Default 01 Monte Carlo SS P0403B , P0404B

I just replaced the EGR Value due to it going bad, I then got these codes


P0403B - Exhaust Gas recirculation Solenoid Circuit

and

P0404B - Exhaust gas recirculation open position performance.

already tried cleaning EGR port with sea foam deep creep no fix. I unhooked the PCM to check for any damage on the harnesses or the board itself nothing looked burnt or damaged/ bent



2001 Monte Carlo SS 3.8 L V6 LE

Any thoughts as to fixing ? I'm stumped.

thanks,


Vic

Bad EGR I'm guessing. I have a few lying around I could sell you if you want to give that a shot.

So you replaced the EGR, and now you're getting the codes? If so, unplug the battery and let the PCM reset, then see if the codes come back up.

I replaced the EGR Value, not the hole EGR . I have cleared the codes with a scanner before and they came right back on its a hard fault
