You are making little sense.
1st you say you have a wire with plug on it that you don't know where it goes
then you say it goes on the EGR valve??????

Sorry its from the back of the egr. It has a black pulg on the end of it, I unhooked it when I upgrade the injs. Its throwwing a code 12 on the ecu.

Sorry about the earlier post.

Sounds like the EGR temp switch , you should have a plug to match coming out of the engine harness near there
