EGR Backpressure Transducer: Description and Operation
Electric EGR Transducer (EET)
Vacuum Control Solenoid Valve Operation
EGR Mounting
Electric EGR Transducer (EET)
NOTE: The EET assembly is a vacuum control solenoid and a backpressure transducer, in one package.
PURPOSE
The PCM controls when the EGR valve can be actuated, through the solenoid valve portion of the Electronic EGR Transducer (EET).
OPERATION
Ported vacuum from the throttle body, is supplied to the solenoid valve.
The PCM controls the flow of vacuum between the throttle body and the back pressure transducer, (through the solenoid ground circuit).
-
When the solenoid is energized (grounded), no vacuum is supplied to the transducer.
-
When the solenoid is de-energized (not grounded), vacuum is supplied to the transducer.
The solenoid will always be energized (no EGR), under following conditions:
