EGR Plug-in Solenoid Disable????

Hey Everyone!

First of all I just want to say hi to all of you that help out with our trucks' issues. Thank you, thank you & thank you.

Need help with something.

The EGR buggered up in the Black Pearl AGAIN. It seems the EGR valve seat warps and/or the valve stem bends as I can see daylight between the valve and valve seat after a thorough cleaning, which means she's probably losing boost pressure, fuel econony and power (especially power). This is my third EGR and I don't think I'm alone here on this, so I came up with what might be one hell of a great idea that can help alot of us facing this similar issue, but first I need a little help. There are five wires from the wiring harness that plug into the EGR valve.

Can anyone explain to me where the five terminals go on the wiring harness connection to the EGR valve and what the five terminals do?

The object is to disable the electro-mechanical portion of the valve, and still have the remaining parts of the valve actuator function normally.

Don't know if I'm making sense, on the right track or in left feild.

Thanks!

If you do a search on this you will find a ton of info. Some say just unplug it and you'll be fine, others have said that the fan will not come on if this module is disconnected. Seems that it interacts with the engine controller in more than one way.
