in tthis video I'm gonna share with you how to test a turbo Actuator on a Sprinter Van, Limp Mode Diagnosis ! #turbo #diesel #dieselengine #sprintervan #sprinter #actuator
I have a 2013 Mercedes sprinter and I have a problem starting the vehicle only in the morning especially in the cold/winter? It takes 20ish seconds of turning the key for it to turn on. Do you have any solutions?
Hello. nice video, good explanation. but I have one question, is it necessary to perform a calibration when changing the actuator? thanks for the reply. I apologize, my English is not the best.
Thank you for the video. At one time, both Jeep and Mercedes insisted that the actuator and turbo had to be replaced together. What nonsense that turned out to be. A simple test if someone has no access to test equipment is to cycle the ignition. The actuator arm should move. I love the sprinter videos as my jeep has the same engine.
Thank you for an excellent tutorial, please post more, i can't understand why there is an additional 'Earth' from the ecu when it has a live and a ground already ? 🤔
I am not sure this is a good test, the snail gear in these can get stuck very easily if power is supplied to them for more then half a second. So if you do this test on a good one you will very likely have a jammed one once the test is done.
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair very possible they have upgraded the design since I last tested. I have noticed differences in the chips they use for these. ultimately the only one I tested this way jammed up at the top of the snail gear. Id' check one of your bad units to see if it isn't jammed.
Hello my friend, i come back to you about my 2359-002 low boost pressure fault code, i checked the pressure circuit with a mercedes tool, and didn’t find some leaks anywhere 😢 So, i have yet this damn fault code ! Please help me, At the beginning, i had the both fault code 2510 and 2359 -002 I changed the actuator and the 2359-002 still remain 😢 When i stop the vito and restart the safe mode disappear It come back when i’m on a climb Many thanks Vito 120 cdi v6 engine
Unfortunately i checked with the original tool Mercedes and there’s no leak What do you think about the turbo charger ? Not from the actuator but the turbo himself Like a oil leak at the cartridge ? I’m sorry i’m french and sometime i don’t know what that mean some words like ‘induction system ‘do you have a picture about that part ? Thanks again👍👍👍
Hello my friend ! Hope you’re good… About my 2359 002 fault code, A guys who work to mercedes tell me that’s for sure it’s the geometry blocked, sometime yes sometimes no..and je say that i have to change the turbocharger complete What do you think ? Many thanks 🙏
I appreciate your video, you showed a lot on electrical trouble shooting in this one video. I think basically if a component has a key switch on with hot and ground the other wire is the control wire. If it only has 3 wires. So thank you, I had a bad actuator on 2006 sprinter turbo.
Bro, may I please ask you to always show the total number of modules in the vehicle via your scan tool, much appreciated, you do mostly do this. THUMBS UP
I have a 2008 2.1 4cyl 315cdi. I got codes p0243 Wastegate actuator A and P0299 Turbo/Supercharger A Underboost condition. I found 2 vacuum regulators or solenoids under the hood pass. side. One of them looks old one looks new also when i turn the key over to contact the actuator lever doesnt move.... i have no money to fix this any advice i would greatly appreciate it from all of u guys.
@thabrooklynfellah it's hard for me to tell you what's wrong with it, you might have a broken vacuum line, a bad transducer, a bad actuator etc... I recommend you take it to a pro mechanic who can diagnose it for you!
Hi Sir. My Turbo actuator is not working, I have ordered a new one and I ordered a new Swirl Flap motor as well. The weird thing is that I am seeing a P2015 code, and the actuator is non responsive when engine turns on. Very strange situation.
hi, i have check all you video about the actuator, but not find solution to my problem, when the sprinter key off the actuator go full open(95%), when the engine run the actuator go to 5% full close, when driving the sprinter the actuator stay close (5% open), i use an autel to scanner to read live data, how can i test if the actuator or ECU is defective? Thank for your good job
Can you please do a video on the wastegate actuator A for 4 cyl that have the boost regulater if u ever have a chance. P0243 and p0299. Top speed is 100km flat. Uphill loses power tremendously 20 dollar code scanner
You are a great video maker. And very knowledgeable. I lost power to my 2008 3.0 Sprinter this weekend. I will now test the actuator thanks to your kind and informative video. But how can I know if it is the EGR system or the turbo Boost pressure sensor is the problem? I checked all the turbo lines and pipes and everything looks good. And resonator is good. Please advise. I really need to fix my van pronto.
