Hi Guys,

What can be the problem if my Mazda Tribute V6 2001 has this P1409 fault code and the engine light is on?
The mechanic wasn't sure about the problem and he couldn't turn the engine light off either as every time he did it it came back right after turning on the engine again.
So what is your best guess about this?
What part should I buy to fix the issue?

Many thanks in advance.
Cheers,
vaszil

Hi there

Usually when the code reappears so quickly it's an electrical issue to the egr solenoid. The computer isn't seeing a signal or power from the solenoid which would make the code come on instantly.
