2024 Lynx Shredder RE Turbo - "Wastegate actuator shorted with ground"

[KTMDirtFace]

My new lynx took a dump on me today. It possibly has something to do with me rolling into a rock 3 weeks ago... but it worked ok for part of today.

Then threw wastegate actuator shorted with ground and went into limp mode. I managed to limp it back to the truck and push it onto the sled deck ( wouldn't drive up under its own power without some push help )

I pulled the hood and panels out on the trail and didn't see anything other than a dent in the pipe by the turbo ..Lilley from my rollover. Wires all look fine I'm guessing rattled/busted something inside.

Its at the dealership now..

that bites.

Indeed.

I'm curious what went wrong. They are going to try to get to it tonight, or tomorrow morning.

The dealer offered to come help un-strand me too today which was super surprising and apricated but I managed to get it back to my truck and on my truck myself.

sucks and hopefully it’ll get handled quickly. post what they find wrong with it.

The wastegate actuator is seized, they said it wont even move if they try to move it by hand.

They are ordering a new one said it should be fixed in about a week.

Not sure whats wrong with it something must have broke inside it.

Dealer replaced the wastegate servo under warranty, rode it yesterday works good again.
