The control module detected an interruption (open circuit) in the Intake Manifold Runner Control circuit, so the expected electrical continuity was not present.
Possible causes
- Wiring open circuit
- intake manifold air control actuator / solenoid

Generic (OBD-II) interpretation + 1 manufacturer-specific in the TuningBot DTC database.
The control module detected an interruption (open circuit) in the Intake Manifold Runner Control circuit, so the expected electrical continuity was not present.
Ford documents P2008:01 for its 2024-2025 gasoline-engine OBD monitor strategy as imrc control circuit. This three-byte interpretation is application-specific and identifies the detected monitor condition rather than a confirmed failed component.
Ford documents P2008:72 (actuator stuck open) for its 2024-2025 gasoline-engine OBD monitor strategy as imrc stuck open, bank 1. This three-byte interpretation is application-specific and identifies the detected monitor condition rather than a confirmed failed component.
Ford documents P2008:73 for its 2024-2025 gasoline-engine OBD monitor strategy as imrc stuck closed, bank 1. This three-byte interpretation is application-specific and identifies the detected monitor condition rather than a confirmed failed component.
Powertrain: engine, transmission and driveline systems.
Generic SAE-standard code: same meaning on every make.
Specific fault index within the subsystem.
Diagnostic Trouble Code (3 variants). The control module detected an interruption (open circuit) in the Intake Manifold Runner Control circuit, so the expected electrical continuity was not present.
P2008 exists both as a generic OBD-II code (same meaning on every make) and with 1 manufacturer-specific interpretation(s): Ford. Always read it in the context of your vehicle.
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.
