cranking. Whenever the Powertrain Control Module
(PCM) sets a Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) that
affects vehicle emissions, it illuminates the MIL. If a
problem is detected, the PCM sends a message over
the CCD Bus to the instrument cluster to illuminate
the lamp. The PCM illuminates the MIL only for
DTC's that affect vehicle emissions. The MIL stays
on continuously when the PCM has entered a
Limp-In mode or identified a failed emission compo-
nent or system. The MIL remains on until the DTC
is erased. Refer to the Diagnostic Trouble Code
charts in this group for emission related codes.
Also, the MIL either flashes or illuminates contin-
uously when the PCM detects active engine misfire.
Refer to Misfire Monitoring in this section.
Additionally, the PCM may reset (turn off) the MIL
when one of the following occur:
²PCM does not detect the malfunction for 3 con-
secutive trips (except misfire and fuel system moni-
tors).
²PCM does not detect a malfunction while per-
forming three successive engine misfire or fuel sys-
tem tests. The PCM performs these tests while the
engine is operating within6375 RPM of and within
10 % of the load of the operating condition at which
the malfunction was first detected.
STATE DISPLAY TEST MODE
The switch inputs to the Powertrain Control Mod-
ule (PCM) have two recognized states; HIGH and
LOW. For this reason, the PCM cannot recognize the
difference between a selected switch position versus
an open circuit, a short circuit, or a defective switch.
If the State Display screen shows the change from
HIGH to LOW or LOW to HIGH, assume the entire
switch circuit to the PCM functions properly. From
the state display screen, access either State Display
Inputs and Outputs or State Display Sensors.

With the engine idling, remove the PCV valve from
its attaching point. If the valve is operating properly,
a hissing noise will be heard and a strong vacuum
felt when placing a finger over the valve inlet (Fig.
10). With the engine off, shake the valve. The valve
should rattle when shaken. Replace the valve if it
does not operate properly.Do not attempt to clean
the PCV valve.

the amount of EGR supplied to the engine. This pro-
vides the correct amount of exhaust gas recirculation
for different operating conditions.
This system does not allow EGR at idle. The EGR
systems can operate at all coolant temperatures
above 60ÉF as long as the battery ambient tempera-
ture is above 7ÉF.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
EGR SYSTEM ON-BOARD DIAGNOSTICS
The PCM performs an on-board diagnostic check of
the EGR system. The diagnostic system uses the
electronic EGR transducer for the system tests.
The diagnostic check activates only during selected
engine/driving conditions. When the conditions are
met, the PCM energizes the transducer solenoid to
disable the EGR. The PCM checks for a change in
the heated oxygen sensor signal. If the air-fuel mix-
ture goes lean, the PCM will attempt to enrichen the
mixture. The PCM registers a Diagnostic Trouble
Code (DTC) if the EGR system is not operating cor-
rectly. After registering a DTC, the PCM turns on the
malfunction indicator (Check Engine) lamp after 2
consecutive trips. There are 2 types of failures sensed
by the PCM. The first is a short or open in the elec-
trical solenoid circuit. The second is a mechanical
failure or loss of vacuum. The Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (MIL) indicates the need for service.
If a problem is indicated by the MIL and a DTC for
the EGR system is set, check for proper operation of
the EGR system. Use the System Test, EGR Gas
Flow Test. If the EGR system tests properly, check
the system using the DRB scan tool. Refer to
On-Board Diagnosis sections in this Group. Also,
refer to the DRB scan tool and the appropriate Pow-
ertrain Diagnostics Procedure manual.
EGR SYSTEM TEST
WARNING: APPLY PARKING BRAKE AND/OR
BLOCK WHEELS BEFORE TESTING THE EGR SYS-
TEM.
(1) Check the condition of all EGR system hoses
and tubes for leaks, cracks, kinks and hardening of
rubber hoses. Repair and correct these conditions
before performing any tests.
(2) Be sure the hoses at both the EGR valve and
EGR valve control are connected to the proper fit-
tings (Fig. 4).
(3) Be sure the electrical connector is firmly con-
nected at the valve control.
(4) To check EGR system operation, connect the
DRB scan tool to the 16±way data link connector.
The data link connector is located on the lower edge
of the instrument panel near the steering column.
Refer to the appropriate Powertrain Diagnostic Pro-
cedures service manual for operation of the DRB
scan tool when diagnosing the EGR system.
(5) After checking the system with the DRB scan
tool, proceed to the following EGR Valve Leakage and
EGR Valve Control Tests and repair as necessary.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION (Continued)

