EGR Control Solenoid: Testing and Inspection
EGR SOLENOID CHECK
1. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the EGR solenoid.
NOTE: When disconnecting the vacuum hose, always make sure that it can be reconnected at its original position.
2. Disconnect the harness connector.
3. Connect a hand vacuum pump to nipple (A) of the EGR solenoid. (Refer to the illustration.)
4. As described in the chart, check airtightness by applying a vacuum with voltage applied directly from the battery to the EGR solenoid and without
applying voltage.
5. Measure the resistance between the terminals of the EGR solenoid.
Standard value: 29 - 35 Ohm [at 20 °C (68 °F)]
6. Replace the solenoid if resistance is out of specification.
