Ford Transit · 2015–2024
The Ford Transit 350/350 HD with the 3.5L EcoBoost twin-turbocharged V6 experiences turbocharger failures from inadequate lubrication, carbon buildup in the turbo housings, wastegate actuator failure, and turbo bearing wear.
Common Symptoms
- Loss of power or reduced boost
- Excessive turbo lag (slow boost response)
- Whistling, whining, or grinding noise from turbo area
- Excessive blue or black smoke from exhaust

Frequently asked questions
What does P0237 mean?
P0237 stands for "Turbocharger Boost Sensor A Circuit Low." This code sets when the turbocharger (or supercharger) boost pressure sensor 'A' reports a voltage that's lower than its normal operating range. That sensor measures how much boost the engine is producing so the computer can correctly control fueling, timing, and the wastegate. A signal that's too low usually means a wiring fault, short to ground, or a failed sensor rather than an actual loss of boost, and the engine may run with reduced power for protection. It generally points to a problem in the sensor or its circuit.
What are the most common causes of P0237?
The most common causes of P0237 are: Faulty turbocharger boost pressure sensor, Signal wire shorted to ground, Open in the sensor signal or reference voltage wire, Corroded or damaged sensor connector, Loss of 5-volt reference from the ECM/PCM, Disconnected boost pressure reference hose. The specific cause varies by vehicle.
How much does it cost to fix P0237?
Repair costs for P0237 range from $1,200 to $3,500, depending on the vehicle and root cause.
