The wastegate is the flap that releases the pressure off the turbo.

When you look at the turbo there's an arm from the actuator to the wastegate, put a spanner on the arm & just open the gate. It's sprung loaded & will only go one way.

I had mine jam open & the turbo couldn't spool up(rotate) cos there was no way of building up pressure, may be it's jammed.
