NOTE:
If DTC P0234 is displayed with DTC P0237 or P0238, first perform the trouble diagnosis for DTC P0237 or
P0238. P0237.






DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE


1. PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK

Perform component function check. .
NOTE:
Use component function check to check the overall function of the turbocharger system circuit. During this check, DTC might not be confirmed.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- INSPECTION END
NO- Proceed to .


Component Function Check


1. CHECK BOOST CONTROL ACTUATOR HOSE

Check disconnection, looseness or improper connection of hose between turbocharger boost control solenoid valve and boost control actuator.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- GO TO 2.
NO- Proceed to .

2. PERFORM COMPONENT FUNCTION CHECK

1.Turn ignition switch OFF.
2.Disconnect turbocharger boost control solenoid valve harness connector.
3.Disconnect of hose between turbocharger boost control solenoid valve and compressor outlet pipe.
4.Install pressure pump to turbocharger boost control solenoid valve.





5.Check that the rod of the boost control actuator activates when supplying pressure and battery voltage to the turbocharger boost control solenoid valve as per the following conditions.






CAUTION:
Do not supply pressure over 83 kPa (830 mbar, 623 mmHg, 24.51 inHg)
Is the inspection result normal?
YES- INSPECTION END
NO- Proceed to .
