Found location EGR Solenoid!!

Featured Replies

Hi all again!!

Thanks for ALL the posts about our friend the EGR Solenoid! I scoured my Chiltons repair manual! I found a real break down of the Solenoid! It's part #7! It's for the SPFI 1.8 ltr engine. I hope you all can see it!

 

You have to cut & paste to see PIX! This server won't allow "Hot-Linking"!

 

Many thanks!! SubeeTEd

Just remember, you can substitute a good purge control solenoid (the one that looks the same as the EGR solenoid, just to the left as you look under the hood) if you cannot find a good EGR solenoid. Just splice the connector from the old EGR solenoid onto your good purge solenoid.

 

BTW, here's a link to the factory test procedure for testing EGR solenoids - it's on page 122 of the PDF.

And the entire test procedure for a code 34 is on page 71 of the second section of the PDF.

My suggestion would be to run off these PDF's and put them in a binder. They will be so much more help to you than your Chilton on fixing engine and electrical problems. Bummer Jon Finley only put these sections on the web - of course, he has airplanes so he doesn't care about the rest of the systems!
