Wastegate Bypass Regulator Valve, Checking

Special tools, testers and auxiliary items required

• Multimeter.

• Wiring diagram.

Test requirements

• The Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) fuses OK.

• Battery voltage at least 12.5 volts.

• All electrical consumers such as, lights and rear window defroster, switched off.

• On vehicles with automatic transmission, selector lever in position "P" or "N".

• A/C switched off.

• Ground connections between engine/transmission/chassis OK.

• Ignition switched OFF.

Test procedure

- Perform a preliminary check to verify the customers complaint. Refer to => [ Preliminary Check ] Preliminary Check

Start diagnosis

- Remove the engine cover with air filter. Refer to the Repair Informatiom.

Checking internal resistance

- Disconnect the Wastegate Bypass Regulator Valve (N75) electrical harness connector- 1 -.

- Using a multimeter, check the Wastegate Bypass Regulator Valve (N75) terminals 1 to 2 for resistance.

Specified value: 20 to 30 ohms (at approx. 20° C)

If the specified value was Not obtained:

- Replace the Wastegate Bypass Regulator Valve (N75) Refer to the Repair Informatiom.

If the specified value was obtained:

Checking Voltage supply






- Start the engine.

- Using a multimeter, check the Wastegate Bypass Regulator Valve (N75) electrical harness connector terminal 1 to engine ground.

Specified value: battery voltage.

- Switch the ignition OFF.

If the specified value was Not obtained:

- Check the wiring for a short circuit to ground, high resistance or an open circuit.

- Check fuse for open and replace if blown. Refer to Wiring Diagrams.

- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.

- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.

If the specified value was obtained:

- Remove the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623).

- Using a multimeter, check the Wastegate Bypass Regulator Valve (N75) electrical harness connector terminal to the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623) electrical harness connector terminal for an open circuit.






Specified value: 1.5 ohms max.

If the specified value was Not obtained:

- Check the wiring for an open or high resistance.

- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.

- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.

If no malfunction is detected in the wiring and if the voltage supply was OK:

- Replace the Engine Control Module (ECM) (J623). Refer to the Repair Informatiom.

- Install the engine cover with air filter. Refer to the Repair Informatiom.

Final procedures

After the repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:

1. Check the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 03 - Read DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09.

2. If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to => [ Diagnostic Mode 04 - Erase DTC Memory ] Diagnostic Modes 01 - 09.

3. If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to => [ Readiness Code ] Monitors, Trips, Drive Cycles and Readiness Codes.
