Hi all,
Apologies, this code has shown up in this forum several times from my searching, but haven't been able to find any conclusive answers for what I'm experiencing.
I got a CEL a few days ago and after a scan, it's throwing a P048C, for the exhaust pressure control valve. I've since taken it off, and was able to manually open an close the flap. I have connected the wire to the valve while disconnected from the exhaust, and can visually see the flap opening and closing (at least when I shut off the car - maybe significant?). So the flap isn't stuck at all, and the electronics seem to be working.
Is there potentially an issue with the electronics sending a wrong signal? Could there be something else (not the valve) where the electronics could be reading the wrong signal?
Much appreciated.
