ORIGINAL: Dj Spiel

I took out my cluter unit (dashboard) Found out that theres this Yellow & Brown wire that house a bulb. I noticed that Check Engine light had no bulb **and no metal surface around it to ground bulb) So i figure the yellow & brown wire must house chec engine light. Of course that bulb was blown.
Gotta love a car that has the CEL on so much that it burns out the bulb.

Ok, SO I change my Sensors & 2 of the 3-Codes come back.

P0150- o2 Sensor circuit (bank2 sensor 1)-------------->I CHANGE THIS SENSOR KEEP IN MIND. (This is Sensors Before Cat Converter)
P0401- EGR Flow Insufficent detected

That being said I think my EGR sensors are bad or EGR valve or both. I already have to return this O2 Sensor.

(Where can I buy BELOW SENSORS???) ANy help would be great.











Any chances of it just being EGR Valve & Not the sensors?

Or EGR VALVE & The EGR Sensors?

i doubt you can return the o2 sensor since its been installed, and the EGR flow insufficent flow detected is probably not the actuator but a carbon clogged EGR or passage for the EGR, best thing to do is take EGR off the engine and clean the passages in the intake manifold and then using a vacuum pump hook it up to the vacuum port on the EGR and opeate the valve using the pump to make sure its opening and closing and the passages to flow the exhaust gas are not clogged, as far as the o2 sensor code however, sounds like u got some wiring thats messed up in the circuit.

Well.... Hmmm.... It's likely Cause what are the chances of the the Sensor breaking withing 7-days.


I know the EGR... It's umm... Insufficent Gas Flow. So Perhaps it is clogged. Is it all all possible it's the Sensors for EGR or the EGR Valve?

The EGR System is fairly complecated... & has a bunch of parts to it.


This is kinda of important to me since I need to fix this by June 20th or I cannot drive (due to emissions)

Thanks for your help btw way. This is fairly complecated **hence** no post to my question (lol)

i have the same EGR check engine light as well. its kinda weird, sometimes my car picks up a lot faster. im thinking my gas flow is getting clogged somewhere, and sometimes it flows really nicely, and my car picks up nice and smoothly, and other times it feels like its getting blocked and my car doesnt pick up as smooth and torquey.
