So I decided to try cleaning first. I removed the egr and scraped,scrubbed,soaked all the carbon crud that I could get off/out.I reconnected the battery which I thought would also reset the check engine light,but it didn't. The check engine light is still on. I also sprayed carb cleaner over all the vacuum hoses no change in engine rpms. Okay sorry for the long rant. Any advice? thanks Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Apr 2, 2011, 3:02 PM Post #2 of 4 (1949 views) Re: Check engine/Egr valve Sign In What was the exact code number? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. zmame Veteran / Moderator Apr 2, 2011, 3:04 PM Post #3 of 4 (1946 views) Re: Check engine/Egr valve Sign In You have a hard code for somthing.. you need to get the code pulled before we can help you any further please post the code too..
