      • Restricted - Moisture/Ice
      • Skewed
    • Q38 Throttle Body
      • Coking/Loose Clamps/Visible Damage
      • Restricted - Moisture/Ice
    • Air Cleaner Element - Dirty/Restricted
    • Catalytic Converter - Blocked/Restricted/Visible Damage
    • Charge Air Cooler
      • Leaking/Incorrect connection
      • Restricted - Moisture/Ice
    • Engine - Mechanical Condition - Refer to: Symptoms - Engine Mechanical
    • Exhaust System - Leaking/Restricted/Visible Damage -
    • Intake Air Duct - Cracked/Loose Clamps/Restricted/Visible Damage
    • Intake Manifold - Cracked/Loose Clamps/Restricted/Vacuum leak/Visible Damage
    • Positive Crankcase Ventilation System
      • Leaking @ O-Ring - Missing/Visible Damage
      • Restricted - Moisture/Ice
      • Incorrect connection/Leaking/Restricted
    • Vacuum Hoses - Kinked/Leaking/Incorrect connection/Restricted
    • Vacuum leak @ Engine - Oil Level Indicator and Tube/Oil Filler Cap
    • If a condition exists 

      Repair as necessary

    • Go to next step: If no conditions exist 
  2. NOTE:

    It may take up to 2 min for all vehicle systems to power down before an accurate ground or low reference circuit continuity test can be performed.

  3. Ignition/Vehicle & All vehicle systems - Off
  4. Disconnect the electrical connector: - B111 Turbocharger Boost Sensor
  5. Test for less than 5 ohms between the test points: Low Reference circuit terminal 2 & Ground
    • If 5 ohms or greater 
    1. Disconnect the electrical connector: X3 @ K20 Engine Control Module
    2. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: Low Reference circuit terminal 2 @ Component harness & The other end of the circuit
      • If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 ohms - Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
    • Go to next step: If less than 5 ohms 
  6. Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
  7. Test for 4.8 to 5.2 V between the test points: 5 V Reference circuit terminal 1 & Ground
    • If less than 4.8 V 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: X2 @ K20 Engine Control Module
    3. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: 5 V Reference circuit terminal 1 @ Component harness & Ground
      • If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • Go to next step: If infinite resistance
    4. Test for less than 2 ohms between the test points: 5 V Reference circuit terminal 1 @ Component harness & The other end of the circuit
      • If 2 ohms or greater - Repair the open/high resistance in the circuit.
      • If less than 2 ohms - Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
    • If greater than 5.2 V 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K20 Engine Control Module
    3. Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
    4. Test for less than 1 V between the test points: 5 V Reference circuit terminal 1 @ Component harness & Ground
      • If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
      • If less than 1 V - Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
    • Go to next step: If between 4.8 and 5.2 V 
  8. Verify the scan tool parameter: Boost Pressure Sensor = Greater than 4.7 V
    • If 4.7 V or less 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K20 Engine Control Module
    3. Test for infinite resistance between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 3 @ Component harness & Ground
      • If less than infinite resistance - Repair the short to ground on the circuit.
      • If infinite resistance - Replace the component: K20 Engine Control Module
    • Go to next step: If greater than 4.7 V 
  9. Connect a 3 A fused jumper wire between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 3 & Low Reference circuit terminal 2
  10. Verify the scan tool parameter: Boost Pressure Sensor = Less than 0.2 V
    • If 0.2 V or greater 
    1. Ignition/Vehicle - Off & Remove - Jumper wire(s)
    2. Disconnect the electrical connector: K20 Engine Control Module
    3. Ignition - On/Vehicle - In Service Mode
    4. Test for less than 1 V between the test points: Signal circuit terminal 3 @ Component harness & Ground
      • If 1 V or greater - Repair the short to voltage on the circuit.
