2. SPN 2791/FMI 11 – GHG14

Smart Remote Actuator 3 (EGR), Common Error

Table 1.

Check as follows:

1. Connect DiagnosticLink®.

2. Turn the ignition ON (key ON, engine OFF).

3. Check for multiple fault codes. Are fault codes SPN 2791/FMI 10, SPN 110/FMI 0 or SPN 110/FMI 2 present?
a. Yes; diagnose the other fault codes first.
b. No; Go to step 4.

4. Turn the ignition OFF.

5. Visually inspect the EGR system hardware, clamps, and connections. Are there any components that interfere with the travel of the pull rod?
a. Yes; install the components correctly, (replace any clamps that need readjustment), and perform the EGR Slow
Learn routine. Verify repair.
b. No; Go to step 6.

6. Verify the orientation of the pull rod. Is the “S” stamped on the pull rod facing toward EGR actuator and the “V” stamped on the pull rod facing toward the EGR valve?
a. Yes; Go to step 7.
b. No; remove the pull rod and install the pull rod correctly. Perform the EGR Slow Learn routine. Verify repair.

7. Move the pull rod toward the rear of the engine by hand. Does the pull rod move?
a. Yes; Go to step 8.
b. No; Go to step 11.

8. Turn ignition ON (key ON, engine OFF).

9. Monitor the EGR actuator when the ignition in turned on. Does the EGR actuator move when the ignition is first turned on?
a. Yes; Go to step 10.
b. No; replace the EGR actuator. Refer to the following section:
For DD13, Refer to section “Removal of the DD13 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve Actuator”.
For a DD15TC or DD16 equipped with a Sonceboz actuator, Refer to section “Removal of the DD15 and DD16
Sonceboz® Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve Actuator”.

For a DD15AT, Refer to section “Removal of the GHG14 DD15 AT Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve Actuator
“.

10. Check the Motor Control Module (MCM) software level. Is the MCM software level 4.7.0.00 ZGS 002 or higher?
a. Yes; Go to step 11.
b. No; update the MCM software using the latest server information. Perform the repair verification. If the fault
returns, Go to step 11.

11. Turn the ignition off.

12. Disconnect and inspect the pull rod from the EGR actuator and the EGR valve. Are the bearings or inserts (1) in the pull rod missing ?

a. Yes; replace the pull rod. Verify repair.
b. No; Go to step 13.

13. Rotate the bearings in the pull rod in the normal direction of movement when installed. Do the bearings move?

14.a. Yes; Go to step 14.
b. No; replace the pull rod. Verify repair.
Move the EGR valve back and forth by hand. Does the EGR valve move from end stop to end stop?
a.b.Yes; Go to step 15.
No; replace the EGR valve. Refer to the following section:
For the DD13, Refer to section “Removal of the Exhaust Manifold”.
For the DD15AT, Refer to section “Removal of the GHG14 DD15 AT Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve/Hot
Pipe”.
For the DD15TC and the DD16, Refer to section “Removal of the DD15 and DD16 Exhaust Gas Recirculation
Valve”.

15. Install the EGR valve actuator pull rod.

16. Use DiagnosticLink ® to perform the EGR Slow Learn routine. Does fault code SPN 2791/FMI 11 become active?
a. Yes; replace the EGR actuator. Refer to the following section:
For DD13, Refer to section “Removal of the DD13 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve Actuator”.
For a DD15TC or DD16 equipped with a Sonceboz actuator, Refer to section “Removal of the DD15 and DD16
Sonceboz® Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve Actuator”.
For a DD15AT, Refer to section “Removal of the GHG14 DD15 AT Exhaust Gas Recirculation Valve Actuator
“.
b. No; the concern was corrected by performing the EGR Slow Learn routine. No further diagnostics or repairs are needed. Release the vehicle to the customer.
