Code No. P0402: EGR Flow Excessive




OPERATION



  • Refer to Code No. P0102: Air flow sensor circuit low input .
  • Refer to Code No. P0403: EGR valve DC motor malfunction .
  • Refer to Code No. P0489: EGR valve position sensor circuit low input .

FUNCTION



  • The engine ECU monitors the EGR flow rate.

TROUBLE JUDGMENT


Check Condition
  • The amount of fuel consumption, the engine speed, the target lambda, the gear position, the vehicle speed, the intake air temperature and the atmospheric pressure are within the threshold values.
Judgment Criterion
  • The EGR flow rate is higher than the specified value.

FAIL-SAFE AND BACKUP FUNCTION



  • The small injection quantity learning is prohibited.
  • The DPF regeneration is prohibited.
  • The NPG/SPG control is stopped.
  • The EGR control is stopped (fully closed).

PROBABLE CAUSES



  • Failed EGR passage (air suction)
  • Failed connector or harness damage of EGR valve system
  • Failed EGR valve operation
  • Failed connector or harness damage of AFS system
  • Failed AFS (abnormal output characteristics)
  • Failed engine-ECU
