EGR Valve: Service and Repair
Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) Valve - Removal
3.5L
WARNING: The normal operating temperature of the exhaust gas recirculate (EGR) valve and tube is very high. Therefore, never work
around or attempt to service any engine component until it is completely cooled.
NOTE: It is very important to disconnect the battery due to the addresses (cells) within the engine controller that store learned values related
to powertrain operation. A malfunctioning EGR system can cause bad values to be stored in these cells that can cause an erroneous
fault to occur after the system is repaired. Disconnecting the battery for at least two minutes will remove all power from the controller
and reset these cells to normal default values.
1. Use a scan tool to record any Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs).
2. Disconnect and isolate the negative battery cable.
3. Remove and relocate the purge solenoid from its mounting bracket.
4. Unlock and disconnect the electrical connector from the EGR valve.
