2008 UK Outlander ETV fuse blowing (code P0487)
2008 UK Outlander ETV fuse blowing (code P0487)
Hi everyone, I need a little help trouble shooting the above fault. On every other start I get the engine orange warning light illuminating. The code is P0487 Exhaust Gas Recirculation Throttle Control Circuit A/Open. I can clear the fault light with my OBDII scanner but after the second engine start the fault light returns. I have found that the 15amp fuse in the engine fuse box (fuse position 8 ETV) also blows on every second start. Can anyone point me in the right direction to resolve this issue. Thanks |

Hello all, I had the same problem, except I had a P00488 code as well as the P00487. I have replaced both the EGR valve and the throttle body(AKA Exhaust Throttle Valve). I also cleaned all the wiring plugs.
I then replaced the ETV fuse. This cured the EML coming so far. I've driven it for a week, lots of starts. I still have the P00487 code coming up and the vehicle will not rev cleanly past 2500rpm under load. I'm thinking electric so I have it booked in at Mitsubishi for a diagnostic run. My vehicle is an Outlander Warrior DI-D 2007. I hope this helps. Replacing the two parts mentioned above isn't too difficult. Just remove the engine cover brackets this helps with space. A short T30 key also helps. While I had the parts out I changed the oil filter and oil as I'd run two doses of EGR cleaner through it. |
