EGR Valve Position Circuit

Circuit Description:
The EGR valve position sensor outputs a voltage signal to the 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. The troubleshooting information for fault code 957 is the same as fault code 1228. Refer to fault
code 1228 for the fault code troubleshooting information.
