id0116a4801100

## Operation Test

1. Carry out the "EGR Control Inspection". (See ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM OPERATION INSPECTION [L8, LF, L3].

  • If not as specified, perform the further inspection for the EGR valve.

## Resistance Inspection

  Note

  • Perform the following test only when directed.

1. Disconnect the negative battery cable.

2. Inspect resistance of the EGR valve coils.

  • If not as specified, replace the EGR valve.
  • If as specified, carry out the "Circuit Open/Short Inspection".

Terminals | Resistance (ohms)
--- | ---
C-E C-A D-B D-F | 12-16

## Circuit Open/Short Inspection

1. Disconnect the PCM connector. (See PCM REMOVAL/INSTALLATION [L8, LF, L3].)

2. Inspect the following wiring harness for open or short (continuity check).

Open circuit

  • If there is no continuity, the circuit is open. Repair or replace the harness.

  - EGR valve terminal E (harness-side) and PCM terminal 2K
  - EGR valve terminal A (harness-side) and PCM terminal 2G
  - EGR valve terminal B (harness-side) and PCM terminal 2L
  - EGR valve terminal F (harness-side) and PCM terminal 2H
  - EGR valve terminal C or D (harness-side) and main relay terminal C (harness-side)

Short circuit

  • If there is continuity, the circuit is shorted. Repair or replace the harness.

  - EGR valve terminal E (harness-side) and GND
  - EGR valve terminal A (harness-side) and GND
  - EGR valve terminal B (harness-side) and GND
  - EGR valve terminal F (harness-side) and GND
  - EGR valve terminal C or D (harness-side) and power supply

3. Remove the EGR valve, and inspect for any damage or clogging.

  • If there is no damage or no clogging, replace the EGR valve.
