Default EGR Valve code 32

just wanted to say if anyone is getting a code 32 egr valve and is on the fence about replacing it it is well worth it.

fortunately haven't had problem with my EGR on any of my Dakotas that have had them..... that is one thing I like about my 96 there is no EGR valve to give me that issue, I like that.... all the older vehicles I have ever had, that have had EGR valves, (before they put computers onto them that tracked that sort of thing) I blocked the EGR valve off, and did away with them..... if there was a workaround that wouldn't light that light on the dash (which would drive me nuts) I would do the same on my 92.....

That’s the weird thing the cel never came on. But when I did the key dance thing to check the codes I would always get 32. I’m
Definitely glad I changed it. Runs like a champ and definitely is helping with mileage

not all codes possible for the computer to retain in memory will trip the light. Calif. models had more "possible" codes and a bigger percentage that would pop the CEL. the newer vehicles get, the worse they get, in that respect.
