Engine Control System (4JH1) 6E-111
DTC P0243 (Symptom Code 4) (Flash Code 64)
Circuit Description
The engine control module (ECM) controls the
turbocharger wastegate valve based on the barometric
pressure in order to reduce turbocharger spinning
speeds at high altitude area. The ECM controls the
turbocharger wastegate valve diaphragm by acting the
regulated vacuum pressure via controlling the solenoid
valve. The vacuum pressure sensor monitors the
regulated vacuum pressure to the turbocharge
r
wastegate valve. The ECM calculates desired vacuum
pressure and it compares the calculated desired
vacuum pressure to the actual value to determine the
solenoid valve position. W hen the actual vacuum
pressure is higher than the desired value, the solenoid
valve is closed to decrease the vacuum pressure. If the
ECM detects that an open circuit or short to ground on
the turbocharger solenoid valve control circuit, this DTC
will set.
Condition for Running the DTC
• The ignition switch is ON.
Condition for Setting the DTC
• The ECM detects that the low voltage condition on
the turbocharger solenoid valve control circuit fo
r
longer than 3 seconds when the solenoid valve is
commanded OFF.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
• The ECM illuminates the malfunction indicato
r
lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.
• The ECM limits fuel injection quantity.
• The ECM uses a turbocharger solenoid valve
control substitution of 68%.
• The ECM uses an EGR solenoid valve control
substitution of 10%.
Condition for Clearing the MIL/DTC
• The ECM turns OFF the MIL when the diagnostic
runs and does not fail.
• A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive driving
cycles without a fault. Or clear with the scan tool.
Diagnostic Aids
• If an intermittent condition is suspected, refer to
Intermittent Conditions in this section.

DTC P0243 (Symptom Code 5) (Flash Code 64)
Circuit Description
The engine control module (ECM) controls the
turbocharger wastegate valve based on the barometric
pressure in order to reduce turbocharger spinning
speeds at high altitude area. The ECM controls the
turbocharger wastegate valve diaphragm by acting the
regulated vacuum pressure via controlling the solenoid
valve. The vacuum pressure sensor monitors the
regulated vacuum pressure to the turbocharge
r
wastegate valve. The ECM calculates desired vacuum
pressure and it compares the calculated desired
vacuum pressure to the actual value to determine the
solenoid valve position. W hen the actual vacuum
pressure is higher than the desired value, the solenoid
valve is closed to decrease the vacuum pressure. An
expected vacuum pressure amount should be detected
while the engine running. If the ECM detects the actual
vacuum pressure amount is lower than desired vacuum
pressure amount, this DTC will set.
Condition for Running the DTC
• The ignition switch is ON.
• The barometric pressure (BARO) is between 0
hPa and 3500 hPa.
• The intake air temperature (IAT) is between -50°C
(-58 °F) and 200°C (392°F).
• The engine coolant temperature (ECT) is between
-50°C (-58 °F) and 150°C (302°F)
Condition for Setting the DTC
• The ECM detects that the vacuum pressure is 50
hPa lower than the desired vacuum pressure for 3
seconds. This indicates excessive low vacuum
pressure.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets
• The ECM illuminates the malfunction indicato
r
lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.
• The ECM limits fuel injection quantity.
• The ECM uses an EGR solenoid valve control
substitution of 10%.
Condition for Clearing the MIL/DTC
• The ECM turns OFF the MIL when the diagnostic
runs and does not fail.
• A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive driving
cycles without a fault. Or clear with the scan tool.
Diagnostic Aids

a low pressure) can set this DTC. The Vacuum
Pressure on the scan tool should read near doubled
barometric pressure (BARO) with the key ON and
engine OFF.
5. A skewed BARO sensor value (shifted to a highe
r
pressure) may set this DTC. The BARO on the scan
tool should read near surrounding barometric pressure.

DTC P0243 (Symptom Code 6) (Flash Code 64)
Circuit Description
The engine control module (ECM) controls the
turbocharger wastegate valve based on the barometric
pressure in order to reduce turbocharger spinning
speeds at high altitude area. The ECM controls the
turbocharger wastegate valve diaphragm by acting the
regulated vacuum pressure via controlling the solenoid
valve. The vacuum pressure sensor monitors the
regulated vacuum pressure to the turbocharge
r
wastegate valve. The ECM calculates desired vacuum
pressure and it compares the calculated desired
vacuum pressure to the actual value to determine the
solenoid valve position. W hen the actual vacuum
pressure is higher than the desired value, the solenoid
valve is closed to decrease the vacuum pressure.
The mass air flow (MAF) sensor monitors boost
pressure by monitoring the amount of mass air flow. An
expected MAF amount should be detected while the
engine running. If the ECM detects the actual MAF
amount is higher than desired MAF amount, this DTC
will set. This indicates excessive high boost pressure
and turbocharger wastegate valve most likely did not
active.
Condition for Running the DTC
• The ignition switch is ON.
• The engine coolant temperature (ECT) is between
-50°C (-58 °F) and 150°C (302°F).
• The EGR solenoid valve control is OFF.
• The MAF sensor DTC P0100 is not set.
• The vacuum pressure sensor DTC P0105 is not
set.
• The intake air temperature (IAT) sensor DTC
P0110 is not set.
Condition for Setting the DTC
• The ECM detects that the MAF amount is 56
mg/strk higher than the desired MAF for 3
seconds. This indicates an excessive high boost
pressure.
Action Taken When the DTC Sets

• The ECM illuminates the malfunction indicato
r
lamp (MIL) when the diagnostic runs and fails.
• The ECM limits fuel injection quantity.
• The ECM uses an EGR solenoid valve control
substitution of 10%.
Condition for Clearing the MIL/DTC
• The ECM turns OFF the MIL when the diagnostic
runs and does not fail.
• A history DTC clears after 40 consecutive driving
cycles without a fault. Or clear with the scan tool.
Diagnostic Aids
• If an intermittent condition is suspected, refer to
Intermittent Conditions in this section.
• Check the wastegate for a sticking or stuck
condition. Refer to W astegate Operation in the
Engine Mechanical section.
• Use the scan tool to verify the integrity of the MAF
sensor signal. Compare the sensor values unde
r
all load conditions for an excessively high value.
Use the scan tool data list values for nominal
sensor readings.
• The fuel with which gasoline was mixed may set
this DTC.
• A sticking or intermittently sticking the EGR valve
may set this DTC.
• Misrouted vacuum hoses may set this DTC.