²An EGR Solenoid. The EGR solenoid is located
in the engine compartment next to the PDC (Fig. 3).
The EGR solenoid opens and closes the vaccum sup-
ply that opens and closes the EGR valve. The
amount of time the EGR solenoid is held open is con-
trolled by the PCM. This is referred to as the ªon
timeº of the EGR valve.
²An EGR tube (Fig. 2) connecting a passage in
the EGR valve to the rear of the exhaust manifold.
²The vacuum pump, which supplies vacuum for
the EGR Solenoid valve. This pump also supplies
vacuum for operation of the power brake booster. The
pump is located internally in the front of the engine
block (Fig. 4) and is driven by the crankshaft gear.
²Vacuum lines and hoses to connect the various
components.
When the PCM supplies a ªonº or ªoffº signal to the
EGR Solenoid by grounding the circuit, EGR system
operation starts to occur. The PCM will monitor var-
ious engine conditions and determine when to supply
and remove this ground signal. Some of the engine
conditions that are monitored are the engine coolant
temperature, throttle position and engine speed sen-
sors.
When the ground signal is supplied to the EGR
Solenoid, vacuum from the vacuum pump will be
allowed to pass to the EGR valve via a connecting
hose.
Exhaust gas recirculation will begin in this order
when:
²The PCM determines that EGR system opera-
tion is necessary.²The engine is running to operate the vacuum
pump.
²A ground signal is supplied to the EVM.
²Vacuum passes to the EGR valve.
²The inlet seat (poppet valve) at the bottom of
the EGR valve opens to dilute and recirculate
exhaust gas back into the intake manifold.
The EGR system will be shut down by the PCM
after 60 seconds of continuous engine idling to
improve idle quality.
DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING
EGR GAS FLOW TEST
Use the following test procedure to determine if
exhaust gas is flowing through the EGR valve. It can
also be used to determine if the EGR tube is plugged,
or the system passages in the intake or exhaust man-
ifolds are plugged.
This is not to be used as a complete test of the
EGR system.
The engine must be started, running and warmed
to operating temperature for this test.
(1) All EGR valves are equipped with a vacuum
supply fitting located on the EGR valve vacuum
motor (Fig. 2).
(2) Disconnect the rubber hose from the vacuum
supply fitting (Fig. 2).
(3) Connect a hand±held vacuum pump to this fit-
ting.
(4) Start the engine.

DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION (Continued)

(5) Slowly apply 10 inches of vacuum to the fitting
on the EGR valve motor. Vacuum should hold steady
at 10 inches. If not, replace the EGR valve. If vac-
uum holds steady at 10 inches, proceed to next step.
(6) While applying vacuum, and with the engine
running at idle speed, the idle speed should drop, a
rough idle may occur, or the engine may even stall.
This is indicating that exhaust gas is flowing through
the EGR tube between the intake and exhaust man-
ifolds.
(7) If the engine speed did not change, the EGR
valve may be defective, the EGR tube may be
plugged with carbon, or the passages in the intake
and exhaust manifolds may be plugged with carbon.
(a) Remove EGR valve from engine. Refer to
EGR Valve Removal in this group.
(b) Apply vacuum to the vacuum motor fitting
and observe the stem on the EGR valve. If the
stem is moving, it can be assumed that the EGR
valve is functioning correctly. The problem is in
either a plugged EGR tube or plugged passages at
the intake or exhaust manifolds. Refer to step (c).
If the stem will not move, replace the EGR valve.
(c) Remove the EGR tube between the intake
and exhaust manifolds. Check and clean the EGR
tube and its related openings on the manifolds.
Refer to EGR Tube in this group for procedures.
Do not attempt to clean the EGR valve. If the
valve shows evidence of heavy carbon build±up near
the base, replace it.
ELECTRIC VACUUM MODULATOR (EVM) TEST
VACUUM TEST
With the engine running, disconnect the vacuum
supply line at the fitting on the EVM. Minimum vac-
uum should be no less than 20 inches. If vacuum is
lower, check for leaks in vacuum supply line. If leaks
cannot be found, check for low vacuum at vacuum
pump. Refer to Group 5, Brake System for proce-
dures.
