Scania EMO DTC 1071 EGR valve actuator

EMO EMO control unit · Scania

Code 1071 (decimal). Some diagnostic tools show it in hexadecimal as 042F.

In short

The EGR valve is not reaching its required position within the time stipulated.

Applies to: EMO2 (EMS)

What does Scania EMO fault code 1071 mean?

The EGR valve is not reaching its required position within the time stipulated.

What causes Scania DTC 1071?

- The EGR valve not being able to open due to a leaking compressed air line, upstream of the valve block or between it and the EGR valve. - The EGR actuator being stuck due to a mechanical problem. - Fault on valve block V107. - The EGR valve position sensor T124 not working.

How does the system react?

Can result in impaired driveability or fuel consumption, or increased emissions, with torque limitation as a result. Applies only to vehicles with Euro 5: The fault code cannot be cleared when it is active.

How to fix Scania EMO fault code 1071?

  1. Check the EGR valve actuator and check that the valve can move easily.
  2. Check that the EGR valve can open completely.
  3. Compare the signal from the position sensor with the actual position.
  4. Check the compressed air supply upstream of valve block V107 and between the valve block and EGR valve.
  5. Check the EGR valve position sensor T124 and the circuit’s harness-to-harness connectors and electrical cables.
  6. After renewing the control cylinder, EGR valve or position sensor T124, always run Resetting and calibrating of the EGR circuit.
