My EGR throws a CEL in my H22 swapped accord. Its really a matter of years of usage and years of carbon buildup in the EGR. I suppose my only recourse is to remove it, spray it with some sort of solution which will aid in cleaning it out, then put it back on and see if it continues to throw a CEL. The only other avenue to pursue would be to replace it entirely, the cheapest i've found an OEM honda piece was $156.

its been awhile but i think you need to swap the egr and o2 pins on the ecu. this is only 94/95 accords.

I feel that way about my car too but everyone tells me it pulls strong so lets see, i think im gonna get a new one, or when i tune i'll try to have it bypass the EGR so it doesnt become a factor anymore.

It's the EGR control solenoid that is wired incorrectly.

You need to swap Pins A6 & A11

This is how the P13 is wired for the EGR Control Solenoid.


Therefore if you are using an OBD1 (94/95) F22B1-2 wire harness. You need to swap these two pins.


The EGR valve may also be wired differently at the connector. It may also need two wires to be swapped. What harness is in your 95? F22B1 or B2?
