This bentley site gives the best discriptions of the codes.

http://www.bentleypublishers.com/tec....dtc.table.htm

One is EGR related. The EGR solenoid is activated by a combination of vacuum from the intake and a solenoid. The solenoid is controlled by the ECU. There are two modes , test the EGR system and normal running.

The other is tank vent valve circuit whatever that is, no idea what that is never seen it before.

Maybe you have those two connections crossed.

There's a place online that lists the code, the meaning, and possible solutions. I thought it was a ross-tech website but i'm having trouble digging it up. Maybe someone can provide a link
