Got my AE and a code.. Need help please..

Newbie with questions alert!

Ordered the AE / Ford bundle from Riffraff, installed last night, and had my first session with the truck this morning.. Very cool.. So glad you all recommended it.

Ran my codes, saved them, cleared them and ran them again..Only one came back after clearing: P1690 Wastegate Solenoid Circuit.

(2002 F250SD 7.3 308K miles bare-bones-stock)


I have searched the forum for that code and can’t seem to find anything pointing to what to check or a solution. Can anyone suggest where I should start and what might be the issue? Thanks!

Is the pressure hose still connected at the spider and at the wastegate actuator? With KOEO you should have 10.5V at pin2 on the WGC harness.

Problem was the interface between the steering wheel and the headrest... .... someone (?) left a connector off when he was working on his truck last weekend...

Now I need to figure out how to do the injector buzz test....
