What does this fault code mean?
The boost pressure sensor signal stays constantly high and does not change when the pressure changes. The fault is set when the signal lies above a certain value for a set time. The fault may be in the sensor or in its wiring.
Possible causes
- Contact resistance or oxidation in the connections
- Signal wire shorted to voltage
- Open circuit in the signal wire
- Open circuit in the signal ground wire
- Damaged boost pressure sensor
What you can do
- 1Read the code, clear it and road test to see whether it returns
- 2With a diagnostic tool, read boost pressure in live data at idle and with a little throttle; a value that never changes means the signal is stuck
- 3Look at the boost pressure sensor connector and wiring for chafing, pinching and loose connections
- 4Use a multimeter to check that the signal wire is not shorted to positive and that the ground wire is not broken
- 5Check that the fuses are intact. Fuse locations are shown in the owner's manual
- 6If the fault remains, have a workshop check the boost pressure sensor with diagnostic equipment
Symptoms you may notice1
- The malfunction indicator lamp comes on
What the fault can affect1
- Boost pressure is limited
