Not true. Both are independent of each other. Drive it up ramps or jack it up and put on jackstands. Examine the EGR tube with a "fine tooth comb".ok....I need help.....I've replaced the TSS anlong with the wiring for it...paid $285.......however i'm still pulling an 715 error code...now I also have an p402 ( EGR Flow Excessive at Idle) code.....the shop guy says the 402 is causing me to pull an 715 code.
my ? is: is this true?

As for the TSS, make sure wiring or connectors are fine. Reset PCM (pull fuse and reinstall in Power Distributio Box next to battery, post model year). Next time post year, engine and mileage.
Get a wire end connector from the junk yard which is good and splice that end. Your new TSS end-connector should be brand new and good. If not, then just snip off the connectors and splice the wires. Make sure they are taped well as water gets in that area easily.thanks....I've found out that the connectors are bad.....so how do I replace them?....since no shop in southeastern WI dose this type of work?
