EGR valve problem

sometimes my check engine light comes on after 3500 rpms. i checked the computer and it flashes a code 12 which is the egr system malfunction. i check the valve and it seems fine, it's not getting stuck or anything. also the control box seems to be fint too, opening andclosing the valve, but the code is still there. i tried reseting the computer but the mil will show up again as soon as i get the car on the higway
