EGR Problem

My check engine light keeps turning on and off, so i checked the code and it read that my EGR valve had excessive flow. i figured that the rubber inside was old or the valve internal were sticking so i replace the egr valve. I erased the code and the next day the check engine light was back on again. Same problem. Any suggestions???
