I have a question please,
I have a 99 E150 and the check engine light came on, I connected the scanner and the code it gave me was the EGR valve then I replaced it and erased the light and droved it for a week before the light came back on again I connected the scanner again and the same EGR code shows again, what else could I do, maybe the EGR valve came defective?
could you please give me some advise
thank you!

You could have another bad EGR. However, check to makes sure all connections are tight, clean, and working properly. Also, make sure there is no carbon build up in the intake where the EGR mounts.
