Circuit Description

The electronic control module (ECM) periodically checks and adjusts the zero position of the turbocharger position sensor when the turbocharger is closed. This self-calibrating feature adjusts for wear and unit-to-unit variation of position sensors and actuator assemblies. This fault is logged if the position sensor reading is outside the calibrated limits.

Component Location

The turbocharger position sensor is mounted on the turbocharger actuator assembly on the bearing housing of the turbocharger. Refer to Procedure 100-002 in Section E for a detailed component location view.

Shop Talk

A possible cause of this fault code could be a turbocharger internal failure causing the turbocharger actuator to not close fully.

When troubleshooting inactive counts of this fault code, running the Turbocharger Actuator Test in INSITE™ electronic service tool could help to identify a stuck turbocharger actuator.
