  1. Check that the waste gate turbo charger is cool enough to work.

    Information 

    • Use an electric fan to cool down fast.
    • The cooling part (A) and the wind direction (B) areas follows.

  2. Turn the ignition switch to OFF position.
  3. Connect the diagnostic tool to DLC connector (16pin) under the driver side instrument panel.
  4. Turn the ignition switch ON.
    CAUTION:
    • Do not start the engine.
  5. Select VIN or Vehicle on the initial screen.
  6. Enter "Engine Control" menu after selecting vehicle information (Vehicle model, Model year, Engine type) or entering the VIN number.
  7. Select the "Current Data".
  8. Without starting the engine, repeatedly turn the ignition ON for 5 seconds and OFF for 5 seconds, and then check the "Adaptation value for low mechanical stop of EWGA" on the diagnostic tool.

    Repeat this step until the amount of difference in the adaptation value from the previous cycle is below 0.05V.

    NOTE:
    • Do not start the engine. This is a crucial step to read the correct adaptation value.
  9. Check that "Adaptation value for the lower mechanical stop of EWGA" is within the specified voltage value.

    Voltage:  3.5 - 3.7V

  10. If the measured voltage value is not within the specified voltage value, adjust the EWGA rod length. Otherwise, no further procedure is required.
    1. Loosen the rod end lock nut (B) and remove the C-ring (A).
    2. Adjust the rod end part (C) by rotating it clockwise (D) or counterclockwise (E) to satisfy the specification.
    Adaptation value for the lower mechanical stop of EWGA (V) Adjusting direction of rod end Rod length variation (After adjustment)
    >3.7V counterclockwise Longer
    <3.5V clockwise Shorter

    Information 

    Turning angle Changing level of the adaptation value (V)
    0.5 mm (180°) Approx. 0.1V
    1 mm (360°) Approx. 0.2V

  11. Install the rod end (B) to the turbocharger lever (A) temporarily. Do not tighten the rod end lock nut (C) and C-ring (D).

  12. Check the "Adaptation value for the lower mechanical stop of EWGA" after selecting "Current Data" menu. Turn the ignition switch ON/OFF repeatedly until the changing value of the "Adaptation value for the lower mechanical stop of EWGA" is within 0.05V.
    NOTE:
    • Turn the ignition switch ON/OFF. But hold 5 seconds at each IG ON or OFF state.
  13. If the measured voltage value is not within the specified voltage value, repeat procedures 9-12 until the voltage value is within the specified voltage value.
  14. If it is within the specified voltage value, install the rod end to the turbocharger lever.
    1. Install the rod end (B) to the turbocharger lever (A) temporarily.
    2. Fix the C-ring (C).

  15. Install the 0.6 mm filler gauge between EWGA lever (A) and rod end (B).
