102 02 – Boost Pressure Sensor Data Erratic Fault

Perform the following steps to troubleshoot a boost pressure sensor data erratic fault:‪

1. Check for additional active fault codes.
   1. If fault code 233 12 is active in addition to fault code 102 02, refer to "28.2.1 233 12 – PLD-MR Failed or Programmed Incorrectly" .
   2. If only fault code 102 02 is active, go to step 2 .
2. Measure turbo boost pressure with the engine running. Stop the engine and compare with atmospheric pressure.
   1. If boost pressure is within the acceptable range, check and clean the combination sensor contacts (remove any corrosion). Erase fault code memory.
   2. If boost pressure is not within the acceptable range, go to step 3 .
3. Bridge pins 1 and 3 of the combination sensor. See Figure "Turbo Boost Air Combination Sensor" , and see Figure "Location of Boost Air Combination Sensor Harness Wires" .
   1. If new fault code 102 04 is active after bridging pins, replace the sensor. Erase fault code memory.
