Showing boost at idle?

[Oscarthecat]

Hi all. As far as I am aware, the boost guage should be sitting at 0.0 when at idle. Mine is showing around 0.5. Could this be the transducer wiring needing a clean or possibly the wastegate sticking? I didn't want to start digging around and possibly making matters worse without asking advice first. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks

There should be no reading on the boost gauge when the car is stationary with the engine running. Only when you floor it when moving

First thing to check is the boost transducer connections. And check that the earthing point is good and clean

Have a look here....http://wikilec.com/view/Boost_gauge_problem

It should be an easy fix

Thanks. I figured that was the most likely issue. All sorted now!
