1. Vehicle Computer Control Systems can perform millions of calculations each second This makes them an ideal substitute for the slower mechanical engine controls By switching from mechanical to electronic engine controls vehicle manufacturers are able to control fuel delivery and spark timing more precisely Some newer Computer Control Systems also provide control over other vehicle functions such as transmission brakes charging body and suspension systems 3150d 11 Onboard Diagnostics COMPUTER ENGINE CONTROLS The Basic Engine Computer Control System The Computer Control System consists of an on board computer and several related control devices sensors switches and actuators The on board computer is the heart of the Computer Control System The computer contains several programs with preset reference values for air fuel ratio spark or ignition timing injector pulse width engine speed etc Separate values are provided for various driving conditions such as idle low speed driving high speed driving low load or high load The preset reference values represent the ideal air fuel mixture spark timing transmission gear selection etc for any driving condition These values are programmed by the vehicle manufacturer and are specific to each vehicle model Most on board computers are located inside the vehicle behind the dashboard under the passenger s or driver s seat or behind the right kick panel
