DTC P0488 |
EGR throttle valve control circuit range/performance |
---|---|
DETECTION CONDITION
|
• If the PCM detects any of the following conditions, the PCM determines that there is a malfunction in the EGR throttle valve control circuit.
|
POSSIBLE CAUSE
|
• EGR throttle valve base value reset procedure improperly
• EGR throttle valve connector or terminal malfunction
• Open circuit in wiring harness between main relay terminal D and EGR throttle valve terminal D
• Short to ground in wiring harness between ENG INJ fuse and EGR throttle valve terminal D
• EGR throttle valve stuck
• Contaminate in EGR throttle valve
• PCM connector or terminal malfunction
• Open circuit in wiring harness between EGR throttle valve terminal C and PCM terminal 247
• EGR throttle valve position sensor malfunction
• EGR throttle valve actuator 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 off, then to ON (engine off).
• Perform the Pending Trouble Code Access Procedure and DTC Reading Procedure.
• Is the following PENDING CODE/DTC also present?
|
Yes
|
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
|
||
4
|
PERFORM EGR THROTTLE VALVE BASE VALUE RESET
• Clear the DTC from the PCM memory using the M-MDS.
• Perform the EGR THROTTLE VALVE BASE VALUE RESET procedures.
• Run the vehicle under the FREEZE FRAME DATA stored condition.
• Is the same DTC present?
|
Yes
|
Go to the next step.
|
No
|
Troubleshooting is completed.
Go to Step 10.
|
||
5
|
INSPECT EGR THROTTLE VALVE CONNECTOR CONDITION
• Switch the ignition to OFF.
• Disconnect the air bypass valve connector.
• Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion).
• Is there any malfunction?
|
Yes
|
Repair or replace the connector and/or terminals, then go to Step 10.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
|
||
6
|
INSPECT EGR THROTTLE VALVE ACTUATOR POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT FOR OPEN OR SHORT TO GROUND
• Air bypass valve connector is disconnected.
• Switch the ignition to ON (engine off).
• Measure the voltage at the EGR throttle valve terminal D (wiring harness-side).
• Is the voltage B+?
|
Yes
|
Go to the next step.
|
No
|
Verify the ENG INJ fuse condition.
• If the ENG INJ fuse is blown, repair or replace wiring harness for a possible short to ground circuit.
• If the ENG INJ fuse is normal, repair or replace wiring harness for a possible open circuit.
Then go to Step 10.
|
||
7
|
VISUALLY INSPECT EGR THROTTLE VALVE FOR CONTAMINATION
• Remove the EGR throttle valve component.
• Is there any contamination?
|
Yes
|
Clean the EGR throttle valve, then go to Step 10.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
|
||
8
|
INSPECT PCM CONNECTOR CONDITION
• Disconnect the PCM connector.
• Inspect for poor connection (such as damaged/pulled-out pins, corrosion).
• Is there any malfunction?
|
Yes
|
Repair or replace the connector and/or terminals, then go to Step 10.
|
No
|
Go to the next step.
|
||
9
|
INSPECT EGR THROTTLE VALVE ACTUATOR CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR OPEN
• EGR throttle valve and PCM connectors are disconnected.
• Inspect continuity between EGR throttle valve C (wiring harness-side) and PCM terminal 247 (wiring harness-side).
• Is there continuity?
|
Yes
|
Replace the EGR throttle valve component, then go to the next step.
|
No
|
Repair or replace the wiring harness for a possible open circuit, then go to the next step.
|
||
10
|
VERIFY THAT DTC P0488 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.
|
||
11
|
VERIFY AFTER REPAIR PROCEDURE
• Perform the after repair procedure.
• Are any DTCs present?
|
Yes
|
Go to the applicable DTC inspection.
|
No
|
DTC troubleshooting completed.
