Cummins ISB4.5 CM2150 Fault Code: 2272 PID: 27 SPN: 27 FMI: 4 EGR Valve Position Circuit – Voltage Below Normal or Shorted to Low Source.

Circuit Description
The engine control module (ECM) uses the EGR valve position sensor to determine whether or not the valve is meeting the commanded position. The ECM supplies 5 volts to the EGR valve position signal circuit, and the EGR valve position sensor outputs a voltage signal to the ECM based on the valve position. The ECM converts this signal into a percentage value, 0 to 100, indicating valve position. A fully-opened valve is equivalent to 100 percent.

Component Location
The EGR valve position sensor is internal to the EGR valve assembly and can not be serviced separately.

Conditions for Running the Diagnostics
This diagnostic runs continuously when the keyswitch is in the ON position or when the engine is operating.

Conditions for Setting the Fault Codes
The ECM detects that the EGR valve position sensor signal voltage is less than a calibratible value.

Action Taken When the Fault Code is Active
-The ECM illuminates the amber CHECK ENGINE light and/or the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) immediately when the diagnostic runs and fails.
-The EGR valve operation will be disabled.

Conditions for Clearing the Fault Code
-To validate the repair, perform a key cycle, and leave the key in the on position for 1 minute. The EGR valve will perform an auto-zero immediately after key-on.
-The ECM will turn off the amber CHECK ENGINE light immediately after the diagnostic runs and passes.
-The ECM will turn off the MIL after three consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic runs and passes.
-This fault code and MIL can also be cleared with INSITE™ electronic service tool.

Possible Causes
-SIGNAL circuit open or shorted to ground
-SUPPLY circuit open or shorted to ground
-Sensor shorted to ground.

NOTE: Do not supply 12-V to the EGR valve position sensor, or short the EGR valve motor wires to the EGR valve position sensor. The EGR valve position sensor is rated at 5-V, and sensor damage can occur.
