Ok. I got a 1997 Neon DOHC and i had to put on a new EGR valve because it wouldnt stay running......well that took the service engine soon light off.....but now its back on and the car will only stay running when it get a little warm. can anyone help?? ask if you have ?'s

 

Did you replace the transducer as well with the EGR?

 

umm no i didnt.

 

Well that could be the problem. It's usually the culprit of the Code 32 problem.

 

Would that make it that something has to get warmed up before it will stay running?

 

When the PCM energizes the solenoid, vacuum does not reach the transducer. Vacuum flows to the transducer when the PCM de-energizes the solenoid.
When exhaust system back-pressure becomes high enough, it fully closes a bleed valve in the transducer. When the PCM de-energizes the solenoid and
back-pressure closes the transducer bleed valve, vacuum flows through the transducer to operate the EGR valve. De-energizing the solenoid, but not fully closing the transducer bleed hole (because of low back-pressure), varies the strength of vacuum applied to the EGR valve. Varying the strength of the vacuum changes
the amount of EGR supplied to the engine. This provides the correct amount of exhaust gas recirculation for different operating conditions.

This system does not allow EGR at idle.

 

is there any other name for the transducer (if that is what i need) i call the local auto parts store and they said they dont know what that is!!!!

 

It connects to the EGR valve. It's round and black and should come with a new EGR valve.
