Code 0514
DTC 0514 EGR Function (Open)
SYSTEM DESCRIPTION
This system cuts and controls vacuum applied to the EGR valve to suit engine operating conditions. This cut-and-control operation is accomplished through the ECM and the EGRC-solenoid valve. When the ECM detects any of the following conditions, current does not flow through the solenoid valve. This causes the intake manifold vacuum to be discharged into the atmosphere. The EGR valve remains closed.
- Low engine coolant temperature
- Engine starting
- High-speed engine operation
- Engine idling
- Excessively high engine coolant temperature
- Mass air flow sensor malfunction
COMPONENT DESCRIPTION
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Valve
The EGR valve controls the amount of exhaust gas routed to the intake manifold. Vacuum is applied to the EGR valve in response to EGRC-BPT valve operation. The vacuum controls the movement of a taper valve connected to the vacuum diaphragm in the EGR valve.
EGRC-solenoid Valve
The EGRC-solenoid valve responds to signals from the ECM. When the ECM sends an ON (ground) signal, the coil in the solenoid valve is energized. The vacuum signal (from the intake manifold collector) passes through the solenoid valve. The signal then reaches the EGR valve.
When the ECM sends an OFF signal, a plunger will then move to cut the vacuum signal.
On Board Diagnosis Logic
If the EGR temperature sensor detects EGR flow under the condition that does not call for EGR, a high-flow malfunction is diagnosed.
DTC Confirmation Procedure
NOTE: If "DTC Confirmation Procedure" has been previously conducted, always turn ignition switch "OFF" and wait at least 5 seconds before conducting the next test.
TESTING CONDITION:
- Always perform the test at a temperature of -10°C (14°F) or higher.
- Engine coolant temperature and EGR temperature must be verified in "DATA MONITOR" mode with CONSULT before starting DTC WORK SUPPORT test. If it is out of range below, the test cannot be conducted.
COOLAN TEMP/S: -10 to 40°C (14 to 104°F)
EGR TEMP SEN: Less than 4.8V
If the values are out of the ranges indicated above, park the vehicle in a cool place and allow the engine temperature to stabilize. Do not attempt to reduce the engine coolant temperature or EGR temperature with a fan or means other than ambient air. Doing so may produce an inaccurate diagnostic result.
With CONSULT
1. Turn ignition switch "ON".
2. Select "EGR SYSTEM P1402" of "EGR SYSTEM" in "DTC WORK SUPPORT" mode with CONSULT.
3. Touch"START".
4. Start engine and let it idle until "TESTING" on CONSULT screen is turned to "COMPLETED". (It will take 60 seconds or more.)
If "TESTING" is not displayed after 5 minutes, turn ignition "OFF" and cool the engine coolant temperature to the range of -10 to 40°C (14 to 104°F). Retry from step 1.
5. Make sure that "OK" is displayed afier touching "SELF-DIAG RESULTS". If "NG" is displayed, refer to "Diagnostic Procedure".
With GST
1. Turn ignition switch "ON" and select "MODE 1" with GST.
2. Check that engine coolant temperature is within the range of -10 to 40°C (14to 104°F).
3. Check that voltage between ECM terminal 63 (EGR temperature sensor signal) and ground is less than 4.8V.
4. Start engine and let it idle for at least 60 seconds.
5. Stop engine.
6. Perform from step 1 to 4.
7. Select "MODE 3" with GST.
No Tools
1. Turn ignition switch "ON".
2. Check the following voltages.
ECM terminal 59 (engine coolant temperature sensor signal) and ground: 1.5 - 4.4V
ECM terminal 63 (EGR temperature sensor signal) and ground: Less than 4.8V
3. Start engine and let it idle for at least 60 seconds.
4. Turn ignition switch "OFF", wait at least 5 seconds and then turn "ON".
5. Perform "Diagnostic Test Mode II (Self-diagnostic results)" with ECM.

Component Inspection
EGR VALVE
Apply vacuum to EGR vacuum port with a hand vacuum pump. EGR valve spring should lift.
If NG, replace EGR valve.
EGRC-BPT VALVE
1. Plug one of two ports of EGRC-BPT valve.
2. Vacuum from the other port and check for leakage while applying a pressure above 0.981 kPa (100 mmH2O, 3.94 inH2O) from under EGRC-BPT valve.
3. If a leakage is noted, replace the valve.
