That's a good suggestion Squeeto. TurboTim did the component selection, I wonder if he did any testing to determine where that open circuit detection happened, and what is a good value to save power while still giving some margin to where the CEL for a bad EGR valve gets set.

Well Parts are on order, and with over 200 segr's out there basically using Tim's original circuit design for now were going to stick with what has been proven in the field. I expect the pcb's in 10 days and the other parts before then. I should have kits ready to ship in 2- 3 weeks. Somebody asked for a cuttoff date to sign up, well first come first served this time. When they run out this time, it may be a long dry spell before we do some more.

Is it possible to get the circuit diagram instead of the kit. Living over in Australia the cost of shipping becomes a factor. I can handle the job of assembly and wiring and have a local supplier of components.. Also does the 'Export model' vary in any way?

It may be possible; TurboTim has posted the schematic which has remained unchanged through the PCB versions of the kit. I don't know about the export CRD versions, but I imagine it works as I have built a kit for another member down under, and he reported it worked. Make sure your EGR valve is electrically actuated; some of the earlier European models (2.5s I think) had a vacuum actuated EGR -- this won't work with those.

Sign me up for one unassembled. I want to do some comparsions on mileage. Maybe I can save some shipping and meet you in Moab for some biking too!

Hey guys, remember this is an off road mod only and that it's required that you have a toggle switch fitted to the steering wheel for ease of turning the SEGR on and off without taking your eyes off the road.

Would the SEGR possibly solve an issue that i posted about the ORM messing up? The post is titled "ORM is messing up".

Myself and maybe 1 or 2 others seem to be having problems after unplugging the MAF; engine cuts out at speed and stubles at idle. Reconeecting the MAF fixes the problem. The best suggestion so far seems to be that me and the others with similar issues are in a fairly cold climate (-5C to 0C).

When I ran the ORM, I noticed an irregular idle, but that was it. I can't say if the SEGR would fix your issue (it's not supposed to be a "fix") or not, but if your vehicle runs fine without the ORM, it should run fine with the SEGR as well.

Do you have an irregular idle with the SEGR?

No I don't. It seems quite civilized.

Not to Hijack but my Fiance' had the MAP sensor replaced this morning because of a check engine light. I wanted to clean it first before it was replaced but the job was all ready done before I had my say. Now the mechanic is telling me that the EGR Valve may be bad do to some additional codes. Replacing the EGR is going to be expensive as hell. He also stated that the EGR cooler could be clogged but there's no way of knowing until EGR valve is removed and the cooler can be checked. Will the SEGR modification you are offering cure my problem? It is $280 correct. Or will this mod. not function properly in combination of a failed EGR valve. From previous posts it's my understanding that the EGR fails open. What does this mean?

^^ If the EGR failed open, that's more of a problem, but you can replace a gasket with a plate and block it off. The SEGR will cover up a bad EGR valve, as long as you can make sure the exhaust flow is blocked. AFAIK, EGR valves will, more often than not, fail CLOSED.

$280 is the total for the kit from LocoCRD plus assembly by me.

If the valve is failed in closed position, the exhaust flow through the EGR is blocked. Otherwise you replace the EGR valve or install a blocking plate instead of one of the gaskets.

I really appreciate your help on this as I've never owned a diesel. The mechanic at this dealer seems quite knowlegeable about diesels and the unique CRD. He seems to think the EGR is bad and that it is not allowing flow so I'm assuming it has failed in the closed position. From what I have read on this forum if it failed in the open position we would be getting some poor running conditions which we have not. So if it is closed how can I verify for sure and if it is closed will the SEGR mod. solve my problems? Also he mentioned the EGR cooler may be clogged but would not know unitl he removed the EGR to be able to inspect the cooler. With the SEGR mod. I assume the cooler is no longer relevant. Is this true? I'm just trying to figure this all out because I may be getting on your list for one of these SEGR's. Also how involved is the install for a pre-built SEGR. I'm pretty mechanically inclined but really have no electronics experience. One last thing with the SEGR install will I be able to unplug the ORM without getting a CEN light?
