P245D-EGR COOLER BYPASS CONTROL CIRCUIT HIGH
 |
For a complete wiring diagram, refer to the Wiring Information.
Theory of Operation
The Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Cooler Bypass Valve Actuator is used to redirect the EGR gases around the cooler when the engine is under certain operating conditions. The EGR Cooler Bypass Valve Actuator is an electronic actuator that controls vacuum supply to the EGR Cooler. It is located underneath the Intake Manifold Assembly. The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) will light a MIL lamp after this monitor runs and fails in two consecutive drive cycles. The PCM will turn off the MIL lamp after the diagnostic passes in four consecutive drive cycles.
-
When Monitored:
With the ignition on.
-
Set Condition:
The PCM detects that the EGR Cooler Bypass Valve Actuator Control circuit voltage is above the maximum threshold for 0.5 second.

| EGR COOLER BYPASS VALVE |
| POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) |
Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 28 - DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure).
| 1. | Turn the ignition on. |
| 2. | With the scan tool, read DTCs. |
Is the DTC active?
Yes
- Go To 2
No
- Perform the INTERMITTENT DTC diagnostic procedure. (Refer to 28 - DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure).
2. CHECK THE (K670) EGR COOLER BYPASS VALVE ACTUATOR CONTROL CIRCUIT FOR A SHORT TO VOLTAGE
 |
| 1. | Turn the ignition off. |
| 2. | Disconnect the EGR Cooler Bypass Valve Actuator harness connector. |
| 3. | Disconnect the PCM C1 harness connector. |
| 4. | Turn the ignition on. |
| 5. | Measure the voltage of the (K670) EGR Cooler Bypass Valve Actuator Control circuit at the EGR Cooler Bypass Valve harness connector. |
Is there any voltage present?
Yes
- Repair the (K670) EGR Cooler Bypass Valve Actuator Control circuit for a short to voltage.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 28 - DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure).
No

3. EGR COOLER BYPASS VALVE ACTUATOR
| 1. | Turn the ignition off. |
| 2. | Reconnect the PCM C1 harness connector. |
| 3. | Connect a jumper between ground and the (K670) EGR Cooler Bypass Valve Actuator Control circuit at the EGR Cooler Bypass Valve Actuator harness connector. |
| 4. | Turn the ignition on. |
| 5. | With the scan tool, view DTCs. |
| NOTE: | The P245A-EGR COOLER BYPASS CONTROL CIRCUIT LOW DTC should set as active or pending with the jumper in place. |
Did the DTC set as described above?
Yes
- Replace the EGR Cooler Bypass Valve Actuator in accordance with the service information.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 28 - DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure).
No
- Go To 4
| 1. | Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Oxygen Sensor and the Powertrain Control Module. |
| 2. | Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires. |
| 3. | Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals. |
| 4. | Refer to any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply. |
Were any problems found?
Yes
- Repair as necessary.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 28 - DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure).
No
- Replace the Powertrain Control Module in accordance with the service information.
- Perform the PCM VERIFICATION TEST. (Refer to 28 - DTC-Based Diagnostics/MODULE, Powertrain Control (PCM) - Standard Procedure).
