Ok so my diesel and turbo knowledge is limited, I'm learning as I go.

Today I removed the egr cooler and did the ****** plates. Egr was already tuned out a yr and half ago. Got finished and went for a drive to check leaks and it's not building near the boost. I could hit 30psi before and now lucky to hit 22. Very slow to build.

My livewire reads a -.75 at idle now, before it was around 0.

I looked and there is a yellow tip connector with like 2 prongs that I might of knocked loose but I cant find where it goes. Could that be it? It is right by where the rear of the cooler was, I dont know does it maybe go to the turbo somehow?

Ok so I guess that may be the vgt sensor? **** I didn't even know about unplugging that lol! Guess its good thing it didnt break.


So where does it go? I've looked and cant see where it goes? Couldn't really find a pic with a quick search either.

Any help is greatly appreciated guys!

It plugs into the turbo on the lassenger side, right around the middle of the turbo. Get a mirror, and you'll be able to see the vgt actuator where it plugs into
