Diagnostic Method

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

Measure the pressure values when the enable conditions are established, and perform diagnosis by calculating those results.

  1. Label the intake manifold pressure value as PMOF1, which is observed when the enable conditions are established, and set the EGR target step to 52step(s) (nearly full open).
  2. Label the intake manifold pressure value as PMON, which is observed after 1000ms has passed since EGR target step was set to 52step(s) (when the enable conditions were established), and set the EGR target step to 0.
  3. Label the intake manifold pressure as PMOF2, which is observed after 1000ms has passed since EGR target step was set to 0 (after (1000ms + 1000ms) have passed since the enable conditions were established).

Judge as NG when the following conditions are established.

JUDGMENT VALUE SPECIFICATION

Malfunction Criteria Threshold Value
PMON - (PMOF1 + PMOF2)/2 < 2.5kPa (18.63mmHg, 0.7inHg)

Time needed for diagnosis:  1000msx 2 time(s)

Malfunction indicator light illumination:  Illuminates when malfunction occurs in 2 continuous driving cycles.
