Click to expand...

Circuit failure.. Hmm.. That would indicate the solenoids are bad or not plugged in. Check the solenoids -- they are located as a pair on the back side of the passenger shock tower under the EGR solenoid.

Make sure they're plugged in.. If they are then pull them out and inspect them. Make sure there are no cracks.. If you throw them on an ohmmeter they should read about 100-150 ohms.

If they are out of spec, you should replace them.
