Ignition ON and after 1 driving cycles of fault rectification
Component Details:
A
Variable Turbine Geometry
turbocharger is also known as a
variable geometry turbocharger (VGT)
, or a
Variable
Nozzle Turbine (VNT)
. A turbocharger equipped with Variable Turbine Geometry has little movable vanes which can
direct exhaust flow onto the turbine blades. The vane angles are adjusted via an actuator. The angle of the vanes varies
throughout the engine RPM range to optimize turbine behavior.
Preliminary Checks:
x
Check whether the customer voice / view about the issue is matching with the fault effects mentioned above. If yes,
go ahead with next steps. If not, check for other DTC’s presence.
x
Check whether similar complaints are earlier reported. If yes, perform the preliminary checks with respect to earlier
issue closure.
x
Loose/ Damaged Connections between VGT Actuator and EMS ecu? If found rectify as per schematics.
x
Check for back out of pins at both VGT Actuator connector and EMS ECU connector. If found rectify
x
Check for damage of pins at both VGT Actuator and EMS ECU connector. If found rectify / replace connectors.
