Default HELP with error code

I just replaced my O2 sensor and idle air control valve. I cleared all codes. Now I have a P0245 error code. Have no idea what it is. Not inmy book. Can someone help?

Anyone know where this solenoid is, or how hard it is to replace? Thanks

OK Update. It is the boost control valve that is normally located on the back of the air filter box. There is an electrical plug and 3 vaccum lines going to it.

Trace the vaccum lines very good and make sure there is no cracks and that they are all connected.
