hello Eli, excellent way to approach an EGR problem and any code associated with it and as you mentioned to know the circuit designed if it is ground or power control side is very important in checking any sensor or solenoid. thanks for all your videos they contain good info as I, watch and learn cheers my friend.

By the looks of your voltage readings, I see that your sensor ground is not within specs, should be less than 0.1V. Looks like you have a harness issue on pin 3 or maybe pcm problem. The next step would be to check the voltage at the pcm and see if you get the same voltage reading of 3.35V

Make sure your your harness connector doesn't have any spread female pins. Maybe, the characteristics of the New egr valve are not compatible. Its hard to say, without proper diagnostic testing.

How can u tell if it’s the egr valve connector housing or the wiring harness itself that is faulty?
@EliTheOBDTech
5 жыл бұрын
By doing a wiggle test on the harness itself while watching the voltage meter for any glitches. Sometimes the female connectors tend to spread open to the point where it does not make a proper connection with the male connector. Always check power and ground on any circuit.

@@johnchapman3225 First thing I would do, check power and ground going to the egr valve. If all checks all good, back probe the signal wire and do a wiggle test to check for any signal dropouts. That will tell you that you may have a spreaded signal terminal or faulty egr sensor. You can visually check the harness connector and compare for any spread terminals.
