The EGR valve in a 2001 Dodge Ram is typically located on the side of the intake manifold. If there is an issue with this valve, a check engine light on the dashboard will indicate a fault detection. The purpose of the EGR valve is to recycle exhaust gases back into the vehicle's intake system, which helps lower emissions by making the exhaust gases safer to expel. When the EGR valve malfunctions, you may experience rough running and decreased power in your truck, as the O2 sensors are exposed to more pollutants and fuel efficiency is reduced.
