EXHAUST GAS RECIRCULATION (EGR) SYSTEM





System Configuration Diagram









EGR VALVE POSITION SENSOR



The EGR valve position sensor, which is mounted on the EGR valve, converts the position of the EGR valve into the electrical signals and inputs it into the engine-ECU.
Based on the voltage that is output by this sensor, the engine-ECU effects the EGR valve feedback control.

The diagram describes the characteristics of this sensor.

EGR VALVE (DC MOTOR)



The EGR valve is located in the middle of the bypass that recirculates the exhaust gas from the exhaust manifold into the intake manifold. It is a type of DC motor that controls the opening and closing of the valve in accordance with the changes in the direction of the electrical current.
