P2295

Moderate

Fuel Pressure Regulator 2 Control Circuit Low

What Does P2295 Mean?

The powertrain control module (PCM) has detected an abnormally low voltage or resistance in the control circuit for fuel pressure regulator 2. This typically indicates a short to ground or open circuit in the wiring harness or regulator solenoid.
