Electric EGR Transducer: Description and Operation
EGR Solenoid and Transducer

California Emissions

Solenoid Trio

Engine controller controls vacuum to EGR transducer through solenoid by applying or removing solenoid ground.

  

^

ENERGIZED:  no vacuum to EGR transducer.

  

^

Always ENERGIZED during warm-up, idle, wide open throttle, and rapid deceleration/acceleration. 

 

NOTE:  Since vacuum admitted when solenoid deactivated, driveability problems will occur if solenoid is disconnected.

On California vehicles engine controller periodically tests EGR system operation. If a fault is found, a fault code will be set and CHECK ENGINE
light will be illuminated, indicating vehicle service required.
