ECD SYSTEM(w/o Glow Plug Controller), Diagnostic DTC:P0046

DTC Code DTC Name
P0046 Turbocharger / Supercharger Boost Control Solenoid Circuit Range / Performance

DESCRIPTION

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 gases in order to control the turbo pressure. The ECM varies the duty-cycle of the DC motor in accordance with the driving conditions.

If the nozzle vane is stuck closed (DC motor stuck off), the drivability may deteriorate at wide open throttle. If the nozzle vane is stuck open (DC motor stuck on), the drivability may deteriorate at intermediate throttle or the engine power may be insufficient.

DTC No.

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Note:

When replacing the ECM, perform ECM Initialization and Registration.

Tip:

  • When the ECM must be replaced, before replacing the ECM, perform the "Learning Values Save" function using the GTS. Then after installing a new ECM, perform all of the initialization and registration procedures for the "Learning Values Write" function by following the instructions shown on the GTS display.

  • 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

  1. CHECK ANY OTHER DTCS OUTPUT (IN ADDITION TO DTC P0046)

    1. Connect the GTS to the DLC3.

    2. Turn the ignition switch to ON and turn the GTS on.

    3. Enter the following menus: Powertrain / Engine and ECT / Trouble Codes.

    4. Read the DTCs.

      Powertrain > Engine and ECT > Trouble Codes

      B
      Tip:

      If any DTCs other than P0046 are output, troubleshoot those DTCs first.

  2. INSPECT TURBOCHARGER SUB-ASSEMBLY
