    What Does p0249 Mean?

    The PCM has detected an abnormal reading in the turbocharger wastegate solenoid “B” circuit. Circuit B represents a particular wastegate solenoid (where multiple solenoids are used in sequence). There is no set rule for positioning of wastegate solenoids. Check manufacturer’s specifications for specific solenoid locations.

    What are the common causes of p0249 ?
    • Rarely - faulty Powertrain Control Module (PCM-programming required after replacement)
    • Rough running engine due to misfiring plugs. Many engines have misfire codes to indicate the cylinder effected, such as P0307 for number 7.
    • A large vacuum leak would cause a massive amount of un-metered air to enter the intake manifold resulting in an overly lean mixture.
    How do you troubleshoot p0249 ?

    Fortunately, this is a fairly simple problem for an experienced mechanic to fix. They’ll do one of the following:
    • Replace or repair any wires that are disconnected or damaged
    • Address any problems with the connectors
    • Inspect the turbocharger boost sensor for any problems that would cause an erroneous code
    • Check to see if resistance and voltage values are consistent with what the manufacturer’s specifications are
