                         With the current technological level, this Hardware has become very reliable
                         considering the strict work regimes.
                         The electronic circuits have been designed with maximum security against
                         interference-resistant to high temperatures and long periods of work.
                         Despite all safety procedures, failure to production of sparks or fuel injection or even
                         secondary functions. Our job will be to analyze the source of the failure at the
                         Hardware level and fix it.
                         The operation of the Electronic Control Unit ECU, is shown

                                      prices and specifications. Since the instrument will be used in the harsh
                                      workshop environment, the purchase of a shockproof one will be a good
                                      investment, which will justify the extra expense.

OSCILLOSCOPE
             The oscilloscope helps us to find the problem quickly and easily. Often the problem
             has not registered an error code (DTC) in the corresponding ECU, the DTC, which
             can be read with a code reader. Generally, a DTC is recorded when there is a broken
             cable or a cable is short-circuited to a positive or negative source. But when a
             detector or mechanism has stopped working at some intermediate position, there is
             no error recorded. In this case, like when you need to find the reason that caused an
             error to be recorded - the automotive oscilloscope is your most important instrument
             required.
             With the increase in sensors, actuators and wiring diagrams in modern automobiles,
             the oscilloscope is an instrument that diagnoses irregularities faster and easier.
             Let's see the waveforms found in the different points of the ECU Let's study the
             meaning of each one.
             For configuration and setup (setup) of the Oscilloscope we recommend
             consult the AutoLeap Oscilloscope Handout .

             The ECU Electronic Control Unit, in order to function and thus allow the tests and
             diagnostics, needs several signals at the input, provided by the sensors, as well as
             12v power at other several points (line 15 and line 30).
             To create this situation that allows the ECU to work on the workbench, there is the
             equipment that simulates all the existing signals in the Automobile.

             Some circuits that have a typical square-type wave may experience a voltage drop at
             the end of the switching period. This is typical of some systems and can usually be
             ignored, as it is not an indicator in itself malfunction.
             Frequency
             The total width of the pattern (the frequency) depends on the operating speed of the
             circuit.
                                  •   The typical waveforms illustrated are obtained with the oscilloscope's
                                      timescale adjusted to allow detailed observation. In direct current (DC)
                                      circuits, the time scale will depend on the speed at which the circuit is
                                      switched;
                                  •   In the case of alternating current (AC) circuits, the time scale depends on
                                      the speed of the signal generator; for example, the frequency of an
                                      inductive speed sensor increases with the motor speed.
                                  •   If the oscilloscope pattern is too compressed, decrease the time scale
                                      to obtain the desired view. If the pattern is too expanded, increase the
                                      time scale.
                                  •   An inverted pattern indicates that the system to be tested has its
                                      component connected with the polarity opposite to the typical waveform
                                      shown and can normally be ignored, as it is not a malfunction indicator
                                      by itself.

TESTING OF COMPONENTS
             As we have already seen, the first analysis is the detailed visual inspection of the
             conditions of the printed circuit board, connectors, component positioning, components
             with overheating characteristics, etc. In case of removing any component, do not forget
             to write down or photograph the original position of the component. In the sequence
             we will see the components to be tested:

             The vast majority of defects found in Control Centers (ECU), is the “cold solder” or
             interrupted conductive track.
             Cause - Several factors can cause bad contact in terminal welds or breakage of
             tracks: 1-Time action 2-Oxidation 3-External short circuit 4-Over load, due to lack
             of grounding of external components.
             It is made - Lack of grounding of some sensors, actuators not operating, Central does
             not work.
             Solution - First check the cause. Redo the weld or rebuild the track with capped wire.
             The components shown in the photo above, have their physical appearances
             (encapsulation), very different in the different models of ECUs, according to the
             manufacturer but the internal characteristics of operation are the same. We can check
             each type of component and its characteristics, with the help of the Datasheet of the
             manufacturer of the component under test.
                                  1- Drivers
             Components such as Transistors and FETs, used to amplify and transform processed
             digital signals into power signals for triggering the injector nozzle, coil, solenoids, etc.
             Check the internal characteristics in the Datasheet. The Coil Driver is generally shorted
             when the Coil is damaged. The Driver consists of an individual Power Transistor in
             Integrated Circuit with several internal components, Mult-Driver.
                                  2 - Transistors
             Low power transistors used for switching and communication of processed digital
             signals.
                                  3 - Electrolytic capacitor
             Used to filter the input voltage before the voltage regulator and after the voltage
             regulator. It consists of two dielectrics and an acidic substance internally, which can
             leak over time, causing corrosion and short circuits in the board.
                            4 - Zener diode or rectifier
             The rectifier diode allows the passage of the electric current only in a sense. The zener
             diode protects the system against over voltage.
                                                               31

