P1287

[Tbird9140]

My 2000 1Tn, 4wd, auto with 340K just started giving me the above engine code.  Looking it up, it stands for TURBOCHARGER BYPASS VALVE OPEN.  Does anyone have experience addressing this problem?  Where do I start to identify where the problem is? (Please don't say "Turbocharger" )  Is this likely a minor problem (adjustment or small part replacement) or is this likely a major problem (replacement of the turbo)?  What are the driving symptoms of this problem code?  The truck starts and seems to drive OK even with this check engine light on. (I am not getting any other stored OBDII  codes.)  Any help on how to address the problem would be appreciated.

 

To Moparman1973 as I know that you read all the posts:  My name and address does not seem to appear on the Members map in any form.  Is there a reason for that?  You can reply via "Messages" if you prefer.  Thanks.

That must be a generic code description. If tho to the article section on this site you will discover what it really means.

Now you might understand why I bailed out of Microsoft PCs and went to the Dark Side with Ubuntu & CentOS Linux...
