Component Description
NGEC0342
The EGR temperature sensor detects temperature changes in the
EGR passageway. When the EGR valve opens, hot exhaust gases
flow, and the temperature in the passageway changes. The EGR
temperature sensor is a thermistor that modifies a voltage signal
sent from the ECM. This modified signal then returns to the ECM
as an input signal.As the temperature increases, EGR temperature
sensor resistance decreases. This sensor is not used to control the
engine system.
It is used only for the on board diagnosis.

P1401 A) An excessively low voltage from the EGR tempera-
ture sensor is sent to ECM even when engine cool-
ant temperature is low.
