Code: P1690 - Wastegate Solenoid

You can also unplug the IPC sensor on the drivers side cylinder head to see if it runs any better. It will set your SES light but that will go out after you plug it back in.
May you could post up a video of it running. If not you can text/email it to me and I'll post it for you. 406-939-0177 cell, paulzumpf@yahoo.com email.

Wastegate solenoid
The waste gate will not cause a rough running engine.
There is a large wire harness running over the valve cover on the driver's side. It leads to a 42pin connector. Those wires have a tendency to rub through where they pass over the valve cover.
Let us know what you find there.

I’m having a similar problem with the wastegate solenoid as well. I did crank it a few turns a while back but after installing my ts chip and having it on for a while, if you push the truck too hard it used to show “over boost” but wouldn’t go past 15 psi. Any thoughts?

If your MAP is reading correctly, I would ask how old your tunes are. If the tuning is more than ten years old, pull the chip and have it updated. Some of the old tunes would set an over post code without defueling. I'm talking 15-20 year old tunes. Also tuning has improved making them safer for your engine.

15 psi seems to low to be getting a code.
Definitely add this to your list of mods. It will protect your MAP sensor.

Tunes
What are you using to monitor boost? If you are using a gauge, use your scan tool to make sure the MAP sensor and gauge readings are very close to the same. This sounds like a MAP sensor issue. Remember that the MAP sensor reads absolute pressure so you can either set your scan tool to read gauge pressure or just subtract atmospheric pressure.

I use an SCT livewire programmer to monitor everything and found out today that my exhaust back pressure line is clogged with a bunch of what I think is soot.
