I have a 1996 Maxima. My check engine light code aid my EGR valve was bad. I replaced the valve, but I'm still getting the same code. Does anybody have any idea what I need to do.

Did you check to see if the passages behind the valve were clear? What code did you get?

The mechanic blow out both lines and the code was told to me by autozone staff.

It would help to know what the code was. Just blowing compressed air into the ports may not be enough.

The code was/is P0400.
You guys should have known that.
The EGR port on the plenum is clogged and most likely the EGR temp sensor is coated with carbon and is not letting the ECM detect an voltage change.
Clean the port and sensor and all will be fine
