BMW

1 interpretation
P1012
WT control circuit, bank 1 - high input BMW · engine Data confidence 62%

The control module detected that the WT control circuit, bank 1 signal stayed above the expected range. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by BMW.

Possible causes

  • Wiring
  • connections

Chevrolet

1 interpretation
P1012
Exhaust camshaft position (CMP) actuator, bank 1 - incorrect park position Chevrolet · engine Data confidence 62%

The control module detected that the Exhaust camshaft position (CMP) actuator, bank 1 state or value did not match what was expected. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Chevrolet.

Possible causes

  • Engine oil level/pressure
  • mechanical fault

Chrysler

1 interpretation
P1012
Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too High Chrysler · fuel Data confidence 62%

The control module detected that the Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure value was above the expected limit. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Chrysler.

Dodge

1 interpretation
P1012
Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too High Dodge · fuel Data confidence 62%

The control module detected that the Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure value was above the expected limit. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Dodge.

Ford

1 interpretation
P1012:00
Wastegate Control Pressure Sensor Circuit Low Ford · engine Data confidence 94%

Ford documents P1012:00 (no sub type information) for its 2024-2025 gasoline-engine OBD monitor strategy as wastegate control pressure sensor circuit low. This three-byte interpretation is application-specific and identifies the detected monitor condition rather than a confirmed failed component.

Recommended checks

  • Perform a full module scan
  • Review freeze-frame and occurrence data
  • Inspect relevant wiring and connectors
  • Check power supplies and grounds
  • Compare commanded and measured values
  • Check applicable OEM service information
Applies to Ford gasoline-engine OBD applications|2024-2025 model years

Jeep

1 interpretation
P1012
Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure Too High Jeep · fuel Data confidence 62%

The control module detected that the Fuel Pump Delivery Pressure value was above the expected limit. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Jeep.

MINI

1 interpretation
P1012
Valvetronic Eccentric Shaft Sensor Reference MINI · engine Data confidence 62%

The control module detected a fault associated with the Valvetronic Eccentric Shaft Sensor Reference circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by MINI.

PSA
