What P01C2 means

P01C2
Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Intermittent/Erratic Bank 2 Generic · fuel Data confidence 65%

The control module detected an unstable or intermittent signal in the Fuel Rail Pressure circuit.

Symptoms

  • Possible hard starting or long cranking
  • Possible reduced power or cutting out
  • MIL illuminated

Possible causes

  • Low-pressure fuel supply fault (pump, filter, lines)
  • High-pressure pump wear or fault
  • Pressure regulator / volume control valve fault
  • Fuel pressure sensor fault
  • Internal leakage (injector return flow too high)

Recommended checks

  • Read specified vs actual rail pressure at cranking, idle and load
  • Check low-pressure supply (pressure/volume) first
  • Check control valve/regulator operation
  • Measure injector return flow where applicable
  • Inspect wiring and connectors of pressure components