                                           5 - Processor
             As with a Desk Top Computer, it is the heart of the ECU. Contains a internal software
             with the system's work routine. To check its operation, consult the Datasheet to find the
             power terminals + 5v, Earth, and with the help of the oscilloscope, check the Clock
             signal.
                                                                  EEprom
             Serial Eprom package SOIC08 contains information like code immobilizer, engine,
             Airbag etc. It can be reprogrammed via Scanner.
                                                                  Eprom
             It can be found in DIP, PLCC, PSOP or internally in the processor in Hybrid ECUs.
             Contains information about the engine's operating parameters: advance, injection time,
             temperature etc. Programming can only be done by changing the Chip or using special
             equipment.
                                                           Voltage Regulator
             Adjusts the 5v working voltage of the ECU.
                                                                 Connector
             Connects the ECU to supply voltage, earth, sensors and actuators. It presents defects
             of bad contact, oxidation.

             Variables: They are those whose electrical resistance can be changed through an axis
             or course (Rheostat, Potentiometer).
             Resistors are identified by a color code, where each color and its position in the
             resistor body represents a value or a factor multiplicative.
SMD RESISTOR
             SMD resistors are 1/3 the size of conventional resistors. They are soldered on the
             underside of the board by the side of the tracks, taking up much less space. They have
             the value marked on the body with 3 numbers, the 3rd digit being the number of
             zeros. Ex: 102 means 1,000 Ω = 1K Ω.TESTING OF ELECTRYLIC CAPACITORS
                                                                      33

             Real look
             These capacitors are used specifically in filtering power supplies, low frequency
             oscillating circuits, low signal coupling frequency and time circuit (timer).
             There are two types of electrolytics: Those that have a metallic body
             (similar to the common ones) and those with an epoxy body, similar to the diodes.
             Some have the characteristics indicated by a letter (working voltage) and a number
             (value in mF). Ex: 22/16 See below:
             To do the tests of the electrolytic capacitors, it is first necessary to know their value in
             Microfarade in order to be able to position the selector switch in the correct scale
             Also note that the electrolytic capacitor has polarity (+ and -) the working voltage value
             is also found in the capacitor.
             In your tests it is not necessary to see its polarity or the working voltage, only the
             capacitance value to position the selector switch on the correct scale.
                                  • Take a capacitor whose value is between 330mF to 10,000mF.
                                                                   34

                                    Start with the smallest scale (X1) and measure in both directions. Increase
                                    the scale until you find one that the pointer deflects and returns. The larger
                                    the capacitor, the smaller the required scale. This test is only for the charge
                                    and discharge of the capacitor. See below:
             If the pointer does not deflect or deflect just a little, the capacitor is open or exhausted.
             If the pointer deflects and does not return, the capacitor is in short.
             See below:
                                                                       35

             DIODES TEST
             We find it in several common and SMD packages.
             There are several types of Diode such as Rectifier, Zener, LED, Varicap etc. let's look
             at just two types most used in ECUs.
             Rectifier Diode
             It has the characteristic of allowing the passage of electric current in a single sense.
             Zener Diode
             It has the characteristic of allowing the current to flow inversely, when it exceeds the
             zener value.
             Use the largest scale (X10K or X1K) and measure the diode in both directions. The
             pointer should only deflect in one direction. As the black tip is connected to the
             positive of the batteries, the pointer will touch the black on the anode. If the pointer
             deflects in both directions, the diode is in I enjoy . If the pointer does not deflect in
             any direction, the diode is open . See below:
                                                            36
hal.meb@outlook.com 31 Jan 2023
             The test for Zener Diode is the same for rectifier diode, if we improve the test we can use
             an adjustable voltage source and adjust for rupture voltage, the diode and check the
             reverse current, finding the zener voltage.
TRANSISTORS TEST
             The Transistor has the function of amplifying electric currents and switching loads
             electrical. In the ECU, among other functions, it is mainly used as an output and switching
             nozzle driver, coil etc.
                                                          37

