EGR Temp Sensor Bypass for $1

The 100k ohm/.25 watt resistor trick for KAD/E

I've been throwing code 32 for a long ass time now, and I've finally gotten tired of running in limp mode, pig rich, bad gas mileage, and silly power. I read a few places about the EGR temp sensor bypass using a resistor, but I couldn't find a DIY anywhere for the SOHC. I'll spell it out for the DOHC guys too, as it only differs slightly with location of the sensor. Here you go!

This is a great, sneaky, way to get rid of the much-hated code 32, and never have to deal with the EGR temp sensor ever again. My ECU is now code free, and happy.

Items needed:
1 100k ohm/.25 watt resistor (5 pack from Radio Shack $.99)
Pliers
Cutting Utensil
Electric Tape

Time est:
10 minutes

Procedure:
Step One:
Get resistor(s).

Step Two:
Find the EGR temp sensor (both S13/S14 located between runners 2 and 3)

Step Three:
Find plug for EGR temp sensor (passenger side, to the rear of the oil filter for SOHC/ between upper and lower intake for DOHC)

Step Four:
Unplug and Snip (you can cut anywhere, I chose the side that goes to the sensor)

Step Five:
Gather these items (pliers, electric tape, sensor plug, and resistor)

Step Six:
Wire in the resistor (strip the wires from the plug, cut off the excess poles of the resistor, and twist with pliers)

Step Seven:
Tape it up

Step Eight:
Reinstall the plug, and tape the old wire to the new resistored loop (this way the smog people's will never know)
