Circuit/System Description

The BorgWarner™ dual-scroll turbocharger (TC) incorporates a wastegate that is controlled by a pressure differential, that is determined by the engine control module (ECM) by means of a PWM solenoid, in order to regulate the pressure ratio of the compressor. A compressor bypass valve also controlled by the ECM by utilizing a remotely mounted solenoid is integrated into the unit to prevent compressor surging and damage from vibrations by opening during abrupt closed throttle conditions. When the valve is open during closed throttle deceleration conditions, the bypass valve allows the air to recirculate in the turbocharger and maintain compressor speed. Within a calibrated range during the closed throttle event, or upon a wide open throttle command the valve will then close to optimize turbo response. The TC bypass valve solenoid has the following circuits:

As engine load and RPM increases the TC Bypass Solenoid parameter should remain commanded ON by the ECM. As soon as the throttle closes the TC Bypass Solenoid parameter should be commanded OFF by the ECM, in order to allow the turbocharger bypass valve to open and allow the TC air to recirculate, thereby preventing compressor surging.

Conditions for Running the DTCs

Conditions for Setting the DTCs

The ECM detects an open, a short to ground, or a short to voltage on the TC bypass valve solenoid control circuit for greater than 4 seconds continuously, or 50 seconds cumulative.

Action Taken When the DTCs Set

DTC P0033, P0034, P0035, are Type B DTCs.

Conditions for Clearing the MIL/DTCs

DTC P0033, P0034, P0035, are Type B DTCs.

Circuit/System Verification

Use the scan tool output controls to command the TC Bypass Solenoid Command parameter ON and OFF. An audible click should be heard and felt.

Circuit/System Testing

1. Clear the DTCs with a scan tool.
2. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the TC bypass valve solenoid.
3. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the voltage supply circuit terminal 2 and ground.

Important: If the ignition fuse is open, it will be necessary to test the spliced voltage supply circuits and the components for a short to ground.

⇒	If a test lamp does not illuminate test the voltage supply circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance.

4. Verify that a test lamp does not illuminate between the control circuit terminal #1 and ground.

⇒	If the test lamp illuminates, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.

5. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 1 and the voltage supply circuit terminal 2.
6. Command the TC bypass solenoid ON and OFF with a scan tool. The test lamp should turn ON and OFF when changing between the commanded states.

⇒	If the test lamp is always ON, test the control circuit for a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.

⇒	If the test lamp is always OFF, test the control circuit for an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal, replace the ECM.

7. If the circuits test normal, replace the TC bypass valve solenoid.
