    What Does P0477 Mean?

    Regarding the P0477 code, it would probably be worthwhile to carefully inspect the wire harness near the intake manifold bracket. This is done most easily from below the car in the area near the oil filter. When you see P0477 engine fault code on your engine code reader this description will help you.
