Today I was doing a little stage zero and was replacing the cbv and all vacuum lines that come from the tcv. While I was at it I was going to set my wastegate actuator at 3.7 psi for an ARD Orange Tune. When I applied pressure to the actuator via an hand vacuum pump, I noticed the rod from the actuator was not moving. I sprayed the rod with pblaster at the actuator, but if that does nothing I assume I will need to replace the actuator.

Does this sound correct? I'm fairly new to turbos/volvos in general, my thinking is the wastegate never opens since the actuator is stuck thus leading to overboosting.

Is there anything else I should do/check while replacing the actuator?
