(Trouble diagnosis content)
DTC detection condition
P044E00EGR SENSOR C
(EGR sensor C circuit high)
Diagnosis conditionIgnition switch ON
Signal (terminal)EGR volume control valve signal
ThresholdECM detects that a voltage signal from EGR volume control valve position sensor is less than 0.275 V for 5 consecutive seconds.
Diagnosis delay time5 seconds or more
 
 
POSSIBLE CAUSE
  • Harness or connectors
    (EGR volume control valve position sensor circuit is open or shorted.)
  • EGR volume control valve
 
 
FAIL-SAFE
Engine operating condition in fail-safe mode
Fail safe modeVehicle behavior
Traveling control modeAccelerator angle variation controlECM controls the accelerator pedal depression speed to make it slower than actual speed. This causes a drop in accelerating performance and encourages the driver to repair malfunction.
noteECM does not control the accelerator pedal releasing speed.
Device fix mode
  • This mode fixes the electric IVT motor and the EVT control solenoid valve in the reference position.
  • The intake manifold runner control valve motor is turned OFF (intake manifold runner control valve opens).
  • A control signals is not transmitted to EGR volume control valve and the EGR volume control is deactivated.
 
 
DTC Confirmation Procedure
