I deleted it as well and got an SES light. However all I did was plug in the EGR solenoid to the harness and tucked it away and the SES light shut off. Its a temporary fix until I get it tuned but it worked You will need block off plates. I bought mine off of eBay for $12.

Just did this a few weeks ago just pull the solenoid off and the tube off put block off plates where they use to be. Did you also remove you AIR system?

You can delete the air system as well. Some get away with removing everything and just leaving the fuse in. Some get a ses light some don't.

Did it not to long ago. Got an SES light but had it tuned out of my PCM. It's very simple. Get some EGR block off plates and some silicone to seal it and your golden. Took me about 20 minutes. It sucked more just getting your arm back there with it being so close to the cowl.
