How to fix the p0402 OBD-II trouble code?

What repairs can fix the P0402 code? 1 Replacing the stuck open EGR valve 2 Replacing a broken catalyst in the exhaust 3 Replacing an EGR temperature sensor or cleaning the carbon off of it to repair it if it registers too much of a temperature change 4 Replacing the EGR backpressure control valve

What causes the p0402 code on an EGR?

Code P0402 is triggered when the EGR temperature sensor sees more of a temperature change than the EGR has commanded to open. This is usually caused by the EGR backpressure control valve getting a burnt diaphragm from the exhaust backpressure over time or from a partly blocked catalyst. Need help with a P0402 code?
