EBPV problem

**dieseldan2005** · #1 (**permalink**) 01-06-2008, 08:29 AM

My truck had a code stored of P0470. Said my ebpv was malfunctioning. Anyone know how to fix this?

Did the truck have any symptoms, or just a light?

actually no light came on. I was just checking codes for fun and this popped up. I was noticing that the ebpv was cutting out before it normally does when the truck is in high idle warm up mode.

i found this other link on a google search EBP sensor

i hope this works, cause it sounds like the sensor could either be bad or the tube going to the sensor could be plugged. I am gonna go out and try to clean it.

i just went out and pull mine. Yep she is caked full of soot. Gonna clean it and put er back in. its spendy sensor so i'm not gonna replace it if i don't have too. i am gonna load some pics on here too. Did you mileage drop? Cause mine went from 16 to 13 in the last couple of weeks and i think thats why.
