Component |
Description |
|
|
K20 Engine Control Module |
The control module contains a microprocessor used to process input data to control outputs. The control module controls a series of actuators to ensure optimal engine performance. The control module does this by reading values from a variety of sensors, interprets the data and adjusts the engine actuators accordingly. |
|
|
M122 Exhaust Pressure Control Valve Actuator |
The assembly has several functions: |
|
| Component |
Description |
|
The component is actuated by a bidirectional DC motor. The component contains a contactless inductive position sensor. A fixed transmitter coil excites a movable rotor, which in turn induces a current in a fixed receiver coil. The current varies with the angle of the rotor. Electronics inside the sensor convert the current into digital data which is transmitted via a serial data circuit to the control module. |

Circuit/System Verification
- Ignition » On / Vehicle » In Service Mode
- Verify DTC P048D, P048E, U0650 is not set.
⇒ If any DTC is set
Refer to: DTC P048D, P048E, or U0650
⇓ If none of the DTCs are set
- Perform the scan tool control function: Exhaust Pressure Regulator Valve Position » Command
the component to the minimum position/speed & Release Control
Verify the scan tool parameter:
Exhaust Pressure Regulator Valve Control Circuit High Test Status = Not Run or Okay
Exhaust Pressure Regulator Valve Control Circuit Low Test Status = Not Run or Okay
Exhaust Pressure Regulator Valve Control Circuit Open Test Status = Not Run or Okay
Exhaust Pressure Regulator Valve Control Circuit Shorted Test Status = Not Run or Okay
⇒ If not the specified state
Refer to: Circuit/System Testing
⇓ If the specified state
- Engine » Idling — At normal operating temperature
- Perform the scan tool control function: Exhaust Pressure Regulator Valve Position » Command
the component to the minimum position/speed
Verify the scan tool parameter: Exhaust Pressure Regulator Valve Position = The parameter
value should change.
⇒ If the parameter value does not change
Refer to: Circuit/System Testing
⇓ If the parameter value changes
- Perform the scan tool control function: Exhaust Pressure Regulator Valve Position » Command
the component to the minimum position/speed
Verify the scan tool parameter: Exhaust Pressure Regulator Valve Position = The parameter
value should not change
– Perform the action while monitoring the parameter:
Wiggle the harness and connector: K20 Engine Control Module
Wiggle the harness and connector: M122 Exhaust Pressure Control Valve Actuator
⇒ If the parameter value changes
Repair as necessary » Wiring / Terminal(s) / Electrical Connector(s)
