What does code P2B70 mean?

Q: What does code P2B70 mean?

Turbocharger/Supercharger A Temperature Sensor Circuit High. P2B70 indicates that the powertrain control module has detected an abnormally high voltage signal from the temperature sensor circuit for turbocharger or supercharger A. The sensor is responsible for reporting the temperature of the forced-induction system, and a high voltage typically means the circuit is open, shorted to voltage, or the sensor element has failed in a way that drives the signal above the expected range.
