| DTC Code | DTC Name |
|---|---|
| P0046 | Turbocharger / Supercharger Boost Control "A" Circuit Range / Performance |
DESCRIPTION
Variable nozzle vane type turbocharger consists primarily of a compressor wheel, turbine wheel, nozzle vane, unison ring, DC motor and nozzle vane position sensor.
The ECM outputs a signal to the turbo motor driver, which actuates the DC motor, to control the nozzle vane position.

Tech Tips
Read freeze frame data using the GTS. Freeze frame data records the engine condition when malfunctions are detected. When troubleshooting, freeze frame data can help determine if the vehicle was moving or stationary, if the engine was warmed up or not, and other data from the time the malfunction occurred.
PROCEDURE
CHECK FOR ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO P0046)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine / Troble codes.
Read the DTCs.
