DTC P0045

The position of the turbocharger vanes is controlled by the engine control module (ECM). The ECM utilises a turbocharger vane position control solenoid or a boost pressure actuator and a turbocharger pressure sensor to control the turbocharger vanes. The ECM will vary the boost dependant upon the load requirements of the engine. The ECM uses a pulse width modulation on the control circuit to control the solenoid valve.

P0045 01, P0045 02, and P0045 04

The control module detects that the commanded state of the driver and the actual state of the control circuit do not match.

P0045 54

The control module detects that the output driver chip temperature is too high.

DTC P0045 is a Type B DTC.

DTC P0045 is a Type B DTC.

Engine running, increase the engine speed to 1,500 RPM and maintain. With a scan tool, command the Turbocharger Vane Position ON and OFF. The Boost Solenoid Valve Command parameter should increase to 95-97 % when the Turbocharger Vane Position is commanded ON and decrease to near 0 % when commanded OFF.

1. Engine running, command the M91 Boost Pressure Actuator between 0-5 % with a scan tool. You should hear an audible click.
2. Operate the vehicle within the Conditions for Running the DTC to verify the DTC does not reset. You may also operate the vehicle within the conditions that you observed from the Freeze Frame/Failure Records data.

1. Ignition OFF, disconnect the harness connector at the M91 Boost Pressure Actuator.
2. Test for less than 5 Ω between the ground circuit terminal 2 and ground.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, repair the open/high resistance in the ground circuit.

3. Ignition ON, verify that a test lamp illuminates between the ignition voltage circuit terminal 1 and ground.

⇒	If the test lamp does not illuminate, test the ignition voltage circuit for a short to ground or an open/high resistance. If the circuit tests normal and the ignition voltage circuit fuse is open, test all components connected to the ignition 1 voltage circuit and replace as necessary.

4. Test for 3-4 V between the control circuit terminal 4 and ground.

⇒	If less than the specified range, test the control circuit for an open or a short to ground. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.

⇒	If greater than the specified range, test the control circuit for a short to voltage. If the circuit tests normal, replace the K20 Engine Control Module.

5. Connect a test lamp between the control circuit terminal 4 and the ignition voltage circuit terminal 1.
6. Clear the DTC information parameter with a scan tool. Engine running, M91 Boost Pressure Actuator between 5-95 % with a scan tool. The test lamp should illuminate brightly at 5 %, and decrease up to 95 %.

⇒	If the test lamp does not respond to the scan tool commands replace the K20 Engine Control Module.

7. If all circuits test normal, test or replace the turbocharger.
