DTC 32 - EGR Circuit Error - "G" Series: Notes

PCM operates the normally-opened solenoid to control the EGR valve. By providing a ground path, the PCM energizes the solenoid allowing vacuum to pass to the EGR valve. During normal operation, the PCM compares EGR duty cycle signal with EGR control pressure/BARO signal and makes adjustments in duty cycle accordingly. If there is a difference in the PCM command and what is sensed by the EGR control pressure/BARO sensor, PCM makes minor adjustments to correct. DTC 32 will set when:

RPM is greater than 506.
No DTC 31 0r 33 is stored.
50 kPa difference between desired EGR and EGR pressure for 25.5 seconds.

PCM will default to shut down the EGR.

NOTE: Test numbers refer to numbers on diagnostic chart.

This step determines if DTC 32 is the result of a hard failure or an intermittent condition.
This step checks vacuum at EGR vent solenoid.
This step checks the EGR valve.
