Code result

P2382

EGR Sensor D Circuit Low

Moderate severity

What it means

Same as P2381 but with the signal voltage below the plausible lower limit - typically the signal line shorted to ground or an internal sensor short.

Is it safe to drive?

Use caution

The vehicle is usually drivable for short distances, but the problem can worsen or affect emissions. Diagnose and repair as soon as practical.

Most likely causes

  • Signal line shorted to ground

    high

    One of the most commonly reported causes for this code — check this first.

  • Sensor internal short

    medium

    A plausible cause — test and verify before replacing parts.

  • Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance

    low

    Less common, but worth ruling out after the more likely causes.
