The same thing happened to me with a batch of Rebuilt Diesel Engines For Sale my Phoenix AZ business purchased a year or so aga and had to replace.

Was reading on another site to leave the damaged egt sensor in the pipe, un plug the wires and install a 8k - 10k ohm resistor into the wires from the harness. I am going to build one and keep it with me in case the new sensor fouls up again. The sensors are pretty darn pricey at $180.00 a shot.

Not sure if you've been on recently seeing as this thread is a couple years old, but I'm having the same issue with my sled. Did the ohm resistor idea work?

Thanks,

I'm not sure I would trust that with all the engine issue this thing has been having. My egt went a few weeks ago and I replaced it about 20 min into my test ride I got the lights again one of the wires had loosed off but looked to be seated. Maybe check your connection and try it again the worst that can happen is you foul a spark plug ( it just set the fuel control to full rich )

Ok I actually did have a problem fouling the plugs right before i was getting the engine light. I ended up ordering the new egt sensor yesterday..... $205!!!! Better work for that price ha ha.
