My EGR temp switch is bad. Rather than closing after the egr heats up, it is closed (or grounded) ALL THE TIME. Thus, I get a code 32. I can't find one any place...even the large Vette Sites? It is simply a small sensor that screws into the EGR valve (beneath the plenum) and then goes to the ECM.
Is there any other sensor that "closes permanently" after the engine heats up that I could splice in to? That is the final problem that I am having before re-registering my '85 after a few years off the road. I'm in Ca. so it has to pass smog! I thought of putting in a toggle switch so I could just flip it after the engine warms up so the EGR system will work properly, but I hate to mickey-mouse it to that point!.
The original temp switch center sensor will "screw-in", but it either remains open or closed depending how far I turn it in. It was originally set and then some sort of glue applied to keep it from screwing in or out.
Thanx for any help!
