ECU 000103.02 (ECU 103.02)

Code: 000103.02

Shortcode: 103.02

Description:

This error code, ECU 000103.02, indicates that the turbocharger speed signal received by the ECU is invalid or erratic. This fault might be due to issues with the turbocharger speed sensor or its wiring, causing unreliable data transmission to the ECU.

Reaction:

The engine may exhibit reduced performance or enter a limp mode to safeguard the engine and turbocharger from potential damage due to unreliable turbocharger speed readings.

Recommendations:

  • Check Sensor and Wiring: Inspect the turbocharger speed sensor and associated wiring for damage, corrosion, or loose connections.
  • Test Sensor Functionality: Conduct tests to confirm the sensor is operational and providing accurate data. Replace the sensor if it fails the tests.
  • Review ECU Data Logs: Look at the ECU’s data logs to check for intermittent or erratic signal patterns that could indicate deeper electronic issues.
  • Rectify Electrical Issues: Repair or replace any faulty electrical components uncovered during diagnostics.
  • System Reset and Testing: After completing repairs, reset the ECU and perform a comprehensive system test to ensure the issue has been resolved and the turbocharger operates within normal parameters.

Note:

An invalid speed signal often points to electrical issues but can also be influenced by environmental factors like extreme temperatures or contamination. Regular checks and maintenance are recommended to ensure sensor accuracy and reliability.
