TURBOCHARGER SUPERCHARGING PRESSURE CHECK <4M4>


1.
caution Conduct the driving test in a location where driving at full acceleration can be done with safety. Two person should be in the vehicle when the test is conducted; the person in the passenger seat should read the indications shown by the M.U.T.-III.
Set the vehicle to the pre-inspection condition.

2.Turn the ignition switch to "LOOK" (OFF) position, and connect the diagnosis connector to the M.U.T.-III.
3.Use the data list function named "Item No. 6" boost pressure sensor of the M.U.T.-III to check the supercharging pressure when the engine speed increases to approximately 3,000 r/min or more by driving at full acceleration in 2nd.
Standard value: 177.3 - 195.9 kPa
4.If the supercharging pressure deviates from the standard value, check the following items for possible cause.

  • Malfunction of the variable geometry actuator
  • Malfunction of the variable geometry solenoid valve
  • Malfunction of the variable nozzle
  • Malfunction of the boost pressure sensor
  • Leakage of supercharging pressure
  • Malfunction of the turbocharger
  • Inadequate vacuum pressure to the variable geometry solenoid valve
5.When the indicated supercharging is more than standard value, supercharging control may be faulty, therefore check the followings.

  • Malfunction of the variable geometry actuator
  • Malfunction of the variable geometry solenoid valve
  • Malfunction of the variable nozzle
  • Malfunction of the manifold absolute pressure sensor
