Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Control

EGR Control System:

CIRCUIT OPERATION
The EGR control system is used to allow precise control of the EGR valve.
When conditions are NOT suitable for EGR operation, based on signals sent via the crank angle sensor, air flow meter, idle switch, water temperature sensor and the ignition switch, the ECU energizes the solenoid. Refer to EMISSION CONTROLS for further description of the EGR valve.

Vacuum Solenoid:

EGR CONTROL SOLENOID
The ECU supplies the ground circuit to the solenoid. This energizes the solenoid, redirecting vacuum from the source port and valve port to the source port and vent port preventing EGR operation.
