Circuit Description
The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve is a smart device and receives commands from
the engine electronic control module (ECM) via the J1939 data link. The EGR valve
performs its own internal diagnostics and reports failures back to the primary engine ECM
using the J1939 data link.
The EGR valve is opened by a motor located on top of the EGR valve. A pin is extended
from the motor and contacts the dual-poppet valve to open the EGR valve. The EGR valve
motor is not used to close the EGR valve. The pin retracts and a spring is used to close the
EGR valve.
Component Location
The EGR valve location can vary depending on the engine application. Use the following
procedure for a detailed component location view. Refer to Procedure 100-002 in Section F.
Conditions for Running the Diagnostics
This diagnostic runs continuously when the keyswitch is in the ON position or when the
engine is running.
Conditions for Setting the Fault Codes
The EGR valve motor measures the position of the EGR valve at initial key ON. If the valve
is detected to be greater than 20 percent open, the fault code is set active.
