Component Description
Engine Control Module (ECM)
Engine Control Module (ECM) is located on the left side of the engine. The ECM is a powerful computer that provides total electronic control of engine performance. The ECM uses data from engine performance that is gathered by several sensors. Then, the ECM uses this data in order to adjust the fuel delivery, injection pressure, and injection timing. The ECM contains programmed performance maps (software) in order to define horsepower, torque curves, and rpm. This software is commonly called the personality module.ECM logs faults of engine performance. Also, the ECM can run several diagnostic tests automatically when the ECM is used with an electronic service tool such as the Cat ET.Priming Pump

(18) Air purge valveThe electric priming pump (3) forces the air that is in the fuel system out of the system through manually operated valve on the fuel filter base. Priming via the manually operated air purge valve (18) on the fuel filter base is usually required only after servicing the fuel system or a fuel system filter change.. When the fuel system has air trapped in the fuel filters, lines, and other fuel system components, the engine could experience difficulty starting. The ECM electronically controls the fuel priming pump relay. The fuel priming pump runs for 150 seconds after the keyswitch is turned to the ON or remote start position unless the engine reaches low idle rpm. Once one of these conditions are met, the engine speed has to come back to zero to start the priming cycle again.Fuel Transfer Pump

(8) High-pressure fuel pump (14) Fuel transfer pump (19) Low-pressure fuel inlet (20) Low-pressure fuel outletFuel transfer pump (14) is a pump that produces low pressure, high volume to pull fuel from the tank and through the primary fuel filter. Then, the pump sends the fuel through the secondary filter on the way to the high-pressure fuel pump. The high-pressure fuel pump feeds the injectors.Fuel transfer pump (14) is mounted on the back of high-pressure fuel pump (8). The fuel transfer pump is driven by the shaft of the high-pressure fuel pump.High-pressure fuel pump

The high-pressure fuel pump is located at the left front corner of the engine.Rail Pressure Sensor

Rail pressure sensorThe rail pressure sensor is installed in the front of the high-pressure fuel rail. The rail pressure sensor monitors the fuel pressure that is inside of the fuel rail. The rail pressure sensor sends an analog voltage signal back to ECM. The ECM interprets the signal. The ECM is
