Hyundai Accent (HC): Engine Control System / Electric EGR Control Valve

- Description The Electric EGR Control Valve is installed in between the EGR cooler and the exhaust line and is a solenoid valve. This valve controls EGR (Exhaust Gas Recirculation) amount by the ECM's duty control signal depending on engine load and the need of intake air.The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system is used to add the exhaust gas to intake air in order to reduce an excess of air and the temperature in the combustion chamber.

1.Turn the ignition switch OFF.

2.Disconnect the EEGR valve connector.

3.Check that the EEGR valve is stuck by foreign material.

4.Measure resistance between motor 4 and 5 control terminals of the motor.

5.Check that the resistance is within the specification.

1.Connect the GDS to the data link connector.

2.Perform the fully open and the fully closing operation of the EEGR valve by using the actuation test.

3.Check that the voltage is within the specification.

1.Turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the battery negative (-) terminal.

2.Remove the battery tray.(Refer to Engine Electrical System - "Battery")

3.Disconnect the harness wiring & injector connector.

4.Remove the EEGR cooler pipe (A).

5.Remove the EEGR control valve (C) after removing the mounting bolts (B).
