P0069-BOOST KEY ON RATIONALITY


P0069 - Boost Key On Rationality:






WHEN MONITORED
While the key is on.

SET CONDITION
The boost pressure recorded at key on is not within a calibrated range from the inlet air pressure sensor.

POSSIBLE CAUSES
- Other DTC's present
- Inlet air pressure sensor
- Boost pressure sensor
- Intermittent condition

Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding.

Diagnostic Test

1. OTHER DTC'S PRESENT
With the scan tool, read DTCs.

Q: Are any DTC's present for Inlet air pressure or boost pressure?

YES: Repair other DTC's first. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST VER - 1 (DIESEL). Powertrain Verification Test - Ver 1
NO: Go To 2

2. COMPARE THE INLET AIR PRESSURE
Using the scan tool, compare the inlet air pressure (barometric pressure) sensor reading to the boost pressure sensor reading.

Q: Are the pressure readings within 6 in Hg of each other?

YES: Go To 5
NO: Go To 3

3. INLET AIR PRESSURE SENSOR
Turn the ignition on, engine off.
Using the scan tool, read the inlet air pressure sensor value.

Q: Is the inlet air pressure sensor reading consistent with the barometric pressure for the geographic region?

YES: Go To 4
NO: Relace the inlet air pressure sensor. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST VER - 1 (DIESEL). Powertrain Verification Test - Ver 1

4. BOOST PRESSURE SENSOR
Using the scan tool, read the boost pressure sensor value.

Q: Is the Boost pressure sensor reading consistent with the barometric pressure for the geographic region?

YES: Go To 5
NO: Relace the Boost pressure sensor. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST VER - 1 (DIESEL). Powertrain Verification Test - Ver 1

5. INTERMITTENT CONDITION
The conditions necessary to set this DTC are not present at this time.
Using the schematics as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors specific to this circuit.
Wiggle the wiring and connectors while checking for any possible open or shorted circuits.
Check for any Service Information Tune-ups or Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.

Q: Were there any problems found?

YES: Repair as necessary. Perform the POWERTRAIN VERIFICATION TEST VER - 1 (DIESEL). Powertrain Verification Test - Ver 1
NO: Test Complete.
