SPN 2791 FMI 14 diagnostic overview
This code means the EGR valve actuator has entered failsafe mode with the motor on. Steps first rule out SPN 168 voltage codes and related SPN 2791/FMI 9 and SPN 1073/FMI 4 faults, then test the actuator connector and its supply and return circuits. Reading SPN 2791 FMI 14 correctly stops parts being replaced before the wiring and mechanical checks are done.
