Check Engine Light

Check Engine Light
I recently cleaned out my EGR port, I removed some vacuum hoses, and unglugged some stuff to remove it but i put them all back. Until a couple hours later i was driving and my check engine light came on. I Checked the code and it gave me code 1-2. Some one help me......!>!>!>! O yeah! I looked under the hood and i had forgot to connect one of the hoses, could that be it? do i just need to reset?[:-]

RE: Check Engine Light
Code 12 is EGR valve lift sensor circuit fault. It means a faulty input to the ECU from the valve lift sensor (short, open, or inconsistent perhaps) has been detected. Did you reconnect the EGR valve lift sensor? There is a lengthy diagnostic that must be stepped through to determine the fault source. If you download the 94-97 Accord shop manual (see DIY link for online manuals), you can perform the tests to find the fault.

RE: Check Engine Light
Problem Solved. Went to auto zone, made sure i had the right code. Went to the mechanic where this guy wanted to charge me $55 to clean the valve. I told him that i forgot to connect the vacuum hose to the EGR valve and dwas driving the car. So last night i connected the hose, this morning i got the code cleared by another mechanic, FOR FREE WOOOO, could have done it myself. But hey save me the time. THANK YOU GUYS FOR YOUR HELP!!!!
