Hi there

Have look at this guide how to get rid this CEL P0546(Exhaust Gas Temperature Sensor Circuit Malfunction (High Input) )

But I would contact your mapper which can turn off this code easily

Have you de-catted your up pipe?

If so did you refit the EGT sensor?

If not that is the reason for the CEL

Can be cleared by fitting a 2.2K ohm resistor at the plug.........

I drove around for about 2 years with the CEL light on because I removed the EGT sensor and the resistor fix was hit and miss. Racedynamix turned it off in 10 mins
