What tells EGR valve to operate?

RE: What tells EGR valve to operate?
Well I was looking at all data and if you have the 2.0 I would really look into the manifold differential pressure sensor. Ford has something similar to that and its called a dpfe sensor. Also on fords I see a lot of p0401 and as long as the egr passage is clean, I'll replace the dpfe sensor and that usually fixes the dtc.

Sorry for the delay. I looked into a troubleshooting manual and wound up at the same place. The manifold pressure differerntial sensor. I'm going to locate this sensor and try to see if it might be dirty or something.

if you were to trigger the solenoid to open the egr you can check the fluctuation voltage of the mdp. if the mdp was the problem, why would it not throw a mdp code too?

There's a few troubleshooting tips for the MDP to check voltage at the back of the plug. If it doesn't change when the engine is revved, then it might be defective. I will eliminate this first.
Then on to the ECT sensor.

Sorry. The trade had nothing to do with the CEL. It was opportunity knocks. 7,000 dollars off on the selling price of the truck. I couldn't resist. I've always wanted a 4WD Chevy. I was really interested in finding the problem. As you can tell, I'm persistant if not too smart.
Thanks for the help, regardless. Good luck to you all in the future. See you at the Chevy forum.
