This increases the amount of oxygen inside the cylinders, which helps burn the fuel and produce more power.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some modern vehicles use a variable geometry (VGT) turbocharger. Engines with variable geometry turbochargers (like Power Stroke and Duramax) use vanes to control the speed and performance of the turbocharger The VGT turbocharger is operated by the powertrain control module (PCM), which uses the turbocharger boost control position solenoid to monitor the device&rsquo;s vane position, which correlates to boost pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A turbocharger boost control position sensor constantly monitors the turbocharger. If the sensor doesn&rsquo;t send the right signal or sends an abnormal signal to the PCM, the computer will log a P2563 code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"570\" src=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/variable-geometry-duramax-turbo-diagram-1024x570.jpg\" alt=\"variable geometry duramax turbo diagram\" class=\"wp-image-80754\" style=\"width:1024px;height:570px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/variable-geometry-duramax-turbo-diagram-1024x570.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/variable-geometry-duramax-turbo-diagram-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/variable-geometry-duramax-turbo-diagram-768x428.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/variable-geometry-duramax-turbo-diagram-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/variable-geometry-duramax-turbo-diagram.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Variable geometry Duramax turbo and vane diagram | Image Source: Richard McCuistian<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Does the P2563 Code Mean?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/blog\/search-obd2-codes-list\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"diagnostic trouble code\">diagnostic trouble code<\/a> (DTC) P2563 stands for &ldquo;Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Circuit Range\/Performance.&rdquo;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also called the &ldquo;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.carparts.com\/turbo-vane-position-sensor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"turbocharger vane position sensor\">turbocharger vane position sensor<\/a>,&rdquo; the turbocharger boost control position sensor measures the vane position, which correlates to the boost pressure, of the variable geometry turbocharger.
