Diagnostic Instructions
    • Perform the Diagnostic System Check - Vehicle prior to using this diagnostic procedure.
    • Review Strategy Based Diagnosis for an overview of the diagnostic approach.
    •  Diagnostic Procedure Instructions provides an overview of each diagnostic category.

DTC Descriptor

DTC P2413 54: Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) System Performance

DTC P2413 61: Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) System Performance

Circuit/System Description

The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valve is controlled by the engine control module (ECM) through the EGR solenoid. A reference voltage is supplied to the EGR valve solenoid. The ECM controls the solenoid by grounding the control circuit.

Conditions for Running the DTC
    • The engine is running.
    • The DTCs run continuously when the above conditions are met.

Conditions for Setting the DTC

The ECM detects the EGR flow is not plausible or EGR valve stuck.

Action Taken When the DTC Sets

DTC P2413 54 is a Type A DTC.

DTC P2413 61 is a Type C DTC.

Conditions for Clearing the DTC

DTC P2413 54 is a Type A DTC.

DTC P2413 61 is a Type C DTC.

Circuit/System Verification
  1. Ignition ON, observe the DTC information with a scan tool. Verify that no other DTCs are set.
    2. ⇒If any other DTCs are set, refer to Control Module References for further diagnosis.
  2. DTCs P0401 or P0402 should not set.
  3. Command the EGR Valve from 0-100% with a scan tool. The EGR valve should respond to the scan tool commands.
    4. ⇒If the EGR solenoid does not respond to the scan tool commands, refer to DTC P0405 or P0406 for further diagnosis.
  4. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.

Circuit/System Testing
  1. Ignition OFF, inspect for the following:
    2. • Intake system/charge air hoses for leaks/restrictions
    • Exhaust system/turbo charger for leaks/restrictions
    • Air filter for restrictions
  2. Engine running at idle, command the EGR Valve ON with a scan tool. Verify that the scan tool MAF Sensor parameter is less than 16 kg/h
    3. ⇒If the parameter is greater than the specified value, replace the Q14 Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Valve.
  3. Command the EGR Valve OFF with a scan tool. Verify that the scan tool MAF Sensor parameter is greater than 25 kg/h
    4. ⇒If the parameter is less than the specified value, replace the Q14 Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Valve.

Repair Instructions

Perform the Diagnostic Repair Verification after completing the diagnostic procedure.
