ABSTRACT:
A failure diagnosis device of an exhaust gas recirculation control device which comprises a recirculation pipe for recirculating the exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine to an intake air pipe; a recirculation valve for controlling a flow quantity of the exhaust gas flowing in the recirculation pipe; a recirculation valve passage area controlling means for controlling a passage area of the recirculation valve; a running condition detecting means for detecting a running condition of the internal combustion engine; a first detected value memorizing means for memorizing a first detected value which is detected by the running condition detecting means when the passage area of the recirculation valve is in a first state of being wide, by the recirculation valve passage area controlling means; a second detected value memorizing means for memorizing a second detected value which is detected by the running condition detecting means when the passage are of the recirculation valve is in a second state of being zero, by the recirculation valve passage area controlling means; a calculating and correcting means for calculating a difference value between the first detected value and the second detected value and for correcting the difference value based on on of the first and the second detected values; a determining means for determining whether the corrected value is in a predetermined range; and an alarming means for alarming when the determining means determines that the corrected value is out of the predetermined range.
