Diagnostic help
Read value:
Target EGR Ratio,
EGR Ratio
The EGR function is switched off after 1 minute of idling (EGR valve closed). As soon as the accelerator pedal is touched, EGR control is reactivated.

Menu "Read values"
for more information.
Checking the wiring harness
Jiggle the wiring harness at several points and in different directions to detect intermittent breaks and short circuits. Observe the multimeter, diagnostic tool or test lamp during the check.
