Circuit/System Description
WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.
The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve is controlled by the Engine Control Module (ECM). The ECM controls the EGR valve by supplying a 12-volt pulse width modulated signal to the EGR Valve low control circuit and 12 volts to the high control circuit. The ECM monitors the EGR flow performance when the EGR is active by comparing the desired Mass Air Flow (MAF) to the actual MAF. If the actual MAF is less than or greater than a calibrated threshold level the amount of detected EGR flow is out of range.
