DTC P1494 EGR SOLENOID VALVE SIGNAL #2 CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION (LOW INPUT)

DTC P1494 EGR SOLENOID VALVE SIGNAL #2 CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION (LOW INPUT)

OUTLINE OF DIAGNOSIS


Detect the open/short circuit of EGR.

Judge NG when ECM output level is different from actual terminal level.


COMPONENT DESCRIPTION


(1)

Engine Control Module (ECM)

(3)

Detecting circuit

(5)

Battery voltage

(2)

CPU

(4)

Switching circuit

(6)

Main relay



ENABLE CONDITION

Secondary Parameters Enable Conditions
Target position of EGR valve

> 0 step

Battery voltage

> 10.9 V



GENERAL DRIVING CYCLE

Perform the diagnosis continuously when EGR operating.

DIAGNOSTIC METHOD

Abnormality Judgment

Judge NG when the continuous time until completing the malfunction criteria below becomes more than time needed for diagnosis.

Malfunction Criteria Threshold Value
Terminal voltage level when ECM outputs OFF signal

Low level



Time Needed for Diagnosis: 2.5 seconds

Malfunction Indicator Light Illumination: Illuminates as soon as malfunction occurs.

Normality Judgment

Judge OK and clear the NG when the malfunction criteria below are not completed.

Judgment Value

Malfunction Criteria Threshold Value
Terminal voltage level when ECM outputs ON signal

High level



DTC CLEAR CONDITION


When the OK idling cycle is completed 40 times in a row

When “Clear Memory” was performed


MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT CLEAR CONDITION


When the OK driving cycle was completed 3 times in a row

When “Clear Memory” was performed


FAIL SAFE


Front oxygen (A/F) sensor main learning compensation: Not allowed to calculate

Knock sensor learning compensation: Not allowed to calculate

EGR control: Not allowed to operate


ECM OPERATION AT DTC SETTING

Memorize the freeze frame data. (For test mode $02)
