Pedestal EBPV delete question

For those of you who have the turbo pedestal with EBPV delete, I assume that the PCM will throw a code since there is no exhaust back pressure valve there, let alone wired into the system.

If there are code thrown in this example, what can be done to keep any codes from being thrown? I noticed that dfuser has a 7.3 exhaust back pressure valve terminator for sale. Would anyone recommend this or another option?

Thanks,
Drake

To eliminate the Code, use a 470ohm resistor in the plug or directly wired into the wiring. It is just a soft code though so you will not get SES light, like the AIH delete if you have done that one.

So what can be done about the code that gets thrown when the AIH is deleted?

Yes it can be done, and honestly I bet that's all that is inside of their terminators, just packages neatly. If you wanted the same you could purchase the connectors and enclose the resistor the same way. I personally cut off the connector and soldered in the resistor covered with heat shrink, and there is no evidence that there ever use to be a connector.

Same thing, wire a 470Ohm resistor in series off of the wire for the coil on the AIH and wire it to ground.

There was a user recently ScaldedDog IIRC that left it plugged in and capped off the oil ports inside the actual solenoid, I will see if I can find that thread.

I remember reading the thread, too, but it wasn't me.

If it is disconnected, you WILL get the P0476 code. Squirrels eat my wires and they were completely disconnected and I got this code. Patched the wires back together and the code went away. I also was getting the SES light on occasionally which never came back on once I fixed the wires.

You shouldn't get an SES for the P0476, at least I never have seen it, are you sure you weren't getting a code for something else?

Unique, I ran 3 months before "cleaning" up all my wiring and putting in resistors to eliminate the soft codes, but no SES light for having it disconnected for me?

One thing I just thought of though, I gutted mine in the summer so the PCM was never calling for the EBPV to close, that seems really likely.

BTW, I saw your need for Bulb #'s I'm not 100% sure on the seat belt warning, but most of the dash illumination is 194 bulbs, I think the indicators are #34's easy to pull to check for yourself, they are just held in with 1/4 turn holders.

what do you mean #34s? i cant believe not haveing a bulb in there sets a soft code even.. i think i used the socket for another light, wonder if the help section has a socket for the dash.
