EGR Vacuum Regulator Solenoid Valve Check

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2005 Dodge Stratus and 2005 Chrysler Sebring. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Disconnect the vacuum hose from the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid valve.
    NOTE: When disconnecting the vacuum hose, always make sure that it can be reconnected at its original position.
  2. Disconnect the harness connector.
  3. Connect a hand vacuum pump to nipple (A) of the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid valve. (Refer to Fig 1.)
  4. As described in the table below, check airtightness by applying a vacuum with voltage applied directly from the battery to the EGR vacuum regulator solenoid valve and without applying voltage.
