Circuit/System Testing
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Cadillac ATS. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- Verify the conditions listed below do not exist:
- Vacuum leaks
- Vacuum line restrictions
- Improper routing or connecting of the vacuum hoses on the Q40 Bypass Solenoid Valves, bypass valves, Q42 Turbocharger Wastegate solenoid valves, wastegate valve actuators, vacuum pump and the vacuum tank.
- If a condition exists
Repair or replace the component as necessary.
- If none of the conditions exist
- Ignition Off, disconnect the vacuum supply hose at the turbocharger vacuum pump.
- Connect the GE 23738-A to the pump outlet.
- Engine Idling, verify the vacuum value is less than or equal to 15 kPa (4.4 inches Hg).
- If not within the specified range
Repair or replace the vacuum pump.
- If within the specified range
- If not within the specified range
- Ignition Off, disconnect all vacuum hoses at the appropriate turbocharger vacuum tank and cap or plug the valve outlet ports.
- Connect the GE 23738-A to the vacuum tank inlet port and apply 5 kPa (1.5 inches Hg) of vacuum.
- Verify the tank holds vacuum for at least 10 s.
- If the vacuum is not held for at least 10 s
Replace the vacuum tank.
- If the vacuum is held for at least 10 s
- If the vacuum is not held for at least 10 s
- Connect the vacuum hoses to the tank.
- Disconnect the Q40 Turbocharger Bypass Solenoid Valve output to mechanical bypass valve input vacuum hose at the bypass valve and connect the GE 23738-A to the hose.
- Engine idling.
- Verify the vacuum value toggles between 0 kPa (0 inches Hg) to less than or equal to 15 kPa (4.4 inches Hg), when commanding the Turbocharger Bypass Solenoid Valve between Active and Inactive with a scan tool.
- If not within the specified range
Replace the Q40 Turbocharger Bypass Solenoid Valve.
- If within the specified range
- If not within the specified range
- Connect any hoses that were disconnected during previous steps.
- Verify the conditions listed below do not exist with the mechanical turbocharger bypass valve assembly:
- Damage
- Leaks
- Restrictions
- If a condition exists
Repair or replace the mechanical turbocharger bypass valve as necessary.
- If none of the conditions exist
- Replace the B111B Turbocharger Boost/Intake Air Temperature Sensor.
NOTE:
To determine the vacuum value, subtract the absolute value of the vacuum gauge reading from the barometric pressure.
