7.3 DSL problems HELP

Post by cravenbronco »

I have a PO236 code popping up.
Now the code says it is a TURBO BOOST SENSOR A CIRC PERF.
Since this code came up I have a significant loss of power. Does anyone know what sensor A is?
Any ideas ?

Did your boost levels drop significantly?

P0236 trips when you run over what the computer believes is reasonable boost. Been putting the pedal to it lately?

Loss of power might be a result of a torn boot on your air cooler pipes or spider. Also, check the firewall behind the turbo for excess soot.
