2007 Compass Patriot MK Factory Service Manual 9 - ENGINE

P0045 - TURBOCHARGER BOOST CONTROL CIRCUIT/OPEN





For a complete wiring diagram Refer to Section 8W



Possible Causes
  
INTERMITTENT DTC
  
(K344) FUSED MAIN RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
  
(K137) BOOST PRESSURE CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND
  
(K137) BOOST PRESSURE CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE
  
VALVE BLOCK ASSEMBLY
  
ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM)
  

Always perform the Pre-Diagnostic Troubleshooting procedure before proceeding. (Refer to 9 - ENGINE - DIAGNOSIS AND TESTING)



Diagnostic Test

1. DTC IS ACTIVE

Ignition on, engine not running.
With the scan tool, clear DTCs in the Engine Control Module (ECM).
With the scan tool, actuate the Boost Pressure at 100%.
Monitor the scan tool for at least two minutes.
With the scan tool, select View DTCs.

Is the status Active for this DTC?

Yes


No

2. (K344) FUSED MAIN RELAY OUTPUT CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Valve Block Assembly harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
Using a 12 volt test light connected to ground, check the (K344) Fused Main Relay Output circuits in the Valve Block Assembly harness connector.

NOTE: The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.



Is the test light illuminated and bright for each circuit?

Yes


No

3. (K137) BOOST PRESSURE CONTROL CIRCUIT SHORTED TO GROUND



Turn the ignition off.
Disconnect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Measure the resistance between ground and the (K137) Boost Pressure Control circuit in the Valve Block Assembly harness connector.

Is the resistance above 10.0 ohms?

Yes


No

4. (K137) BOOST PRESSURE CONTROL CIRCUIT OPEN OR HIGH RESISTANCE



Measure the resistance of the (K137) Boost Pressure Control circuit between the Valve Block Assembly harness connector and the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.

Is the resistance below 10.0 ohms?

Yes


No

5. VALVE BLOCK ASSEMBLY

Connect the Engine Control Module (ECM) harness connector.
Turn the ignition on.
With the scan tool, actuate the Boost Pressure (Boost Pressure Actuator) to 100%.
Using a 12 volt test light connected to 12 volts, check the (K137) Boost Pressure Control circuit in Valve Block Assembly harness connector.

NOTE: The test light should be illuminated and bright. Compare the brightness to that of a direct connection to the battery.


NOTE: The circuit will remain actuated by the controller for 30 seconds. Be certain the actuation is active when checking the circuit.


With the scan tool, actuate the Boost Pressure (Boost Pressure Actuator) to 0%.
Using a 12 volt test light connected to 12 volts, check the (K137) Boost Pressure Control circuit in the Valve Block Assembly harness connector.

NOTE: The test light should not be illuminated.


NOTE: The circuit will remain actuated by the controller for 30 seconds. Be certain the actuation is active when checking the circuit.



Is the test light illuminated and bright with the actuation at 100% and not illuminated with the actuation at 0%?

Yes


No

6. ENGINE CONTROL MODULE (ECM)

Using the wiring diagram/schematic as a guide, inspect the wiring and connectors between the Valve Block Assembly and the Engine Control Module (ECM).
Look for any chafed, pierced, pinched, or partially broken wires.
Look for broken, bent, pushed out or corroded terminals.
Refer to any Technical Service Bulletins that may apply.

Were any problems found?

Yes


No
