  • 0
  • 0

Hi, I have a Volkswagen Polo 1.4 TDI BWB engine 2008 model. Yellow glow plug light is blinking time to time. I’ve scanned DTCs with an OBD scanner which I bought from Biltema in the Norway. I am not sure if it shows me the correct fault code since it’s cheap and non-branded device but that’s the only thing I can diagnose my car with it now. I am looking for some advices which can guide me to solve this issue. Thanks in advance.

    I’ve had same issue with my car. I asked for help on some forums online such as tdiclub – https://forums.tdiclub.com/index.php?threads/polo-9n3-p0245-turbocharger-wastegate-actuator-a-low.537747/
    Someone has recommended me the following Ross-Tech’s recommendations here https://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/16629/P0245/000581

    Possible Causes

    • Fuse(s) faulty
    • Engine Electronics Power Supply Relay (J757) faulty
    • Boost Pressure Control Valve (N75) faulty
    • Wiring/Connectors from/to Boost Pressure Control Valve (N75) faulty

    I’ve checked everything on this list but it didn’t help me to solve my problem. Then I focused more on wiring since i was kinda sure that sensors and other companents were working well. So I just found the wiring diagram for Turbocharger wastegate actuator and checked every wires on the diagram.
    At the end I figured out that wires were demaged on intake air temperature, boost pressure and crankshaft sensors but OBD device showing me fault about turbocharger. All faults were gone when I repaired broken cables on these sensors.
