Yesterday leaving the hosiptal valet parking I noticed my check engine light on for the first time. I pulled up the parking lot and read the codes with my Predator. I got EGR codes: P0401, P0406 and P046C. This isn't the first time these codes have shown up but the first time the light came on. I cleared them then when I got home I checked again and had P0406 and P046C but no light. I cleared them.

Do you thing something is happening with the stick or is the EGR bad?

I have the stick and blocker plate installed since about 1000 mi now have about 25,000.

Just realized that this may be in the wrong forum. Please move if it needs to be in electronics.

Sorry I have no answers. I am interested in seeing replies as I have the same codes, and an EGR valve on back order for a stock truck. Thinking I want B&F, as well as a predator......... don't want more codes

P046c is a bad ERG valve. Stick can't help that.

Thanks…just what I didn’t want to hear. What will or could happen if I don’t get the valve replaced? I soldered the connections on the stick and didn’t want to remove it if I didn’t have too.
