    I happen to have an 03 LB7 and have had the darn P0404 code for several months now. I've replaced:
    1997254
    and
    94459951

    If anyone has anymore words of wisdom, I'd really appreciate it. Could I see that diagnostic chart?

    is the EGR supposed to move? This weekend I was looking at it and couldn't budge it...


    anyone?

    Have truck in dealer for noise after water pump replacement, belt off sounds goes away we think its the tensioner and are replacing that. Truck also had SES and tech says it has P0404 and P1404 wants to clean or replace the EGR valve. I am wondering if the EGR cooler needs cleaning, truck has 150k miles and usually runs light duty no heavy towing. Also wondering if EGR needs calibration.

    It may only need cleaning. Tough call as to whether it's worth the effort or just write the EGR out of the programming....

    That would be my best suggestion as there are without a doubt more headaches coming.

    Default P1404

    Can someone elaborate on what is happening when the 1404 code is thrown? Is the EGR not opening correctly? Also I know the EGR on this truck runs off the vacuum pump. Is there anything else that runs off the vacuum pump? If the pump were failing would it cause this code to be thrown?
