P1227 Subaru Wastegate Failed Closed (Over Pressure)

P1227 Subaru Wastegate Failed Closed (Over Pressure)

Possible causes
  • Harness or connectors (The APP sensor 2 circuit is open or shorted.)
  • Accelerator pedal position sensor (Accelerator pedal position sensor 2)
    • What about the obd code?
  • An excessively low voltage from the APP sensor 2 is sent to ECM.
    • Symptoms
    – Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
    P1227 Subaru Description

    The accelerator pedal position sensor is installed on the upper end of the accelerator pedal assembly. The sensor detects the accelerator position and sends a signal to the ECM.

    Accelerator pedal position sensor has two sensors. These sensors are a kind of potentiometers which transform the accelerator pedal position into output voltage, and emit the voltage signal to the ECM. In addition, these sensors detect the opening and closing speed of the accelerator pedal and feed the voltage signals to the ECM. The ECM judges the current opening angle of the accelerator pedal from these signals and controls the throttle control motor based on these signals.

    Idle position of the accelerator pedal is determined by the ECM receiving the signal from the accelerator pedal position sensor. The ECM uses this signal for the engine operation such as fuel cut.
