Many thanks to all who have posted info on the EGR solenoid. The info has allowed me to disassemble it, clean up the carnage, add a little solder and IT WORKS!

It was pretty easy to find the posts. Rather than using the forum search, I Googled "Fiero egr solenoid" and came up with several posts on this forum, lots of info and photos.

Once I finish up the rehab on my '87 GT, I will consider it.

Would you road test them to confirm the repair? That's how I've tested ones that I've sold.

That's the only way I would know how to test, only takes a couple minutes to swap them out.

The factory setup had a 'clean air' hose that ran from the front of the solenoid over to the air cleaner. Many times that hose is lost or broken and the car runs just fine, but water could easily get into the solenoid if the hose is missing.

The hose is connected as it should be, I'll see what happens next time I drive.

Along with the repair, did you replace the o-rings inside of it?

Hmm. Had you pulled the battery to clear the previously set code(s)?

Yes. Driving daily, still no 32 as yet. Calling for rain next couple of days, will see what happens.
