03 sprinter 3500 148” high top.
I’ve inspected all my hoses, I have a new turbo a year ago 10k miles.. new boost converter new vac hoses. Even replaced my boost converter cuz I thought it was it again but no. My vane actuator moves freely, when I pinch the lower hose coming off my boost converter the linkage pulls down. It seems as if my converter is “making” vacuum but not enough to pull the vane actuator down. Vane actuator does Not move on start-up. The van will go thru all gears and I’m not limited to speed or rpm. My map stays at around 14 unless I get up in rpm but never reaches above 17.xx my air intake sensor is reading what the air outside would likely be minus some degrees as the intercooler is doing its job. Cleaned my maf as well, if I unplug my maf I’ll throw a code so I don’t believe it’s that. I also cleaned my egr. Was thinking of blocking it off to see if that helps...
I’ve also replaced my fuel filter and air filter.
I had boost for a year then all a sudden nothing. No cel. I do not have access to a sprinter specific scanner and the dealer near me cannot help as all their techs are too young to work on my rig.
Can someone point me to the thread with a how to on checking the brake lights and brake switch(my lights do work)
Any and all help is Greatly appreciated as this is my work van and it makes for a long day everyday driving around like a turtle.
I’m in southwest Michigan if there is anyone in my neck of the woods ie near the beach.
