DTC P0490:00 [MZ-CD 1.6]


id0102g8049000

DTC P0490:00

EGR valve control circuit high

DETECTION CONDITION
•  The PCM monitors the EGR valve position and compares the actual value with that calculated by the PCM. If the actual value for the EGR valve position exceeds 27 % compared to the calculated value, the PCM determines that the EGR valve control circuit is high.
POSSIBLE CAUSE
•  EGR valve malfunction
•  Obstruction in EGR valve
•  EGR valve position sensor malfunction
•  Connector or terminal malfunction
•  PCM malfunction

Diagnostic procedure

STEP

INSPECTION

ACTION

1
VERIFY FREEZE FRAME DATA HAS BEEN RECORDED
•  Has the FREEZE FRAME DATA been recorded?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Record the FREEZE FRAME DATA on the repair order, then go to the next step.
2
VERIFY RELATED REPAIR INFORMATION AVAILABILITY
•  Verify related service repair information availability.
•  Is any related repair information available?
Yes
Perform repair or diagnosis according to the available repair information.
If the vehicle is not repaired, go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
3
VERIFY RELATED PENDING CODE AND/OR DTC
•  Switch the ignition to ON (engine off).
•  Perform the pending trouble code access procedure
•  Is the PENDING CODE/DTC also present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
No
Go to the next step.
4
INSPECT EGR VALVE AND EGR VALVE POSITION SENSOR CONNECTORS FOR POOR CONNECTION
•  Switch the ignition to off.
•  Disconnect the EGR valve and EGR valve position sensor connectors.
•  Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, and corrosion).
•  Is there any malfunction?
Yes
Repair or replace terminal, then go to Step 9.
No
Go to the next step.
5
VISUALLY INSPECT EGR VALVE
•  Disconnect the EGR valve connector.
•  Remove the EGR valve without the EGR cooler hose disconnected.
•  Visually inspect the EGR valve.
•  Is there any obstruction (carbon deposit etc.) in the EGR valve?
Yes
Remove the obstruction, then go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
6
INSPECT WHETHER MALFUNCTION IS IN EGR VALVE OR EGR VALVE POSITION SENSOR
•  Reconnect the EGR valve and EGR valve position sensor connectors.
•  Access PCM PID EGRP using the M-MDS.
•  Open and close the EGR valve using the PID EGRP simulation command.
•  Visually inspect the EGR valve operation.
•  Does the EGR valve operate according to simulation commanded values?
Yes
Go to Step 9.
No
Go to the next step.
7
INSPECT THE EGR VALVE
•  Inspect the EGR valve.
•  Is the EGR valve normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the EGR valve.
Then go to Step 9.
8
INSPECT EGR VALVE POSITION SENSOR
•  Inspect the EGR valve position sensor.
•  Is the EGR valve position sensor normal?
Yes
Go to the next step.
No
Replace the EGR valve.
Then go to the next step.
9
VERIFY THAT DTC P0490:00 TROUBLESHOOTING IS COMPLETED
•  Make sure to reconnect all disconnected connectors.
•  Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.
•  Run the vehicle under the FREEZE FRAME DATA stored condition.
•  Is the same DTC present?
Yes
Repeat the inspection from Step 1.
•  If the malfunction recurs, replace the PCM.
Go to the next step.
No
Go to the next step.
10
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
•  Perform the after repair procedure.
•  Are any DTCs present?
Yes
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
No
DTC troubleshooting completed.
