WASTEGATE Control Solenoid Valve

The wastegate control solenoid valve switches the intake air pressure passages to the wastegate controller in response to signals from the ECM. When the solenoid valve is closed, the intake air pressure upstream of the turbocharger unit is applied to the wastegate controller. When the solenoid valve is opened, the intake air pressure downstream of the turbocharger unit (supercharged air pressure) is applied to the wastegate controller.
