Not getting the CEL, just the code. Tried blocking off the EGR with a plate, but it didn't help.

Yes. Also check for 5V between the orange wire and the black wire too with the key on. I think the TPS could be damaged, but I don't know for sure.

Did some work on the truck over the weekend.The info you guys gave really helped and I appreciate it. I replaced the TPS and that seemed to help alot still have a rough idle but not quite as bad. The check engine light went out on replacement of TPS. I pulled codes again and came up with a 32. I removed the EGR valve and checked operation worked it manually and it seem to work ok. I did a a voltage check and got about 5 volts going to valve.Resistance read about 3000 ohms and book said it should be about 5000 ohms. I dont thnk the valve is working properly..Thanks again

Thanks, Pat
This was probably the IAC.
