P0235 TC BOOST SENSOR
[M9R]

< COMPONENT DIAGNOSIS >

P0235 TC BOOST SENSOR

A

Description

INFOID:0000000001307494

The turbocharger boost sensor detects pressure in the exit side of the charge air cooler. The sensor output ECR
voltage to the ECM increases as pressure increases.

DTC Logic

INFOID:0000000001451448

C

DTC DETECTION LOGIC
DTC No.

P0235

Trouble diagnosis name

DTC detecting condition

Turbocharger boost sensor circuit
low input

An excessively low voltage from the sensor is
sent to ECM.

Turbocharger boost sensor circuit
high input

An excessively high voltage from the sensor is
sent to ECM.

Turbocharger boost sensor circuit
range/performance

Rationally incorrect voltage from the sensor is
sent to ECM, compared with the voltage signal
from barometric pressure sensor (built-into
ECM)

Possible cause

• Harness or connectors
(Turbocharger boost sensor circuit
is open or shorted.)
• Turbocharger boost sensor
• Barometric pressure sensor (builtinto EC)
