codes

I checked my codes the other day as the check engine light would come on and then go off every once in a while - I got two - 32 EGR control solenoid, 34* Knock sensor (KS). I checked all the vac. hoses and found a leak going into the fresh air intake and fixed it. Could that have caused the EGR code to come up? I looked at the Haynes manual to try and check the EGR and it doesn't seem to be getting vac..
I hate to just run out and buy the EGR control Solenoid - not sure the cost.
Also, could that vac. leak cause the knock sensor to come on? I've never checked the codes and have had the car for several years - so don't know how long they have been on there.
I've driven the car around and the light hasn't come on since I fixed the vac. leak, so don't know if it's fixed or not. My son is taking off for a 1600 mile trip with it in several days - would like to think everything is working before he leave. Or just assume - no lights - A -OK
Could some one tell me how to check the egr, or egr solenoid incase I'm not doing it right?
thanks.
