Code 32

32 - EGR malfunction (California models)

Man what is the deal, how do I go about fixing this. If I remove teh egr crap and put in the plug and block off plate should this code go away?

This is the only problem with my car other then that lame tin can rattle and I would love to get rid of the light on teh dash besides just removing the bulb.

Any help would be great.

seeing that you're in ca, you'll want that EGR there to register your car. Pull the EGR and give it a cleaning. I'm talkin about all the tubes and the egr itself. Replace the vac hoses while you're at it. They're old and will probably give you a bunch of crap soon enough if you haven't already, besides that they're cheap.

I just passed emissions and car is good and registered. Now I want to give rid of that light.

I am about to clean my EGR valve with carb cleaner.....how much would it cost to replace the vac hoses?

I replaced my hoses already to see if that would help with my problem, which it didn't. They set me back just about 6 bucks to replace about 5 feet of hoses.

When you remove the EGR ****, you have an EGR Temperature sensor in your intake manifold between runners 2 and 3. It looks like a nut with a wire coming out of it. There is a connector in your harness that has 2 wires related to that sensor.

If you put a 1/4 watt, 100k ohm resistor in the path of those wires (instead of the sensor), it fixes the code. The resistor should cost around 25 cents.

I have this same problem, but mine is much stranger... I have a non-california wiring setup, but my ECU fried and I swapped in a California ECU. So now it throws the code and I cannot get to that wiring harness because it does not exist..

So i have to put my resistor ON THE ECU. Or at least in the pins of the main wiring harness-to-ecu. Haven't done it yet, but i'm sure it'll work out fine when I do.
