Signal too low. Permanent fault

Checking components and wiring
Check the signal cable between control module terminal #A23 (#A23) and boost pressure sensor terminal 1. Check for a short-circuit to ground.

Hint: With the ignition on and the boost pressure sensor connector disconnected the voltage between terminal 1 and ground terminal should be approximately 5 V.

Remedy as necessary.
