What are the common causes of P0476 ?

In most cases, this code is caused by a clogged back pressure tube and/or exhaust back pressure sensor. However, technicians also report that damaged and burnt electrical wiring and connectors are a possibility. The PCM could also be faulty but this is highly unlikely.

How do you troubleshoot P0476 ?

With the valve disconnected, the red voltmeter lead should be attached to the IMRC valve power wire and the black voltmeter lead connected to ground. Pack the connector cavity with dielectric silicone compound (same stuff they use for light bulb sockets and spark plug wires) and reassemble.
