1. Reset the ECM/PCM.
2. Start the engine.

Is DTC P1498 indicated?

YES - Go to step 3.

NO - Intermittent failure, system is OK at this time. Check for poor connections or loose wires at the EGR valve and the ECM/PCM.

6. Measure voltage between EGR valve 6P connector terminals No.2 and No.3.

Is there approx.. 5V ?

YES - Replace the EGR valve.

NO - Go to step 7.




7. Measure voltage between ECM/PCM connector terminals C18 and C28.
