P0405 – EGR Valve Position Sensor Circuit Low Input Except Euro5b MMC L200 IV

 Posted by  Posted on September 28, 2020

OPERATION

  • A power voltage of 5 V is applied to the EGR valve assembly power terminal (terminal No. 3) from the engine-ECU (terminal No. 71) and earthed to the engine-ECU (terminal No. 81) from the EGR valve assembly (terminal No. 2).
  • The sensor signal is inputted to the engine-ECU (terminal No. 57) from the EGR valve assembly output terminal (terminal No. 1).

    • FUNCTION

  • The EGR valve assembly detects the position of the EGR valve and sends the signal to the engine-ECU.
  • Based on the signal, the engine-ECU performs the feedback control of the EGR valve.

    • TROUBLE JUDGEMENT

  • Battery positive voltage is 8 – 16 V
  • 2 seconds later after the ignition switch has been in “ON” position or the engine has started up.
  • The EGR valve position sensor output voltage is 0.20 V or less for 0.5 second.

    • PROBABLE CAUSES

  • Failed EGR valve position sensor
  • Open/short circuit or harness damage in EGR valve position sensor circuit or loose connector contact
  • Failed engine-ECU
