Code P1404 Acura Description

The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) determines that the Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) valve is stuck open if the actual EGR position and the learned closed EGR position vary by more than a predetermined value. The PCM tests for a stuck valve when the desired EGR position is at 0%. The PCM commands the EGR valve to 100% during certain driving conditions in order to clear a possible restriction from the EGR valve if the PCM determines that the valve is stuck open. The PCM retests for a stuck valve when the desired EGR position returns to 0%. A failure timer increments if the stuck EGR valve condition is still present. This Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) sets when the timer reaches a predetermined value.
