Exhaust Aftertreatment Fuel Pressure Sensor Circuit Range/Performance

24 brands affected · Generic SAE J2012 description.

Key terms: Control module: a small computer that runs one part of the car · SAE J2012: the standard generic code list · Powertrain: engine, transmission and emissions

Safety: This code relates to fuel pressure or a fuel leak, which carries a stall or fire risk.

1What it means in plain English

The engine or powertrain control system has stored a fault that does not have specific guidance in this database yet.

2Common causes

  1. Sensor or actuator fault
  2. Wiring or connector fault
  3. Vacuum or intake leak
  4. Fuel or ignition problem
  5. Control module fault

3Can I drive?

Serious · drive with care

Do not drive if you smell fuel. Have the fuel system checked before driving further: a fuel leak or loss of pressure can cause a fire or make the engine stall.
