Best post on this problem! Garage Boys rock! Easy and cheap fix. A little tough to get to especially with big hands but I got'r done.

Thank you very much, you are appreciated

[@BandNerdI]

I have a question, I had this code pop up, but the piece was still intact and snug. I’ve replaced the valve before so I’ve done the turn on car for a better position etc… question is, when you turn on the ignition even with the valve on, is it suppose to spin around at the bottom still? I was turning on my ignition and had my dad look at the piece and told me all it did was just wiggle, as if it wants to move. Now that I’m thinking about it, if the valve switch doesn’t reach the bottom hole for it to snap when it’s in certain position, then how does the thing rotate around when the valve is snapped on? Thanks man.

[@ed96378]

If you turn it on and look at it (the valve) and wait a few minutes or so the valve just goes up and down,it does not not rotate all around just up and down.

[@gradycrow4824]

I’m running into this exact issue. I have a p2076 code popping up. Seems like the actuator won’t turn completely when I put the old running arm back into it. The nipple is missing on the arm so I ordered a new arm and it comes in tomorrow. My question is, when I put the new arm on, will that allow the actuator to make its rotations? If I take the old arm out of place it will spin in a circle when turning the ignition so I would assume yes, just wanted an opinion from someone else.

[@silentofhell47]

Man, I have the same exact question. I don't know if it turns or just go up and down cause my wife's car just got a new intake manifold tuning valve and doesn't see if it works or not

Had this prob last year and my ex boyfriend fixed for me. He found a part on Amazon that had a metal ‘knob’ instead of plastic. I got the P2076 error again today, watched your video, the part we put in last year is still there and in tact, it’s not hanging. Any ideas? 😅

Are you sure it’s intact ? I believe I got the same one as you the thing is with the metal knob it detaches so you would have to get another but also taking the metal knob out with a needle nose.

You have to buy a new part because it will come out again. The code will erase itself once you replace the part, or you can clear the code and it one come back
