P0407

Exhaust Gas Recirculation Sensor B Circuit Low

DTC P0407, sometimes indicated as P040700 is an OBD diagnostic trouble code indicating a generic fault with the vehicle powertrain (i.e. engine and gearbox). This code identifies an error with the auxiliary emissions system causing exhaust gas recirculation sensor b circuit low.

The exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) sensor measures the amount of exhaust gas recirculated into the engine. The P0407 code means that the sensor detected a low exhaust gas recirculation rate.
This code can be caused by a defective EGR sensor, a defective EGR valve, or a plugged EGR valve or exhaust pipe.
If the P0407 code is caused by a defective EGR sensor, the sensor will need to be replaced.
If the P0407 code is caused by a defective EGR valve, the valve will need to be replaced.
If the P0407 code is caused by a plugged EGR valve or exhaust pipe, the obstruction will need to be cleared.
