    Hello everybody,

    I got my 2009 DD15 Cascadia an engine wash.
    As soon as the engine wash was over my engine light turns on. And freightliner is telling me to get an EGR valve actuator kit, almost 1600 $ bucks. A mechanic told me the wash may have been coincidental.
    Everything was working fine before the wash..
    Any advice or Ideas?
    Anyone ever have this problem???
    Thanks

    Maybe some wiring that shouldn't get wet got wet.....I'm sure they never intended some connections to receive high pressure spray.....

    Just thinking out loud.....

    Yes, but it has been parked for 4 days. It should have dried out?

    Depends. If water got inside a weather pak, it might not have....I can't say for sure, as I'm no expert...but that's where I'd start
