EGR Control System Inspection

  1. Crank the engine and verify that EGR valve operation (initial operation) sound is heard.
    • If the operation sound is not heard, connect the M-MDS to the DLC-2 and verify that the DTC P0403:00 is shown. Perform DTC inspection. (See DTC P0403:00 .)
  2. Start the engine and idle it.
  3. Warm up the engine to normal operating temperature.
  4. Access the following PIDs: (See ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTIC TEST .)
    • APP1
    • APP2
    • ECT
    • RPM
    • SEGRP_DSD
    • VSS
  5. Idle the vehicle and verify that the SEGRP value is 0.
  6. Put the vehicle in drive.
  7. Depress the accelerator pedal and verify that the SEGRP_DSD value is increased.
    • If the EGR valve increases, inspect the following:
      • EGR valve (stuck open or close) (See EGR VALVE INSPECTION .)
      • Wiring harness and connectors (Main relay-EGR valve-PCM)
    • If the SEGRP_DSD value does not increase, inspect the VSS, APP1, APP2, TP_REL and ECT PIDs. (See PCM INSPECTION .)
  8. Stop the vehicle and verify that the SEGRP value returns to 0.
