Circuit/System Testing
- Test for shorted terminals and poor connections at the EGR valve.
- With the ignition ON and the EGR valve disconnected, observe that the EGR Position parameter on the scan tool is 0 volts.
- If the EGR Position parameter is more than 0 volts, test the signal circuit for a short to voltage or for a faulty ECM.
- With the ignition ON and the EGR valve disconnected, measure for 5 volts between the 5-volt reference circuit of the EGR valve and the low reference circuit of the EGR valve.
- If the voltage is less than 5 volts, test the for an open in the low reference circuit of the EGR valve or for a faulty ECM.
- If the signal and the low reference circuit, test normal replace the EGR valve.
