CFCA primary turbo not spinning at idle

[johnp1982]

Hello, my CFCA bi turbo primary turbo does not make boost. Is the actuator for this smaller turbo (or is it the bypass actuator?) supposed to operate at idle? Mine does. This is the electrical and vacuum combined actuator, NOT the actuator for the secondary lower larger turbo.
I have removed the aluminium intake section off the turbo to get to the compressor wheel and can turn the compressor wheel by hand, so it is not seized.
Have had engine idling in this state and the compressor wheel does not spin at all.
Any ideas what could be wrong?
Thanks
John

Have you checked the axial float on the rotor?

Yes. Do you know if the rod should operate or not at idle? Want to make sure the vac lines are correct. and to check every thing before i take the turbo off the motor.

Thanks for that. VERY informative. Seems the control flap is open and high pressure turbo has no exhaust gas path.
What I am confused on is drawing shows x1 N75 valves and x1 changeover valve.
I have x2 N75 valves and x1 changeover.
Any ideas as to this?

Ahhh, forget re the x2 n75 valves, got it sorted in my head.
