Wastegate and P1249 code
I noticed, on the Autoengenuity Help link, that the wastegate is supposed to be near 0 when idling. Watching on my AE screen, mine stays around 87% at idle and goes down when I get on it. I get a consistent P1249 and this may be the reason why. I have followed the diagnostics checks for the wastegate and have found nothing wrong. Anyone know where the wastegate duty cycle value is generated. Is it internal in the PCM or a sensor somewhere. I am leaning toward a bad PCM but want to make sure before I condemn it. Other than the code the truck runs and performs fine.

From the service manual:
When pressure is supplied on the red hose going to the actuator (solenoid NOT energized (0%)) the valve will open, dumping boost. When low or no pressure is on the red hose going to the actuator (solenoid is being energized (99%)), the valve will stay closed.
The PCM commands duty cycle based on MAP readings compared to BARO readings to determine boost (Manifold Gauge Pressure in AE)
