P1408 - EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION (EGR) FLOW OUT OF SELF-TEST RANGE

Description:  This test is carried out during the key on engine running (KOER) on-demand self-test only. The EGR system is commanded on at a fixed engine speed. The test does not pass and the DTC is set when the measured EGR flow falls above or below the required calibration.
Possible Causes: 
  • EGR control circuit open
  • EGR control circuit short to ground
  • EGR control circuit short to voltage
Diagnostic Aids:  Use the output state control function of the scan tool and monitor the EGRVP PID while commanding the EGR actuator on. If EGR is introduced into the engine at idle, the RPM drops or stalls out.
