts as a boost controller. The numerical prefix 'tri-' yes (Tri being three) in Trionic. 'Ion' comes from the fact that it uses ion current, measured by the spark ...

  8. Engine tuning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engine_tuning

    Engine tuning is the adjustment or modification of the internal combustion engine or Engine Control Unit (ECU) to yield optimal performance and increase the engine's power output, economy, or durability. These goals may be mutually exclusive; an engine may be de-tuned with respect to output power in exchange for better economy or longer engine ...

  9. Lucas 14CUX - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucas_14CUX

    A Rover V8 3.9L engine fitted with the 14CUX system. The engine control unit (ECU) of the 14CUX system is run by a Motorola MC6803U4 8-bit microprocessor, which is an uncommon variant of the otherwise ubiquitous 6803. The processor is mislabelled in the ECU, possibly to deter any reverse engineering efforts. The 14CUX determines fueling values ...
