Wastegate Functional Check

  1. Remove heat shields from turbocharger area. Disconnect linkage from wastegate. Manually operate lever to verify free movement and full travel. If restriction is felt, replace turbocharger.
  2. If no resistance is felt, connect wastegate linkage. Remove actuator hose from solenoid. Apply 8.5 psi (.59 kg/cm2 ) air pressure to actuator hose and check wastegate operation. If wastegate does not open, replace actuator, linkage and mounting plate.
