Signal Too High






Signal too high

Checking the component and wiring
- Check the boost pressure sensor connector. Check for contact resistance and oxidation.
Check signal cable for an open-circuit and short-circuit to supply voltage.
Take readings between:
- Engine Control Module (ECM) #A86 (#B26) and boost pressure sensor #4.
Check the ground lead. Check for an open-circuit.
Take readings between:
- Engine Control Module (ECM) #A38 (#A38) and boost pressure sensor #1.

Hint: The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) may be caused by a damaged boost pressure sensor.

Remedy as necessary.

Verification

Hint: After carrying out the repair, check that the fault has been remedied.








- Ignition off
- Reinstall the connectors, components etc.
- Ignition on.
Read off the value from the boost pressure sensor and the atmospheric pressure sensor.
The signal from the atmospheric pressure sensor is used as a reference value in this test.
Check that the boost pressure sensor value is approximately the same as the atmospheric pressure sensor value.





Is the value correct?

Yes - VERIFIED

No - VERIFICATION FAILED

Information

Fault-tracing information
The fault should have been detected and remedied. As this is not the case fault-tracing has failed.
Exit fault-tracing for this diagnostic trouble code (DTC) or make another attempt.

Do you want to exit fault-tracing?

Yes - Exit fault-tracing

No - Attempt New Test
