Cummins Turbo Actuator

Actuators are an important component of a variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) as they dynamically adjust the vanes of a VGT to control the turbo’s boost output.  Cummins is a trusted manufacturer of diesel turbochargers primarily for their ISB 6.7L and ISC engines and they offer a range of actuators for their different engine models.  If the actuator on your Cummins turbocharger has failed, it is very important to have the actuator replaced.

At HD Turbo, we provide Cummins turbo actuator replacements for a variety of Cummins engine models, including the 6.7 Cummins turbo actuator.  Our remanufactured Cummins VGT actuators are a reliable replacement when your Cummins turbo actuator fails.  You can expect our Cummins VGT actuator replacements to meet or exceed OEM specifications.

What Causes Cummins Turbo Actuator Failure?

The actuator is crucial for the performance of a Cummins VGT as they control the turbo’s boost by increasing and restricting the amount of exhaust gases that enter the turbo.  If the actuator fails, the turbo will not function properly which will decrease the efficiency and power of the engine.

The following are the signs of a failing Cummins turbo actuator:

• Low boost
• Intermittent low pressure
• Complete power loss
• Sudden stopping of the turbocharger
• Inconsistent turbo performance
• Turbocharger kicks in at low speeds
• ECU errors and fault codes
