Variable Geometry Turbocharger (VGT) Vane Actuator
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2019 Jaguar XF. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The VGT vane actuator is located on the side of the turbocharger.
The actuator comprises a 12V DC motor which operates a worm drive to move the actuator arm to adjust the vane position.
The PCM controls the output to the vane actuator motor using a Pulse width modulation (PWM) output.
The motor also contains an angular position sensor. The PCM outputs a 5V reference voltage to the position sensor and the sensor returns a ground and a signal proportional to the actuator position.
