OPERATION
  • Power is supplied to the EGR control solenoid valve (terminal No. 1) from the engine control relay (terminal No. 1).
  • The engine-A/T-ECU (terminal No. 6) makes the power transistor in the unit be in "ON", and that makes currents go on the EGR control solenoid valve (terminal No. 2).
FUNCTION
  • In response to the signal from the engine-A/T-ECU, the EGR control solenoid valve controls the operation of the EGR valve.
PROBABLE CAUSE
  • Failed EGR control solenoid valve
  • Open/short circuit in EGR control solenoid valve or loose connector contact
  • Failed engine-A/T-ECU
DIAGNOSIS PROCEDURE
       
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 3 .
NO:  Repair.
       
  • Disconnect connector, and measure at solenoid valve side.
  • Resistance between terminal No. 1 and No. 2.
OK: 29 - 35 Ω (at 20°C)
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 4 .
NO:  Replace EGR control solenoid valve.
       
  • Disconnect connector, and measure at harness side.
  • Ignition switch: ON
  • Voltage between terminal No. 1 and earth.
OK: System voltage
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 6 .
NO:  Go to Step 5 .
           
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES: 
  • Check and repair harness between B-102 (terminal No. 1) EGR control solenoid valve connector and B-17X (terminal No. 1) engine control relay connector.
    • Check power supply line for open/short circuit.
NO:  Repair.
       
  • Disconnect connector, and measure at harness side.
  • Ignition switch: ON
  • Voltage between terminal No. 6 and earth.
OK: System voltage
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 8 .
NO:  Go to Step 7 .
               
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES: 
  • Check and repair harness between B-102 (terminal No. 2) EGR control solenoid valve connector and C-112 (terminal No. 6) engine-A/T-ECU connector.
    • Check output line for open/short circuit.
NO:  Repair.
       
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 9 .
NO:  Repair.
               
  • Check output line for damage.
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 10 .
NO:  Repair.
           
  • Check power supply line for damage.
Q: Is the check result normal?
YES:  Go to Step 11 .
NO:  Repair.
