Another Engine Malfunction question

Postby ajgelectrical » Mon Apr 05, 2021 3:11 pm

Hi i have a 2013 custom, 189k miles. I have the engine malfunction light on and the traction control warning light On, engine is in limp mode.
I did buy a code finder and came up with p0046, p0047, p0048.
Looked at the actuator and when i rev the engine the lever does not move, when engine is off i cannot move it manually.
Any ideas please, could it be the actuator? Can i put a meter on plug to see if im getting a voltage to the actuator to check for wiring issues?
Will this do any damage if i keep using the van until i can get it sorted?

no not sorted, warning lights keeps coming on and off, nearly every 30 seconds though, sometimes turbo works even if the engine warning light is on, but if the traction control light is on or engine malfunction happens to be on then turbo doesnt.
not sure if its the actuator on side of turbo or possibly a bad connection, going to get someone else to look who's a bit(a lot) more knowledgeable then me.

i think ive sorted it, i changed the turbo actuator and just taken it out for a test and all seems good at the moment, got mine from Amazon which came from Turbo Vanes. so touch wood all good.
