CM850 Electronic Control System – FAULT CODE 1228

EGR Valve Position – Data Erratic, Intermittent, or Incorrect


Overview

EGR Valve Position – Data Erratic, Intermittent, or Incorrect

CODE REASON EFFECT
Fault Code: 1228
PID: P27
SPN: 27
FMI: 2/2
LAMP: Amber
SRT: 

EGR Valve Position – Data erratic, intermittent, or incorrect. Intermittent EGR position information is being received by the electronic control module (ECM).

Possible low power. EGR valve will be closed.

EGR Valve Position Sensor Circuit
SMALL | MEDIUM | LARGE

Circuit Description

The EGR valve position sensor outputs a voltage signal to the electronic control module (ECM). The ECM converts this signal into a percentage value, 0 to 100 percent, indicating EGR valve position. A fully open valve is equivalent to 100 percent.

Component Location

The EGR valve position sensor is located on the EGR valve assembly. Refer to Procedure 100-002 for a detailed component location view.

Shop Talk

This fault code is caused by an internal failure of the EGR valve position sensor. This failure causes erratic readings of EGR valve position.

Refer to Troubleshooting Fault Code t05-1228
