DESCRIPTION
These DTCs indicate that the DC motor of the turbocharger is malfunctioning. The ECM monitors the DC motor current to detect an open or short in the DC motor circuit. If the current meets certain criteria, the ECM stores a DTC and illuminates the MIL immediately.
The DC motor is used to operate the nozzle vane of the turbocharger. The nozzle vane opens and closes to change the velocity of exhaust emissions in order to control the turbo pressure. The ECM varies the duty ratio of the DC motor in accordance with the driving conditions.
If the nozzle vane is stuck closed (DC motor stuck off), drivability may deteriorate at wide open throttle. If the nozzle vane is stuck open (DC motor stuck on), drivability may deteriorate at intermediate throttle positions or the engine power may be insufficient.
| DTC Detection Drive Pattern | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| Engine switch on (IG) for 5 seconds | Either of the following conditions are met when the motor is driving (1 trip detection logic):
|
|
| DTC Detection Drive Pattern | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| 2 seconds after engine is started, race engine for 1 second | The DC motor duty ratio is 80% or more and the motor current is 0.5 A or less for 3 seconds or more (1 trip detection logic). |
|
| DTC Detection Drive Pattern | DTC Detection Condition | Trouble Area |
|---|---|---|
| 2 seconds after engine is started, race engine for 1 second | Overcurrent is detected 25 times or more (0.4 seconds or more) (1 trip detection logic). |
|
If DTC P0046, P0047, P0048, P004B, P004C or P004D is stored, the following symptom may appear.
Stuck closed malfunction:
- Vehicle surge when driving with full load
Stuck open malfunction:
- Lack of power
- Vehicle surge or hesitation under light or medium load
INSPECTION PROCEDURE
After replacing the ECM, the new ECM needs registration (Click here) and initialization (Click here).
After replacing the fuel supply pump assembly, the ECM needs initialization (Click here).
After replacing an injector assembly, the ECM needs registration (Click here).
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 DTC P0046, P0047, P0048, P004B, P004C OR P004D)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG) and turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
Read the DTCs.
| Result | Proceed to |
|---|---|
| P0046, P0047, P0048, P004B, P004C or P004D is output | A |
| P0046, P0047, P0048, P004B, P004C or P004D and other DTCs are output | B |
If codes other than P0046, P0047, P0048, P004B, P004C or P004D are output, perform troubleshooting for those DTCs first.
PERFORM ACTIVE TEST USING GTS (OPERATE TURBOCHARGER SUB-ASSEMBLY)
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Turn the engine switch on (IG).
Turn the GTS on.
Enter the following menus: Engine and ECT / Active Test / Test the Turbo Charger Step Motor (Test the Turbo Charger Step Motor #2) / Data List / Target VN Turbo Position (Target VN Turbo Position #2) and Actual VN Turbo Position (Actual VN Turbo Position #2).
While changing the Active Test value to 20, 95, 60 and 20%, check that Actual VN Turbo Position (Actual VN Turbo Position #2) smoothly changes to the set opening amount.
When moving the vanes toward the fully closed position, make sure that Actual VN Turbo Position (Actual VN Turbo Position #2) does not become 5% or less.
| OK |
|---|
| The Actual VN Turbo Position (Actual VN Turbo Position #2) value follows the Target VN Turbo Position (Target VN Turbo Position #2). |
INSPECT TURBOCHARGER SUB-ASSEMBLY (DC MOTOR RESISTANCE)
Disconnect the DC motor connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
| Standard Resistance | |||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
|
| *a | Component without harness connected (DC Motor) |
CHECK HARNESS AND CONNECTOR (DC MOTOR - ECM)
Disconnect the DC motor connector.
Disconnect the ECM connector.
Measure the resistance according to the value(s) in the table below.
| Standard Resistance | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Reconnect the DC motor connector.
Reconnect the ECM connector.
REPLACE ECM
Replace the ECM (Click here).
REPLACE TURBOCHARGER SUB-ASSEMBLY
When DTC P0046, P0047 or P0048 is output:
Replace the turbocharger sub-assembly (for bank 1) (Click here).
When DTC P004B, P004C or P004D is output:
Replace the turbocharger sub-assembly (for bank 2) (Click here).
REPAIR OR REPLACE HARNESS OR CONNECTOR
Repair or replace the harness or connector.
CONFIRM WHETHER MALFUNCTION HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY REPAIRED
Connect the GTS to the DLC3.
Clear the DTCs (Click here).
Turn the engine switch off and wait for at least 30 seconds.
Turn the engine switch on (IG) for 5 seconds or more.
2 seconds after the engine is started, race the engine for 1 second.
Enter the following menus: Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.
Confirm that the DTC is not output again.
