I’ve been fixing up my automatic 1995 4runner with the 3.0 in it. I ran into an issue a while back where if the egr was plugged in, the cel would come on and the O/D OFF light would stay on full time, not blinking and not able to turn the od on with the shifter button, the idle was steady and it would rev, but it would barely move forward unless the shifter was in low. However, if the egr was unplugged the cel and O/D OFF light would both go off and O/D would function properly with the shifter button and it would drive normally, but the idle was low and surging. Two days ago I unhooked all the vacuum lines to the egr and capped them, cel light came on, but it idled good and would move. Yesterday I deleted the egr and now I have the cel and O/D OFF light on full time, and it will barely move unless in low gear, and it idles fine. I’m thinking shift solenoids, or an electrical issue. If anyone has insight that would be super helpful!
these are the pics of everything I capped off and everything I removed

My 1995 4 runner will not well engage it has a three.0 v6 with an automatic transmission. When I circulate the lever to 4 wheel excessive or low, it clicks and the 4x4 light flashes but it wil not live engaged. On free groung like gravel it seems like it partialy engages, but then it appears like it's far binding. Any thoughts? I were told it can be the actuator located at the the front diff?
