> 95 A6 5 speed 137k miles...just did the EGR cleaning runs great but 
> codes still exist...check engine light came on and 2-4-1-1 was again 
> present (EGR system) then "cleared" that code and found 
> another...1-1-1-1. This was done by paper clip method as outlined 
> 12v.org. After cleaning EGR and manifold I disconnected the battery for

> be well. But the check engine light of course returned.
> 1-1-1-1 indicates Control Module malfunction.
> 2-4-1-1 indicates EGR system.
> No, I didn't check the resistance to EGR temp sensor when the whole

> So, the questions are: why still the EGR and what do I do to look in to 
> the 1-1-1-1 code.
> Lastly, is there a fuse to the ECU in this car? I believe the AAN 
> engine has a relay or fuse to the ECU that can be pulled thereby 
> "resetting" everything.
