Do you have a gauge system where you can monitor parameters like EBP, MAP, BARO?

What DTC # was it ? A gauge would be helpful like Bizmic has said, have you Inspected the CAC boots for splits ? MAP hose too, you can pull the Threaded Nipple at the Intake and clean up the soot build up the little hole gets clogged.

Being 10 years old with 55k miles more than likely the vanes are stuck.

Check the EBP and tube, pull the tube and make sure its free flowing, the sensor just make sure the little hole is not blocked , you can also have some one tap on the sensor while you watch the Scan Gauge on EBP if it jumps around then change sensor out.

EBP sensor will not be used if he has the latest flash for a 04 engine.

Early 04 yes the reading is inferred, late 04 it uses EBP.

Either way... Vanes are stuck.