@andko00201 cycle the ignition key on and off and the actuator arm should move if it doesn't your actuator might be bad! an EGR Valve that's sticking open would cause the vehicle to stall at idle, disconnect the EGR electrical connector and see what happens, if it stops then that's your problem!
The actuator moved and I unplugged the EGR and the van still ran. Then I checked the codes and now I got po100,po110, and po107. Do you have videos on that? Please help. I must go somewhere important tomorrow. You are appreciated Highly. @@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair
Hello my friend ! here is a real tutorial,….I have a Vito WDF 639, 603 135, 787, 32. of the year 2010 Engines, om 642 - V6 - 3L….I have the same model as yours that you dismantled.. with 3 Wire connection. the new actuator from the brand “NAPA” that you presented, seems to me to be of quality!. Do you have the address of the e-commerce site to purchase. I am in Normandy - France. Dear friend ! thank you very much for your answer . by Gérard Montérin.
@@KITS_Auto_and_Truck_Repair …..Hello my friends ! I went to the site in question, I did not see the ACTUATOR, offered for sale? . I will go back and look, in the meantime I saw actuators for sale on eBay. most of it is mad-in-china. the prices are: 60€ to 170€…… I don’t have confidence in the quality? So, I keep looking. cordially Yours from Gérard M.
Réponse a mes recherches !: j’ai en vue 2 fabricants en chine . Atelier très technique vue en vidéos . 1 chinois est en Europe en Allemagne = vente rapide direct . L’autre est en chine , il y a les taxes a calculé . Ce qu’il faut savoir avant décision . Les fabricants propose la vente de la base de l’actuator- actionneur , = les mécanismes , rouages et moteur . L’étage supérieur = électronique dans le couvercle n’est pas proposé . D’autres fabricant propose le tout complet = objet contrôler et fermé . Ce que je remarque pour mon vito Mercedes , les pannes ont commencé il y a 1 ans . Le fusible 16 amp grille .et panne de turbo et autres accessoires . Conclusion : beaucoup de vibration et de chaleur , endommage les circuits et soudure sur platine électronique . Donc il faut remplacé l’ensemble et resté dans la norme du constructeur . Ont peu bricolé : re soudé trop fort pour duré , n’est pas un bon plan . Answer to my research!: I saw 2 manufacturers in China. Very technical workshop seen in videos. 1 Chinese is in Europe in Germany = fast direct sale. The other is in China, there are taxes calculated. What you need to know before making a decision. The manufacturers offer the sale of the base of the actuator-actuator, = the mechanisms, cogs and motor. The upper stage = electronics in the cover is not offered. Other manufacturers offer the whole thing = object checked and closed. What I notice for my Mercedes vito, the breakdowns started 1 year ago. The 16 amp fuse blows and turbo and other accessories fail. Conclusion: a lot of vibration and heat from the turbo clogged on the blades and the heat from the V6, damages the circuits and soldering on the electronic board. So the whole thing must be replaced and kept within the manufacturer's standard. Did a little tinkering: re-welded too hard to last, not a good plan. It is with a short time that other problems of electronic failure arise. here is my conclusion. I am waiting for the response and a complete offer.
Hello, I hope you are doing well in your new shop, I love your videos, you have helped me fix my van many times, and now a have a question, my 2008 dodge sprinter 3.0 turbocharge has so much pressure on the exhaust, when I put my hand I can feel the pressure, I checked with another van and his is not like mine, the RPM at at 900 on idle same as my friends, what do you think it could be the problem?
Do vacuum type actuator that's on w906 have to be calibrated? Could that prompt p0249 wastegate actuator a and p0299 underboost???? Or could it be bad vacuum regulators. And please answer me this man should there be 2 of these regulators or 1? Cause I have 2😶. 2008 2.1 4cyl
What do you think about otofix d1 pro diag tool ? Good vidéo very pertinent for turbo acuator and Good other vidéo your are à great profesional thank for rep of diag tool question
Hi my is samuel I am learning mechanic through RU-vid I am following your RU-vid channel I love the way you work I do understand your work every well thank you.
