What is MID 58 & How to Solve It?

What is MID 58:

MID 58 refers to a problem with the Turbocharger Boost Pressure Sensor Circuit. The ECM detects an invalid signal from the sensor, affecting turbo boost pressure regulation and leading to poor engine performance or reduced fuel efficiency.

‍

Why This Happens:

• Faulty turbocharger boost pressure sensor.
  
• Shorted or damaged wiring in the sensor circuit.
  
• Loose or corroded sensor connectors.
  
• Malfunctioning turbocharger affecting boost pressure.
  
• ECM misinterpreting the sensor’s signal.
  
  

How to Fix It:

1. Inspect the turbocharger boost pressure sensor for visible damage or malfunction.
   
2. Test the sensor’s voltage and resistance to ensure proper functionality.
   
3. Check wiring and connectors for visible damage or corrosion.
   
4. Replace the faulty sensor if necessary.
   
5. Inspect the turbocharger system for issues affecting boost pressure.
   
   

How to Avoid It Before It Happens:

• Regularly inspect the turbocharger boost pressure sensor and wiring.
  
• Perform routine maintenance on the turbocharger system.
  
• Keep connectors clean and free from corrosion.
  
• Perform diagnostic checks to monitor turbo sytem health.
  
• Clue’s Equipment Maintenance services track turbocharger systems and prevent issues before they affect engine operation.
