weird escos troubles
hi all
i have a weird problem with my escos,
it only revs up to 4000 rpm and only givs about 0.5 bar off boost, what can this be?
sometimes i goes like it should, but after 2 or 3 times i keeps hanging up at 4000 rpm again, its a big turbo cos.
things i was thinking about that could be wrong are
-ECU
-Chip( getting another one this week)
-actuator
-vacuum leak?
do you have any ideas? or had this yourself?
regards
roy.

I would try swapping sensors first as the ecu is SUPPOSED to do that fault if one of the sensors is down.
Have you got a mate nearby with a working cossie? Get him round and do some swapping!!

I have yes, saw them at landgraaf, 2 years running when I was in germany!!
In that case may as well nick an ecu as thats easiest to change lol!!

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
Roy, since this ecu is in limp home mode, you must be able to read one (or more) troublecodes. So, first thing is to get the codes read. A simple led-tester will do that, but you can also use a star-tester. Then you know which circuit (doesn't have to be the sensor itself, can be wiring loom also) is causing the problems. Saves you a lot of time searching and trying.
Other way of testing is using a break-out-box and checking the signals with a DVOM.
