damage. If the harness appears to be OK, discon-
nect the ECM, turn the ignition on, and observe a
voltmeter connected to the 58X reference circuit at
the ECM harness connector while moving connec-

change in voltage will indicate the location of thefault.
Reviewing the Failure Records vehicle mileage since the
diagnostic test last failed may help determine how often

the malfunction occurred. The information is then

2. Commanding the EGR valve open determines
whether the EGR system is totally restricted or par-
tially restricted.
3. Visually and physically inspect the EGR passages
and valve for excessive carbon deposits or dam-
age.
4. Be sure all gasket material is removed from the
EGR mounting surface. Even a small amount of
material may cause a DTC P0401 to set.
5. This step verifies if the fault is present and also ver-
ifies if a repair corrected the problem. If the EGR
Deceleration Filter value stays near 0 or a positivenumber after several tests have been run, then a
small restriction may still exist. Be sure to check the
EGR pipe for damage or dents and the EGR valve
for any excessive carbon build up. Only 1 test per
ignition cycle will run unless a DTC P0401 has
been cleared or the battery has been disconnected.
6. Clearing DTCs is a very important step for this
diagnostic. The clearing function allows the EGR
valve to relearn a new pintle position as the old
pintle position was inaccurate due to the failure that
caused the DTC. The DTC must be cleared with
the ignition ON, engine OFF or when the engine is
idling. If the ECM sees a EGR command, the new
pintle will not be learned.

The EGR Decel Filter value should always be at –3 or low-
er. If the EGR Decel Filter number becomes more positive
(towards 0 or more), then the EGR system is becoming re-
stricted. Look for possible damage to the EGR pipe or for
a restriction caused by carbon deposits in the EGR pas-
sages or on the EGR valve.
Test Description
Number(s) below refer to the step number(s) on the Diag-
nostic Table.
1. The On–Board Diagnostic (EOBD) System Check
prompts the technician to complete some basic
checks and store the freeze frame and failure re-
cords data on the scan tool if applicable. This
creates an electronic copy of the data taken when
the malfunction occurred. The information is then
stored on the scan tool for later reference.
2. Commanding the EGR valve open determines
whether the EGR system can control the EGR
valve accurately and if the fault is present. The dif-
ference between the current and commanded posi-
tion is greater than 15%.
3. When the EGR valve electrical connector is discon-
nected, the scan tool should display the Actual
EGR Position as 0%. If it does not, the fault lies
either in the EGR signal circuit or the ECM.
4. There may be a slight delay for the voltage dis-
played on the DVM to change after the scan tool
commands the EGR valve to operate.
5. An open or poor connection condition may have
caused this DTC to set. Be sure to check the termi-
nals for being backed out, improperly formed or
damaged, and for poor tension.
7. The test light will have glowed brightly in the pre-
vious step if the EGR control circuit was shorted to
B+ and the Actual EGR Position on the scan toolwill display 100%. A test light that did not illuminate,
indicates that the circuit may be open or shorted to
ground.
9. If the EGR valve 5 volt reference is shorted to volt-
age, the digital voltmeter (DVM) will read battery
voltage and additional DTCs may be set and the
engine performance will be poor.
12. The replacement ECM must be reprogrammed.
Refer to the latest Techline procedure for ECM re-
programming.
13. Although the circuitry acted correctly when
checked, a problem may still lie within the terminals
which would not show up in probe type testing. Be
sure to check the terminals for being backed out,
improperly formed or damaged, and for poor ten-
sion.
17. All circuits to the EGR valve are OK at this point.
The fault lies internally in the EGR valve and, there-
fore, must be replaced. Be sure all gasket material
is removed from the EGR mounting surface. Even
a small amount of material may cause a DTC
P0401 to set.
18. Check the terminals for being backed out, improp-
erly formed or damaged, and for poor tension.
19. Clearing DTCs is a very important step for this

creates an electronic copy of the data taken when

2. If any component DTCs are set, diagnose those
DTCs first. A fault in a component can cause the
converter to appear degraded or may have caused
its failure.
3. This step includes checks for conditions that can
cause the three–way catalytic converter to appear
degraded. Repair any problems found before pro-
ceeding with this table.
5. If the three–way catalytic converter needs to be
replaced, make sure that another condition is not
present which would cause the converter to be-
come damaged. These conditions may include thefollowing: misfire, high engine oil or coolant con-
sumption, and/or retarded spark timing or weak
spark. To avoid damaging the replacement convert-
er, correct any possible causes of converter dam-
age before replacing the catalytic converter.
6. Clearing DTCs allows the catalyst test to be run up
to 6 times this ignition cycle. Once the ignition is
cycled, the test will run only once. Driving the ve-
hicle heats the catalyst to a test temperature. The
ECM must see predetermined amount of time at
above idle before allowing the catalyst test to run at
idle. Once at idle, the ECM will allow the system to
stabilize and then test the catalyst in 2 stages.
