Check level sensor operation
1. Remove the fuel tank unit.
2.
Apply battery voltage between terminal (B) and (C) through
a 1.12 watt bulb. Check that the bulb lights.
Note:
It will take a short time for the bulb light.
3. Submerge the sensor in fuel. Check that the bulb goes out.
If operation is not correct, replace the fuel tank unit.

BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT
The brake system warning light comes on while the parking
brake is set and the engine run position.
Note:
The parking brake indicator light circuit is designed to
prevent driving of the vehicle with the parking brake on.
It does not indicate the condition of the parking brake
system.



The parking brake switch is in parallel with the brake fluid
switch.



The brake system warning light also comes on when reservoir
brake fluid level falls below the specified limit with the parking
brake released and the engine run position.

POOR FUEL ECONOMY SYMPTOM
DEFINITIONS: Fuel economy, as measured by an actual road test, is noticeably lower than expected. Also, economy
is noticeably lower than it was on this vehicle at one time, as previously shown by an actual road test. (Larger than
standard tires will cause odometer readings to be incorrect, and that may cause fuel economy to appear poor when it
is actually normal.)

GENERAL DESCRIPTION FOR EXHAUST
GAS RECIRCULATION (EGR) SYSTEM
Linear EGR Valve









060R200237
Legend
(1) ECM
(2) Linear EGR Valve
(3) Throttle
(4) Exhaust Manifold


The exhaust gas re-circulation (EGR) system is used to
reduce emission levels of oxides of nitrogen (NOx).
NOx emission levels are caused by a high combustion
levels by decreasing the combustion temperature.
The EGR valve feeds small amount of exhaust gas
back into the combustion chamber. The fuel/air mixture
will be diluted and combustion temperatures reduced.
Linear EGR valve Operation and Results o
f
Incorrect Operation
The linear EGR valve is designed to accurately supply
EGR to the engine independent of intake manifold
vacuum. The valve controls EGR flow from the exhaus
t
to the intake manifold through an orifice with a ECM
controlled pintle. During operation, the ECM controls
pintle position by monitoring the pintle position feedback
signal.

The linear EGR valve is activated under the following
conditions:

No DTC relating to the EGR.

Engine speed is between 1200 and 4375rpm.

Engine coolant temperature is between 20 and
100
.

Throttle position sensor output voltage is belo
w
3V.

Too mach EGR flow at idle, cruise or cold operation
may cause any of the following conditions to occur:

Engine stalls after a cold start.

Engine stalls at idle after deceleration.

Vehicle surges during cruise.

Rough idle.

Too little or no EGR flow may allow combustion
temperatures to get too high. This could cause:

Spark knock (detonation).

Emission test failure.

Poor fuel economy.

6E-70 3.5L ENGINE DRIVEABILITY AND EMISSIONS
Fuel Quality
Fuel quality is not a new issue for the automotive
industry, but its potential for turning on the MIL (“Check
Engine" lamp) with OBD systems is new.
Fuel additives such as “dry gas" and “octane
enhancers" may affect the performance of the fuel. The
Reed Vapor Pressure of the fuel can also create
problems in the fuel system, especially during the spring
and fall months when severe ambient temperature
swings occur. A high Reed Vapor Pressure could sho
w
up as a Fuel Trim DTC due to excessive canister
loading. High vapor pressures generated in the fuel
tank can also affect the Evaporative Emission
diagnostic as well.
Using fuel with the wrong octane rating for your vehicle
may cause driveability problems. Many of the majo
r
fuel companies advertise that using “premium" gasoline
will improve the performance of your vehicle. Mos
t
premium fuels use alcohol to increase the octane rating
of the fuel. Although alcohol-enhanced fuels may raise
the octane rating, the fuel's ability to turn into vapor in
cold temperatures deteriorates. This may affect the
starting ability and cold driveability of the engine.
Low fuel levels can lead to fuel starvation, lean engine
operation, and eventually engine misfire.
Non-OEM Parts
All of the OBD diagnostics have been calibrated to run
with OEM parts.
Aftermarket electronics, such as cellular phones,
stereos, and anti-theft devices, may radiate EMI into the
control system if they are improperly installed. This may
cause a false sensor reading and turn on the MIL
(“Check Engine" lamp).
Environment
Temporary environmental conditions, such as localized
flooding, will have an effect on the vehicle ignition
system. If the ignition system is rain-soaked, it can
temporarily cause engine misfire and turn on the MIL
(“Check Engine" lamp).
Vehicle Marshaling
The transportation of new vehicles from the assembly
plant to the dealership can involve as many as 60 key
cycles within 5Km miles of driving. This type o
f
operation contributes to the fuel fouling of the spark
plugs and will turn on the MIL (“Check Engine" lamp).

Poor Vehicle Maintenance
The sensitivity of OBD diagnostics will cause the MIL
(“Check Engine" lamp) to turn on if the vehicle is no
t
maintained properly. Restricted air filters, fuel filters,
and crankcase deposits due to lack of oil changes o
r
improper oil viscosity can trigger actual vehicle faults
that were not previously monitored prior to OBD. Poo
r
vehicle maintenance can not be classified as a
“non-vehicle fault", but with the sensitivity of OBD
diagnostics, vehicle maintenance schedules must be
more closely followed.
Severe Vibration
The Misfire diagnostic measures small changes in the
rotational speed of the crankshaft. Severe driveline
vibrations in the vehicle, such as caused by an
excessive amount of mud on the wheels, can have the
same effect on crankshaft speed as misfire.
Related System Faults
Many of the OBD system diagnostics will not run if the
ECM detects a fault on a related system or component.
One example would be that if the ECM detected a
Misfire fault, the diagnostics on the catalytic converte
r
would be suspended until Misfire fault was repaired. If
the Misfire fault was severe enough, the catalytic
converter could be damaged due to overheating and
would never set a Catalyst DTC until the Misfire faul
t
was repaired and the Catalyst diagnostic was allowed to
run to completion. If this happens, the customer may
have to make two trips to the dealership in order to
repair the vehicle.
Maintenance Schedule
Refer to the Maintenance Schedule.
Visual/Physical Engine Compartment
Inspection
Perform a careful visual and physical engine
compartment inspection when performing any
diagnostic procedure or diagnosing the cause of an
emission test failure. This can often lead to repairing a
problem without further steps. Use the following
guidelines when performing a visual/physical inspection:

Inspect all vacuum hoses for punches, cuts,
disconnects, and correct routing.

Inspect hoses that are difficult to see behind othe
r
components.

Inspect all wires in the engine compartment fo
r
proper connections, burned or chafed spots, pinched
wires, contact with sharp edges or contact with ho
t
exhaust manifolds or pipes.
