Q: What does code P2B82 mean?

Wastegate Position Sensor B Circuit Performance. P2B82 indicates that the powertrain control module has detected an out-of-range or implausible signal from the wastegate position sensor B circuit, which monitors the turbocharger wastegate valve position. The computer compares the sensor voltage against expected values for the commanded boost level and flags a performance fault when the signal does not correlate with the actual wastegate position.
