Circuit Description

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Suzuki Swift + and 2004 Chevrolet Aveo. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The engine control module (ECM) monitors the position of the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve through the EGR valve position sensor. The EGR valve position sensor sends a feedback voltage on the signal circuit to the ECM. This voltage varies depending on the position of the EGR valve. The ECM interprets this voltage as the position of the EGR valve. When the ignition switch is turned ON, the ECM records the minimum value of the EGR valve position sensor which is the learned closed position. If the ECM detects a difference between the actual closed EGR position and the learned closed position of the EGR valve, DTC P0488 sets.
