EGR Electronic Vacuum Regulator Solenoid: Description and Operation

EVRV Solenoid

EGR & EVRV Solenoid

OPERATION

To regulate EGR flow, a control module controlled Electronic Vacuum Regulator Valve (EVRV) solenoid is used in the vacuum line. The control
module uses information from the following sensors to regulate the solenoid:
-

Engine Coolant Temperature (ECT) sensor.

-

Throttle Position (TP) sensor.

-

PRNDL position.

-

Distributor (RPM signal).

The EGR vacuum control has an EVRV solenoid that uses "pulse width modulation." This means the control module turns the solenoid "ON" and
"OFF" many times a second and varies the amount of "ON" time ("pulse width") to vary the amount of EGR.
