View clean working conditions: CLEAN WORKING CONDITIONS
Prior to repair work, perform a preliminary check to verify the condition. Refer to PRELIMINARY CHECK .
Use only gold-plated terminals when servicing any component with gold-plated electrical harness connector terminals.
For wiring diagrams, component locations, and connector views, Refer to the applicable wiring diagram.
Special tools and workshop equipment required
- Multimeter.
- Wiring diagram.
Test requirements
- The Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) - J623- fuses OK.
- Battery voltage at least 12.5 volts.
- All electrical consumers such as, lights and rear window defroster, switched off.
- On vehicles with automatic transmission, selector lever in position "P" or "N".
- A/C switched off.
- Ground connections between engine/transmission/chassis OK.
- Ignition switched off.
Start diagnosis
-- Remove the engine cover with air filter. Refer to the Repair information.
Checking internal resistance
-- Disconnect the Wastegate Bypass Regulator Valve -N75- electrical harness connector.
-- Using a multimeter, check the Wastegate Bypass Regulator Valve -N75- terminals 1 to 2 for resistance.
Specified value: 12 to 18 Ω (at approx. 20° C)
If the specified value was Not obtained:
-- Replace the Wastegate Bypass Regulator Valve -N75- Refer to the Repair information.
If the specified value was obtained:
Checking Voltage supply
| Wastegate Bypass Regulator Valve -N75- electrical harness connector terminal | Measure to |
|---|---|
| 1 | Ground |
-- Start the engine.
-- Using a multimeter, check the Wastegate Bypass Regulator Valve -N75- electrical harness connector terminal 1 to engine ground.
Specified value: battery voltage.
-- Switch the ignition off.
If the specified value was Not obtained:
-- Check the wiring for a short circuit to ground, high resistance or an open circuit.
-- Check fuse 23 in Fuse Panel B for open and replace if blown.
-- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
-- If necessary, repair the wiring connection.
If the specified value was obtained:
If the manufacturers test box is being used, perform the following step.
-- Install the test box.
If the manufacturers test box is not being used, perform the following step.
-- Remove the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623-.
-- Using a multimeter, check the Wastegate Bypass Regulator Valve -N75- electrical harness connector terminal to the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623- electrical harness connector terminal for an open circuit.

|---|---|
| 2 | 20 |
Specified value: 1.5 Ω max.
If the specified value was Not obtained:
-- Check the wiring for an open or high resistance.
-- Check the electrical harness connector for damage, corrosion, loose or broken terminals.
-- If necessary, repair the faulty wiring connection.
If no malfunction is detected in the wiring and if the voltage supply was OK:
-- Replace the Motronic Engine Control Module (ECM) -J623-. Refer to the Repair information.
-- Install the engine cover with air filter. Refer to the Repair information.
Final procedures
After the repair work, the following work steps must be performed in the following sequence:
- Check the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 03 - READ DTC MEMORY .
- If necessary, erase the DTC memory. Refer to DIAGNOSTIC MODE 04 - ERASE DTC MEMORY .
- If the DTC memory was erased, generate readiness code. Refer to READINESS CODE .
