EGR delete and check engine light hack

[dereksimenac]

Could have put a resistor in the circuit at the PCM

[JCnordic]

So why not connect a small light in the enginebay where the solenoid wires ?

[CatboxWA]

For a stubborn check light, locate the lamps positive wire lead and sever it before the cluster gang connector . Next locate the Alt./ Gen./ battery lamp positive lead and tag the positive wire from the check lamp to it in parallel . Now the check engine lamp will operate like it should when no codes are present ( on with ignition, off when running ) .

I always thought about trying to reroute my EGR tube to the exhaust before the O2 sensors in a low pressure area, seeing if that would work.

That beast is still moving? You’re a mechanical genius brother

[randyization]

doesnt the computer look for a difference in egr gas at the 02 sensor when it runs its periodic tests?

[forgottenknowledge]

So the test light acts as a resistor. Nice. You can also do this on pesky oil level sensors that nobody needs.

[Karlwallin]

a resister would work as well instead of the test light no?

[khills]

Why not just leave the egr valve plugged in and zip tie it to a bracket or something?

[stephenhans]

Does it come on at full throttle? Thanks

[qxwlumk]

Is it possible to block off the egr port and leave the electric plug connected to a good egr valve laying off to the side to fool the computer?

Do you think this is possible on obd 2 from 1996?

Dudes engine is in his trans tunnel 😭😭

Thanks for the hack! This opens doors to so many possibilities now 🫠💯💯💯
