DTC P2564 Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Circuit Low Voltage (Figure OBD-117)

Figure OBD-117:   Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Circuit

Circuit Description

The position of the turbocharger vanes is controlled by the engine control module (ECM). The ECM utilizes a turbocharger vane
control solenoid valve and a turbocharger vane position sensor to control the turbocharger vanes. When the engine is not under
load, the turbocharger vanes are in an open position, or no boost condition. When the engine is under load, the ECM commands the
control solenoid valve to close the turbocharger vanes, thus increasing the boost. The ECM will vary the boost dependant upon the
load requirements of the engine. The vane position sensor uses the following three circuits:

• A 5-volt reference circuit 

• A low reference circuit 

• A signal circuit 

The ECM provides the sensor with 5 volts on the 5-volt reference circuit and a ground on the low reference circuit. Movement of
the sensor from the closed position to the open position provides the ECM with a signal voltage through the position sensor signal
circuit. If the ECM detects an excessively low position sensor signal voltage, DTC P2564 will set.

Conditions for Setting the DTC 

• The turbocharger vane position sensor voltage is less than 1 volt. 

• The above condition exists for more than 6 seconds. 

Action Taken When the DTC Sets 

• The control module illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) on the second consecutive ignition cycle that the diag-

nostic runs and fails. 

• The control module records the operating conditions at the time the diagnostic fails. The first time the diagnostic fails, the

control module stores this information in the Failure Records. If the diagnostic reports a failure on the second consecu-

tive ignition cycle, the control module records the operating conditions at the time of the failure. The control module 
writes the operating conditions to the Freeze Frame and updates the Failure Records. 

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTC 

• The control module turns OFF the malfunction indicator lamp (MIL) after 3 consecutive ignition cycles that the diagnostic 

runs and does not fail. 

• A current DTC, Last Test Failed, clears when the diagnostic runs and passes. 

• A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive warm-up cycles, if no failures are reported by this or any other emission related 

diagnostic.

• Clear the MIL and the DTC with a scan tool.

The position of the turbocharger vanes is controlled by the engine control module (ECM). The ECM utilizes a turbocharger vane

• A low reference circuit 

• A signal circuit 

The ECM provides the sensor with 5 volts on the 5-volt reference circuit and a ground on the low reference circuit. Movement of
the sensor from the closed position to the open position provides the ECM with a signal voltage through the position sensor signal
circuit. If the ECM detects an excessively high position sensor signal voltage, DTC P2565 will set.

Conditions for Setting the DTC 

• The ECM detects that the turbocharger vane position sensor signal voltage is more than 3.9 volts. 

• The above condition exists for more than 6 seconds.
