Turbocharging Pressure Sensor Test

  1. To check power source, turn ignition on. Unplug turbocharging pressure sensor. Measure voltage between terminals "VC" and "E2" of harness connector. Voltage should be 4-6 volts.
  2. To check power output, turn ignition on. Unplug turbocharging pressure sensor vacuum hose from intake manifold. Connect voltmeter to Black/White and Black/Yellow wire terminals ("PIM" and "E2") of ECU connector and measure output voltage under ambient atmospheric pressure.
