2010 Ford Transit Connect Van CargoSECTION Engine Ignition
The Electronic Ignition (EI) system is a coil-on-plug ignition system. The coil-on-plug ignition system consists of the:
- Camshaft Position (CMP) sensor.
- Crankshaft Position (CKP) sensor.
- ignition-coil-on plug.
- spark plugs.
The CMP sensor:
- is a Hall-effect sensor.
- is mounted in the valve cover.
- provides camshaft rotational location information to the PCM.
The CKP sensor:
- is a variable reluctance sensor.
- is mounted on the engine front cover.
- is triggered by a 36-minus-1 tooth trigger wheel located on the crankshaft pulley and damper.
- provides ignition timing and crankshaft speed (RPM) to the PCM.
The ignition-coil-on-plugs:
- change low-voltage signals from the PCM to high-voltage pulses.
- produce the high-voltage pulses to the spark plugs.
- are connected directly to each spark plug.
- have replaceable coil boots.
The spark plugs:
- change high-voltage pulses into a spark which ignites the fuel and air mixture.
