as long as the tune is set to stock i have no code. but if i tune it the code pops up. i was just wondering if the tune pushes the boost up and the wastegate is just going bad and wont work at the higher setting

KH5 DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE P1249 — CHECK KOEO FOR P1690
  • DTC P1249 indicates that the PCM detected the turbo was overboosting.
  • Possible causes:
    • short to ground
    • plugged WGC hose or port
    • WGC solenoid
    • WGC actuator
    • WGC valve
    • damaged PCM
  • Perform KOEO On-Demand Self Test.
Is DTC P1690 present?

Next step....



KH6 CHECK WGC HOSES
  • Disconnect the RED hose from the WGC actuator.
  • Install Gauge Bar 014-00760 vacuum pump or equivalent to the hose.
Does the hose hold vacuum?

When I was running the Hypertech I used to get that code all the time. When I switched to a DP tuner it no longer comes up instead I get a code p1211 all the time. It show up usually after I have my foot in it.
