DESCRIPTION
The EGR system recirculates exhaust gases, in order to suit every driving condition. The recirculated gas mingles with intake air, therefore the EGR system can slow combustion speed and keep the combustion temperature down. This helps reduce NOx emission.
In order to increase EGR circulation efficiency, the ECM adjusts the lift amount of the electric EGR control valve and throttle valve angle.
| DTC No. | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| P2BAC | Target and actual positions of the electric EGR control valve are different (1 trip detection logic) |
|
MONITOR DESCRIPTION
When the target and actual positions of the electric EGR control valve are different, the ECM interprets this as a malfunction of the electric EGR control valve and illuminates the MIL.

INSPECTION PROCEDURE
Note
After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration Click here and initialization Click here.
Tech Tips
When this DTC is stored the vehicle enters fail-safe mode, in which the MIL blinks and the ECM measures elapsed time until an idle signal has been input or engine speed is below 200 rpm after 50 hours, after which engine output is limited to 75%.
Read freeze frame data using an intelligent tester. Freeze frame data record the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, if the air-fuel ratio was lean or rich, and other data, from the time the malfunction occurred.
PROCEDURE
CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P2BAC)
Connect an intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the tester ON.
Select the following menu items: Powertrain / Engine / DTC.
Read DTCs.

Tech Tips
If any DTCs other than P2BAC are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.

PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING INTELLIGENT TESTER (CONTROL THE EGR SYSTEM)
Turn the ignition switch off and wait for 60 seconds.
Connect an intelligent tester to the DLC3.
Start the engine and turn the tester ON.
Warm up the engine until the engine coolant temperature reaches 80°C (176°F).
Select the following menu items: Powertrain / Engine / Active Test / Control the EGR System / Data List / MAF.
Read the MAF value when the E-VRV for EGR is turned from OFF to ON using the Active Test function.

Note
In the table below, the values listed under "MAF Value" are reference values. Do not depend solely on these reference values when deciding whether a part is faulty or not.
| EGR Valve Status | Condition | MAF Value |
|---|---|---|
| Open (67%) | Atmosphere pressure: 101 kPa Intake air temperature: 30°C Engine coolant temperature: 88°C |
4.5 to 5.0 g/sec |
| Close (0%) | 18.3 to 18.9 g/sec |
