INSPECTION(1) Remove the EGR temperature sensor.
(2) Place the EGR temperature ‘sensor in water,
.and then
measure the resistance value between terminals 1

while increasing the water’s temperature.
Replace the EGR temperature sensor if there is a signifi-
cant deviation from the standard value.

EGR CONTROL SOLENOID VALVE
INSPECTION
NOTEWhen disconnecting the vacuum hose, make an identification
mark on it so‘that it can be reconnected to the original position.(1) Disconnect the vacuum hose (yellow and green stripe)
from the solenoid valve.
(2) Disconnect the harness connector.
(3) Connect a hand vacuum pump to the nipple to which the
green-striped vacuum hose was connected.
(4) Apply a vacuum and check for air-tightness when voltage
applied directly to the EGR control solenoid valve and whenthe voltage is discontinued.
