Checking components and wiring




- Ignition off.
Check the signal cable between control module terminal #A23 (#A23) and boost pressure sensor terminal #4. Check for a short-circuit to ground.

Hint: With the ignition on and the boost pressure sensor connector disconnected, the voltage between terminal #4 and the ground terminal should be approximately 5 V.

If no errors are found and the fault is permanent, replace the boost pressure sensor.
Remedy as necessary.
