Hi all-been eliminating the different causes as to why I'm stuck in base boost, and wondered if anyone can add to this list of possible causes. Here's what I've checked/know:
APC-assured from a very reliable source that it was 100% good in his car 4 days before I tried it, so this seems UNLIKELY to be the cause, but possible.
Wastegate rod popped off-checked, it's fine
Brake light bulb failure/dodgy connection-checked, all light up when braking, and no warnings on display. Without a display warning is it possible something could be wrong?
Cruise control-a possibility. Mine has never worked on the car, and apparently cruise issues can cause the car to go into base boost, but what do you do if it does? How do I disconnect the cruise/fix this? Will I need to trace the fault in my cruise and fix that and then risk that not even being the cause? Because I don't want to mess around sorting it if that's not the fault, I never used it on my old one anyway.
What else? Currently I'm assuming the wastegate is ok, the brake lights are fine and the APC is ok. So it's possible it's the cruise, but I'm sure there are other things that can cause it. I know there are Saab master technicians etc on here who must have a complete list of all the things that will set the ECU off.
