A wastegated turbo is designed to reach maximum boost sooner then a conventional turbo, but overboosting will cause damage to the turbo. The PCM will control the boost pressure by duty cycle to the solenoid to maximize boosting performance (no more than 16-1/2 psi). When pressure is supplied on the red hose going to the actuator (solenoid NOT energized) the valve will open, dumping boost. When low or no pressure is on the red hose going to the actuator (solenoid is being energized), the valve will stay closed.

DTC P1249 indicates that the PCM detected the turbo was overboosting.

Possible causes:

-- short to ground

-- plugged WGC hose or port

-- WGC solenoid

-- WGC actuator

-- WGC valve

-- damaged PCM

It then sends you different directions depending on what additional codes are present. Each successive test sends you a different direction depending on the results.
