Compressed natural gas pressure sensorpressure high
Chrysler · engine
Data confidence62%
The control module detected a fault associated with the Compressed natural gas pressure sensorpressure high circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Chrysler.
Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor Signal Less Than Self - Test Range
Ford · engine
Data confidence80%
The control module detected a fault associated with the Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor Signal Less Than Self - Test Range circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Ford.

Frequently asked questions about P1290
What does P1290 mean?
Diagnostic Trouble Code (11 interpretations). The control module detected a fault associated with the Compressed natural gas pressure sensorpressure high circuit or function; the stored code identifies the affected component rather than a single failure mode. This is the manufacturer-specific definition used by Chrysler.
Is P1290 generic or manufacturer-specific?
P1290 is a manufacturer-specific code. In this database it is documented for: Chrysler, Ford, Honda, Hyundai, Jeep, Land Rover, Mazda, Nissan, PSA, VAG. The same number can mean something different on other brands.
Can TuningBot remove P1290 at file level?
If the fault logic lives in the ECU calibration, yes: our DTC Removal file service disables the specific fault entry. Checksum correction is not included: it is a separate, optional service. Not sure whether your case qualifies? Request a free assessment and our engineers will check your ECU file.