             A transistor for testing purposes is no more than two diodes connected in opposition,
             the verification with the multimeter is performed according to the two PN junctions and
             NP.
             The measurement is carried out in the same way as on a normal PN diode.
                                                         38
hal.meb@outlook.com 31 Jan 2023
FET TRANSISTOR
                           A common defect in power transistors is a short one between collector and emitter,
                           or Dource and Drain that can be detected by these tests. Remember that certain
                           types, such as the Coil output, may have an internal diode between emitter and
                           collector and also internal resistance between base and emitter. But the short
                           mentioned is observed by the low resistance in both directions.
PROCESSOR TEST
                           Processors are also different depending on the manufacturer and the ECU model.
                           Major processor manufacturers are: Motorola, STMicroelectronics, NEC
                           Electróncs, Texas Instruments, SGS Tomson.
                                                                   39

                       With the self-adaptive feature, the Processor performs the reading of the
                       sensors and rewrites the parameters at a speed 4 times greater than the engine
                       speed. When the sensor readings report values that are too high or too low at
                       random, far outside the characteristic parameters, the processor registers an error
                       and crashes its operation. For this ECU to return to normal operation, we have to
                       reset this processor, loading new software into its memory.
                       This procedure happens with all types of Electronic Command, such as Electronic
                       Panel, ABS Brake Central, Immobilizer etc.
                       Very common procedure in vehicle repair shops, is the exchange of the Vehicle
                       Dashboard or Injection Module, for a component removed from another vehicle
                       whose characteristics are different. For everything to work correctly, just copy the
                       software from the Panel or Module Processor and write to the Processor of the new
                       Module.
                       In the most recent Centrals, it is possible to do this work by interface OBD2 via
                       diagnostic connector or even through the Scanner. In other plants it is only
                       possible to reprogram the Processor with the help of special programmers.

Adapters
             This adapter socket is used to allow reading and writing PLCC type eproms on
             equipment whose socket is DIP. Observe carefully which socket the particular Eprom
             PLCC should be fitted in (27C010 or 27C512).
             This socket is used to test a file that originally belongs to a PLCC 27C512. In case the eprom is a
             27C010, we have the possibility to do the tests on a PLCC Flash 28F010 eprom. However, we do
             not have this same device in the case of PLCC 27C512. In this case, we write the file to a 27C512
             DIP and use the test adapter.

TYPES OF FIXATION
             The eproms are fixed to the Central Electronic board in three different ways: socket, solder
             and mencal.
             SOCKET: The eprom is fixed to the central board through a socket, varying only the type
             of socket, according to the type of eprom used, DIP or PLCC.
WELDING: The eprom is welded directly to the central plate, that is, it is fixed.
                                                           45
hal.meb@outlook.com 31 Jan 2023
             MENCAL: The eprom is fixed to the central board using a special socket, developed
             by the central manufacturer. These mencals are found in some Delco plants. There are
             two types of mencals: MENCAL BLUE, which are small (to assist in the exchange of
             this eprom, we developed the Delco Spacer), and the large mencals.
             These plants are found in the Gol 1.0 8V until 1999 (from 2000 onwards it is already a
             PLCC) and in the 1.6 8V Kombi. In both cases, the replacement eprom will be DIP
             27C512. This socket will be fixed between the central and the new eprom and will be
             fixed in the central.

