I read the codes and got a code 31 the scanner said 1.(Cars only) EVAP or PFE circuit below minimum voltage 2. (Trucks only) EGR valve control sensor fault (ex. V8 models) 3.(Trucks only) EVAP control system below minimum voltage. So my question is what do I need to fix this problem on my car?

Hey ANTONY,

There is a EGR pressure sensor that goes out becasue of a particularly plugged catalytic converter. Check the bottom of the sensor to see if its burned out.

Here is a guide to replace the cat if that what the problem is.
