Exhaust Gas Recirculation "A" Flow

DTC

P04019C

Exhaust Gas Recirculation "A" Low / Insufficient Flow

DTC

P04029B

Exhaust Gas Recirculation "A" High/Excessive Flow

DESCRIPTION

Based on the driving conditions, the ECM regulates the volume of exhaust gas that is recirculated to each engine cylinder in order to lower the combustion temperature and reduce NOx emissions. The ECM monitors signals such as engine speed, engine coolant temperature, electric load, and vehicle speed. When the EGR permission conditions are met, the ECM controls the opening of the EGR valve linearly through signals to the EGR step motor.

Exhaust Gas Recirculation "A" High/Excessive Flow

During fuel cut, when the change in intake manifold pressure when the EGR valve assembly is operating and not operating is insufficient, the intake manifold pressure is 26.95 kPa (3.91 psi) or more when the EGR valve assembly is not operating (1 trip detection logic).

  • EGR valve assembly

HINT:

DTC P04019C or DTC P04029B will only be stored when DTC P040000 is stored in the second trip (except Mexico Models).

MONITOR DESCRIPTION

except Mexico Models

  • P040000

    During fuel cut (vehicle being driven with idle ON), when the change in intake manifold pressure when the EGR valve assembly is operating and not operating is insufficient, the ECM determines that the EGR valve is stuck and stores DTC P040000 and illuminates the MIL.

  • P04019C

    During fuel cut (vehicle being driven with idle ON), when the change in intake manifold pressure when the EGR valve assembly is operating and not operating is insufficient, the intake manifold pressure is less than the threshold when the EGR valve assembly is not operating, the ECM determines that the flow through the EGR valve is hindered and stores DTC P04019C and illuminates the MIL.

  • P04029B

    During fuel cut (vehicle being driven with idle ON), when the change in intake manifold pressure when the EGR valve assembly is operating and not operating is insufficient, the intake manifold pressure is more than the threshold when the EGR valve assembly is not operating, the ECM determines that the flow through the EGR valve is excessive and stores DTC P04029B and illuminates the MIL.

for Mexico Models

  • P04019C

    The ECM monitors the pressure inside the intake manifold while opening and closing the EGR valve during fuel cut operation. If there is no change in the manifold absolute pressure sensor value, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction of the EGR valve assembly, illuminates the MIL and stores this DTC.

  9. Drive the vehicle at 60 km/h (37 mph) or more for 5 minutes or more [B].

    CAUTION:

    When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

  10. Idle the engine for 30 seconds or more [C].
  11. With the shift lever in M, accelerate the vehicle to 80 km/h (50 mph) or more [D].

    CAUTION:

    When performing the confirmation driving pattern, obey all speed limits and traffic laws.

    • DTC judgment completed
    • System normal

    ABNORMAL

    • DTC judgment completed
    • System abnormal

    INCOMPLETE

    • DTC judgment not completed

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

HINT:

  • By using the Control the EGR Step Position Active Test, the operation of the EGR valve can be checked.
  • When the engine is idling steadily with the EGR valve fully closed, if the EGR valve is normal and it is opened using the Active Test, the Data List value changes as follows.

  • Read Freeze Frame Data using the Techstream. The ECM records vehicle and driving condition information as Freeze Frame Data the moment a DTC is stored. When troubleshooting, Freeze Frame Data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
