EGR Sensor C Circuit Range/Performance

EGR Sensor C Circuit Range/Performance: the signal is implausible or outside the valid range. Without valid EGR feedback the ECU disables exhaust gas recirculation and may set further EGR codes.

Affected components

  • Egr valve

Common causes

  • High likelihood: Sensor drift
  • Low likelihood: Sensor element aged beyond calibration window
  • Low likelihood: Sensor mounting loose - signal damping

Possible symptoms

  • Check engine light on
  • Pinging or knocking under load
  • Power loss and hesitation
  • Possible rough idle
  • Failed emissions inspection (NOx)

Diagnostic notes

  • The malfunction indicator lamp may illuminate
  • This code can affect emissions