PROGRAMMING ENVIRONMENT
             EPROM: It's a memory. It works like a computer diskette. It has a file stored inside it
             where the car's electronic and electronic information is located, as well as the
             information from the sensors, its routines and maps.
             FILE: It is a set of data transformed into binary or hexadecimal numbers represented
             by letters and numbers.
             BUFFER: It's the computer's memory. It is there that the file extracted from Eprom or the file
             remapped by the program is stored.
             PROGRAM: It is the tool used to change (remap) a file which has been transformed into a graphic
             so that it can be viewed.
EPROM REPROGRAMMING
             There is a lot of software to Edit and Reprogram the internal File of the
             Eprom memory. In the next step of our Courses, we will learn how to use the most
             advanced Reprogramming tool to date. Let's learn how to reprogram with Software
             ECM2001 from AlienTech.
             ECM 2001 is a new concept of remapping software for electronic injection. Enables
             modifications to the file contained in the EPROM memory with more precision and
             practicality, whether on engines Diesel or Gasoline , aspirated or turbo-compressors,
             quickly loading the maps available in the driver (injection, point, pressure, turbo ...).
             *     It allows the visualization of maps of 8 bits, 8 bits / 128, 8 bits / 255, 16 bits IEEE,
             16 bits IEEE / 32768,
             16 bits Motorola and 16 bits Motorola / 32768;
                                                                 47

BI-FUELS
             THE EPROMIX is a program for adding files. It generates a third file from the sum of two
             others. How does it work:
             First: You must choose (select) the first file by clicking on the button that contains the
             drawing of a yellow folder referring to file one. When working as an original file and a
             remapped file, it is advisable that file number one (first file) be the original. In the case
             of two remaps, the order of the files is the same.
             Second: You must repeat the same procedure as before, but now to choose file
             number 2.
             Third: In the field called “Sum”, you will click on the button with a yellow folder drawn
             and choose where (in which directory) your new file (the third, coming from the sum of
             the first two) will be saved.
             Bedroom: On the right side of the program window (or in the “Eprom” menu) you
             have the option to select which type of eprom will be used by the added file. That is,
             when the original eprom of the vehicle you are converting is a DIP 27C256, a DIP
             27C512 or a PLCC 27C512, in this field, you will always select the eprom "271001" .
             When the vehicle's original eprom is a PLCC 27C010, in this field you will select the
             eprom "27020" .
             Fifth: After the previous four procedures, you must generate the added file by clicking
             on the program button called “Generate”.
                                                             49
hal.meb@outlook.com 31 Jan 2023
             Note that the size of the generated file corresponds to the type of eprom you selected
             and that Cheksum is the sum of the Cheksum of the two first files.
             Socket BI-MM28
             This socket is used in vehicles that have DIP 27C256 or DIP 27C512 as the original
             eprom. In the EPROMIX program, it must be selected in the kind of eprom a 271001 .
             In the socket there is a “jumper” that serves to select the type of original eprom of the
             vehicle. There is also a connector where you will connect a positive 12 volt supply
             together with a common, on-off switch. This switch will switch between files, that is,
             while the switch is off and the bi-fuel socket is not being powered
             positively (12 volts), the socket will trigger file number one. The moment the key is
             activated (on) and starts driving 12 volts to the socket, it will trigger file number two,
             without having to turn the vehicle off.
             Its operating principle (12 volt supply and on-off switch) is the same as that of the
             BI-MM28, however this socket is only for the PLCC 27C512 eprom, so it does not
             have any jumper to select the type of eprom. In the EPROMIX program, it will also be
             selected as the type of eprom to be 271001 .

hal.meb@outlook.com 31 Jan 2023
             Its working principle (12 volt power and on / off switch) is also the same as the
             previous sockets, but this socket is only for the eprom PLCC 27C010 and also does
             not have any “jumper” to select the type of eprom. However, in the EPROMIX
             program, the type of eprom will be selected as 27020 .
             Example of a BI-PLCC socketBi-fuel socket for Delco control units Its operating
             principle (12 volt power and on / off switch) is also the same as the previous sockets,
             however this socket does not use the EPROMIX program. Its two files are recorded
             in different eproms, that is, the first file in one eprom and the second file in another
             eprom, both using the eproms corresponding to the vehicle's original.
                                                                             51

