Default Code 32

Started the car this morning and it runs rough. It is pulling a code 32. What is a code 32? Any suggestions on what or where I need to look. :confused:

Oops. That was an old code. It is a 33. Probably a MAF relay.

replace both relays on the firewall behind the battery, see if code returns

if it does, replace the MAF

Code 32 is a EGR solenoid/switch failure, you can ignore it because it doesnt harm anything.

:iagree: Code 32 is an EGR Circuit code.

I cleared code 32 by installing a new EGR Switch. Disconnected the battery for 10 minutes and code never returned. Cost was $13 at a local GM Dealer.

Check this site out for solving any future codes. Just scroll to the bottom for a table with all the codes, and their most common causes. :thumbs:

EGR temp switch probably is stuck closed, does the light go off when the car warms up?
This happened to me and was the EGR temp switch...Code 32 can be tricky sometimes.
You might want to throw a meter across it just to be sure you're not replacing the wrong part when you take it apart...happened to me.. Good luck
