Defective ECU strategies or components will prevent proper regeneration
A large air leak at or near the number one oxygen sensor would also cause a lean mixture.

With the valve disconnected, the red voltmeter lead should be attached to the IMRC valve power wire and the black voltmeter lead connected to ground. Now, clear the codes and test-drive the vehicle to see if the code is reset.
