ABSTRACT:
An improved electrical connection is provided between terminals (T) mounted in a sensor cap (26) that closes an otherwise open end of a cylindrical EEGR valve body shell (24), and terminals (98, 99) mounted in sockets (100, 102) on a solenoid coil assembly (70) that operates the EEGR valve from an engine electrical control that is connected via a wiring harness connector plug mating with an external plug of sensor cap (26) containing terminals (T). The end portions of terminals (T) that mate with terminals (98, 99) are forked blades having reduced thickness from an adjoining portion, thereby providing greater resilient flexibility for a better and more reliable electrical connection.
