This is from the ALLDATA Repair website: (The shop burned me a copy, so don't ask for the link)

Step 5:
1) Disconnect the EGR harness connector.
2) Ignition "ON".
3) At the EGR valve, use a DVM to check the voltage at the 5 volt reference wire (RED) and ground (B).
-- Values 4-6V (mine was 5.0)

Step 6:
1) Disconnect the EGR harness connector.
2) Measure resistance between terminal B and D.
-- Values 5-5.5 KOhm (mine was 5.09K)

Step 10:
1) Disconnect the EGR harness connector.
2) Use an ohmmeter to measure between the pintle position pin (C) and the sensor ground pin (B) on the EGR valve.
-- Values 1 to 1.25 KOhm. (mine was 1.6K, causing P0405 code)

Ok I'm lost lol.

Does anyone know how long the egr tube is. I. Going to buy the egr snake and clean out the tube and they sell 3 different lengths 9,12,21 do you think that tube is more than 12 I inches long?
