P2148

Critical
Moderate

Fuel Injector Group "A" Supply Voltage Circuit High

What Does P2148 Mean?

The PCM has detected abnormally high voltage in the fuel injector group A supply circuit. This suggests an open ground circuit or excessive resistance preventing proper injector operation.

Safety Warning

Will cause severe misfires and loss of power on affected cylinders. May result in catalyst damage and unsafe driving conditions. Repair immediately.

Diagnostic Steps

1

Step 1: Locate and inspect all ground connections for injector circuit; clean and tighten all connections

2

Step 2: Measure resistance from injector ground circuit to known good chassis ground; should be less than 1 ohm

3

Step 3: Check voltage at injector connector with engine running; should pulse between 0-12V

4

Step 4: Test injector driver module ground side switching with oscilloscope or test light

5

Step 5: Verify PCM connector pins for corrosion or pushed-out terminals affecting ground circuits

Estimated Repair Cost

$120 - $950
