You have two options to fix this error code. One, obviously, you can replace the EGR valve. If you do this, just reset the codes and you should be good to go. Two, you can remove the EGR valve and clean the carbon build up out of it. You can do this with throttle body cleaner and just make sure to let it dry out before you put it back on. You need to make sure that the valve (diaphram) is moving freely after you clean it. If it isn't, you are going to need to replace the EGR valve. Let me know if you have any further questions. Thanks for rating my response and for using FixYa!

Take the egr off and try cleaning it, get a small brass brush and scrub it with a spray can brake cleaner clean the ports in the manifold with a chop stick. Try that repost if you need more help.

Erroe code po405 on my car

Hello.
The error code PO405 = EGR, ( Exhaust Gas Recirculation ), sensor A circuit low input.

What the EGR does;
EGR = Exhaust Gas Recirculation system
Recycles small amounts of exhaust gas from exhaust system, 8 to 10 %, and mixes it with intake manifold air going into the combustion chambers. The addition of this inert, or non-combustable exhaust gas limits the peak combustion temperatures to a range that is below 2,500 degrees F, where the formation of nitrogen oxide, ( NOx ), is known to occur.

Here's a picture of an EGR valve to help you locate yoursem1cl_1.jpg
You may find that you just have a lose hose, or you may have a small vacuum leak.

I hope this helps you.

2001 Isuzu Trooper PO405 code

The throttle body is coated with a sludge resistant material. If you cleaned it all out you are actually hurting your engines performance, because the throttle body resists sludge which in turn protects your throttle plate and bore. You may want to check your egr vacuum regulator, for the cause of your problem.
