Abstract
A method for diagnosing the operating condition of an internal combustion engine exhaust gas recycling valve. The method acquires a measurement value of a reference position of the recycling valve at a predetermined time corresponding to a normally closed position of the valve, calculates the difference between the acquired reference value and a reference value acquired during a diagnostic cycle previously carried out, and compares the calculated difference with a threshold value for detecting opening of the valve.
