- Check for vacuum leaks to A/C system and EGR valve. Check for leaks at EGR valve transfer pipe and intake manifold. Check air induction system for leaks at elbow and hoses. Check PCV and EVAP systems for leaks, including dipstick. Repair or replace as necessary.
DTC 29: Electronic Control Module
Replace faulty Electronic Control Module (ECM).
DTC 33: Leaking Fuel Injector
Information is not available from manufacturer.
DTC 34: Leaking Fuel Injector
Information is not available from manufacturer.
DTC 37: EGR Solenoid Valve
- Ensure EGR control solenoid is properly connected. Check continuity of wiring harness between ECM and EGR control solenoid. Repair or replace as necessary.
- Ensure EGR control solenoid resistance is approximately 40 ohms. Apply parking brake and service brakes. Ensure ECM is grounding EGR control solenoid Green/Red wire with engine at 1200 RPM (engine at normal operating temperature). Replace ECM if it is not grounding EGR control solenoid.
DTC 39: EGR Function
- With engine at normal operating temperature and transmission in Neutral, lift EGR valve diaphragm. Engine should run rough and RPM should decrease. If engine does not run rough, check EGR transfer pipe, intake manifold, and EGR valve for blockage.
- If engine runs rough, apply parking brake and service brakes. With engine hot, ensure vacuum signal to EGR valve is present at 1200 RPM. If vacuum signal is not present, ensure ECM is grounding EGR control solenoid Green/Red wire or check vacuum hose routing.
- If vacuum signal is present, ensure EGR valve functions properly when vacuum is applied. Replace EGR valve if necessary. Ensure ECM is receiving EGR temperature sensor signal. See the appropriate «SENSOR RANGE CHARTS»(ref-17073) article in this section. Check continuity of wiring harness between ECM and EGR temperature sensor. Repair or replace as necessary.
DTC 44: Heated Oxygen Sensor
- Ensure heated oxygen sensor is properly connected. Check continuity of wiring harness between ECM, fuel pump/oxygen sensor heater relay, and heated oxygen sensor.
- Ensure heated oxygen sensor is receiving 12 volts from fuel pump/oxygen sensor heater relay. Check heated oxygen sensor ground circuit. Ensure tip of heated oxygen sensor is not damaged. Repair or replace as necessary.
DTC 46 & 47: Idle Air Control Valve
Check ECM main relay power input, ignition switch power input, and ECM battery power input circuits to ECM small signal ground circuit. See the PIN VOLTAGE CHART S article in this section. See below. Voltage input readings should be within 200 millivolts of each other. If necessary, repair wiring harness. Check for faulty ECM.

Check air injection pump relay output circuit at pump relay. See the appropriate PIN VOLTAGE CHART S article in this section. See below. If necessary, repair wiring harness or replace faulty air injection pump relay. Check for faulty ECM. For XJ6: «PIN VOLTAGE CHARTS»(ref-17074) For XJS: «PIN VOLTAGE CHARTS»(ref-17108)
