Malfunction of Exhaust Gas Recirculation (Functional Chain)




Malfunction of Exhaust Gas Recirculation (Functional Chain)

Check component Y31/1 (EGR vacuum transducer).
Test 1 Test Exhaust Gas Recirculation (Function Chain).
Test 2 Check component Y31/1 (EGR vacuum transducer).
Test 3 Perform mechanical inspection of component Y31/1 (EGR vacuum transducer).

1 Test Exhaust Gas Recirculation (Function Chain).

Test sequence
- Start engine.
- Actuate component Y31/1 (EGR vacuum transducer).(Actuate with key F2.)

Note: Component M4/3 (engine/AC electric suction fan) runs with an on/off ratio of 50 % during the actuations for safety reasons.

Note Communication with ECU required.
