code 12 means the EGR Lift Sensor You'll need to find out if it is getting the proper signal to the ECU.
And see if the solenoid is turning on the vacum to the EGR valve.
But saying you have a low idle makes me wonder if there might be a big vacum leak, or maybe the vacum lines are wrong and the EGR is being opened at the wrong time?

you may want to check to see if you plugged the sensor back up on the egr valve..i did this recently..I took the egr valve off to clean it and forgot to plug it back up therefore I threw a code 12...but no more cel for me
