1badtgp Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 On a TGP when you pull the codes, isnt this the overboost code? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
god910 Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 From GNTTYPE.org CODE 31 Trouble Code 31 indicates that the Wastegate Solenoid may not be functioning correctly. The wastegate solenoid is controlled by a Pulse Width Modulated (PWM) signal from the ECM. The ECM controls turbo boost by varying the PWM waveform (duty cycle) to the wastegate. The wastegate responds by bleeding off exhaust pressure upstream of the turbine, thus controlling boost pressure. The conditions for setting this code are: the ECM is commanding a solenoid duty cycle of between 5% and 94%, and no electrical feedback is being received from the solenoid, and the above conditions are met for 2 seconds. Typical causes for this code include: 1) Poor or corroded connections between the ECM and the wastegate solenoid 2) Open or shorted solenoid 3) Defective, sticking or maladjusted wastegate linkage 4) Defective ECM Ensure correct operation of other engine subsystems, including but not limited to the TPS and MAF sensors and check the wastegate actuation hardware. And from troublecodes.net 31 High turbo pressure (87 - 88 ) Jimsperformance.com (whoever the hell THAT guys is ) 31 Manifold Absolute Pressure (MAP) Sensor - signal voltage is low OR Fuel injector OR CAM diagnostic OR Governor Malfunction OR Wastegate overboost OR Wastegate Eletrical Signal - open or shorted to ground Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1badtgp Posted August 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 Thanks! That was the only noe i couldnt find, but right before I did the diagnosis I did overboost the car, so that explains that one(vacuum line poped off wastegate).
