Monitor "BOOST PRESSURE SENSOR" parameter on the Scantool.
Specification : 1013hpa ± 100hpa(VGT actuator : approx. 70%) at idle
VGT(Variable Geometric Turbocharger) is the device which increases the efficiency of turbocharger at low rpm and lasts optimum turbo efficiency at high rpm as varying the cross sectional area through which exhaust gas passes turbocharger impeller. It relieves turbo lag at low speed and increse engine power generation.Engine speed, APS signal, MAFS and Boost pressure sensor information is inputted to ECM. ECM actuates vacuum diafragm which controls exhaust gas line as controlling VGT actuator duty to maintain optimum state of air compression.
P0299 is set when real boost pressure is much higher than target boost pressure for more than 15 sec. at above 1750RPM and 10~22mg/hub of fuel injection quantity.This code is due to poor connection of VGT solenoid valve vacuum hose, vacuum leakage, clogging, VGT turbo charger component failure.

Connect Scantool to Data Link Connector (DLC).
Warm engine up to normal operating temperature.
Turn "OFF" electrical devices and A/C.
Monitor "BOOST PRESSURE SENSOR" parameter on the Scantool.

Electrical systems consist of a lot of harness and connectors, poor connection of terminals can cause various problems and damge of component.
Perform checking procedure as follows.
Check damage of harness and terminals : Check terminals for contact resistance, corrosion and deformation.
Check connecting condition of ECM and component connector : Check terminal seperation, damage of locking device and connecting condition between terminal and wiring.
Disconnect the pin which requires checking at male connector and insert it to the terminal at female connector or checking connecting condition. ( after checking, reconnect the pin at correct position. )
Is the problem found?
▶ Repair the trouble causing part and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair".
▶ Go to "Component Inspection".
Check VGT actuator component resistance
IG KEY "OFF", ENGINE "OFF"
Disconnect VGT actuator connector.
Measure the resistance between VGT actuator component terminal 1 and 2.
Specification : 14.7 ~ 16.1Ω (20℃)
Is VGT actuator component resistance within the specification?
▶ Go to "2.Check VGT actuator operation" as follows.
▶ Replace VGT actuator and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair".
Check VGT actuator operation
IG KEY "ON", ENGINE "ON".
Check that VGT actuator operating duty is 76% after warming engine up.
Check if vacuum generates after disconnecting VGT valve vacuum hose.
Check if vacuum generates when decelerating after rapid acceleration (Vacuum must not generates, correct VGT actuator operating duty is 45%).
Specification : VGT actuator duty 76% : vacuum generates
VGT actuator duty 45% : vacuum does not generate
Does vacuum state changes correctly depending on the change of VGT actuator operating duty?
▶ Go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair".
▶ Replace VGT actuator and go to "Verification of Vehicle Repair".
※ Repeat this process 2~3 times.
After a repair, it is essential to verify that the fault is corrected.
After connecting Scantool select "DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES(DTCs)" mode.
Clear recorded DTC using Scantool.
Drive the vehicle within DTC "Enable conditions" in "General information".
After selecting "DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES(DTCs)" mode and check if DTC is recorded again.
Are any DTCs recorded ?
▶ Go to the DTC guide of recorded NO. in Scantool.
▶ System operates within specification.