SCANNER READINGS
                             With the Scanner we can analyze the signal processing of the sensors
                             carried out by the ECU.
                             1 - Connect the Scanner directly to the ECU through the pin of the K
                             communication line or through the Simulator.
3 - Vary the Simulator sensors and check the readings on the Scanner
                             With this procedure we check which function the ECU is not processing
                             correctly.                        55

             Most SMD components are made of silicon (transistors, diodes, ICs) and soldered
             on the side of the tracks, taking up much less space on a printed circuit board.
             Thanks to these components it was possible to invent the cell phone, notebooks,
             handheld computers, etc. Below is an example of some types of
             SMD components:

                       The resistors are 1/3 the size of conventional resistors. They are soldered on the
                       underside of the board by the side of the tracks, taking up much less space. They
                       have the value marked on the body with 3 numbers, the 3rd digit being the
                       number of zeros. Ex: 102 means 1,000 Ω = 1 K. The jumpers (wires) come with
                       the indication 000 on the body and the capacitors do not come with the indicated
                       values. We can only know through a capacimeter. See below:
                       The coils have an epoxy encapsulation similar to that of transistors and diodes.
                       There are two types of electrolytics: Those with a metallic body (similar to the
                       common ones) and those with an epoxy body, similar to diodes. Some have the
                       characteristics indicated by a letter (working voltage) and a number (pF value).
                       Ex: A225 = 2,200,000 pF = 2.2 µ F x 10 V (letter "A"). See below:
                                                                 57

SMD Semiconductors
                       Semiconductors comprise the transistors, diodes and ICs placed and soldered
                       alongside the tracks.
                       The transistors can come with 3 or 4 terminals, however the position of these
                       terminals varies according to the code. Such code is marked on the body by a
                       letter, number or sequence of them, but it does not correspond to the indication of
                       the same. For example. the BC808 transistor comes with a 5BS indication on the
                       body.
                       In the diodes the color of the cathode indicates its code, and some of them have
                       the encapsulation of 3 terminals equal to a transistor.
                       ICs have 2 or 4 rows of terminals. When there are 2 rows, the count starts with
                       the pin marked by a dot or to the right of a "half moon". When they have 4 rows,
                       the 1st pin is below the left of the code. The remaining pins are counted
                       counterclockwise. Below are some examples of SMD semiconductors:
                                                                 58

                       This is an excellent tool for removing and soldering SMD components from
                       printed circuit boards.
SMD desoldering
                       Turn on the blower and place an average amount of air and the temperature
                       between 300º and 380º appropriate to the CI and the printed circuit where the
                       operation is carried out.
                       Phenolite sheets are more sensitive to heat than fiberglass sheets. Therefore, for
                       phenolite, care must be taken (lower temperatures and desoldering as quickly as
                       possible) to avoid damaging the plate.
                       Then blow the air around the CI until it is completely released from the plate.
                       Then just clean with a brush and isopropyl alcohol.
                                                                  59

SMD CI welding
                                                                   60

                       Place the CI on the board taking care to position it so that each pin is exactly on
                       its corresponding track. If necessary, use a increase.
                       Then keep a finger on the CI and apply solder to the first two pins on two opposite
                       sides so that it does not move out of position during welding. Watch bellow:
                       Put some solder flux on the IC pins. Melt common solder in one corner of the CI
                       until it forms a solder ball. The welding should be done in a row of the CI at a
                       time. Look:
                                                                  61

                       Stand the plate upright and carefully run the tip of the iron through the pins from
                       top to bottom, dragging the solder down. Add more flow if necessary.When the
                       solder reaches the bottom, place the plate horizontally again, apply a little more
                       flow and pull the solder out of the pins. If it is too difficult, remove the excess
                       solder with a solder suction. Repeat this operation on each row of pins on the CI.
                       See below:
                       After welding, preferably check with a magnifying glass that two or more pins are
                       not shorted. If this has occurred, apply more flux and remove excess solder.
                       Finally, clean the plate around the IC with isopropyl alcohol. See below how the
                       CI was after the process:
