Ok I got you. The ECT sensor that your ECU monitors is the one with 2 pins. The one with one pin is the one for the guage. Make sure you are testing/replacing the right one. The testing procedure is different between the 2 sensors.

thedawg - Please don't butcher my name first off. Secondly Your ECU does the Monitoring of all systems, and if you have a decent scanner (Snap-On or the like) you can monitor it yourself. This is what they are looking for,the ability to hook up to the ECU and verify that it is monitoring all the sensors and systems as it is designed. And if your ECU is ready or not to do the monitoring. Then the computer you are using for the inspection interfaces with Albany to let them know all pertinate information about the vehicle being inspected. If you remove your EGR and try to do an inspection, the ECU is going to see that as it "monitors" and set the code then the computer tells on you. Lastly As a NY state inspector you are not just a Smog inspector. We have to do the safety inspection and emissions inspection on every vehicle in for inspection. So I am not stupid I actually know how this shit works in NY. But sometimes when you get a tech trying to explain why a customer's car won't pass, in all kinds of technical terms, it can confuse the customer. Then the customer comes on here and tries to explain it again and it get's more butchered. So when I explain to people I try to simplify some so that I'm not speaking greek.
