P2666

Moderate

Fuel Shutoff Valve "B" Control Circuit Low

What Does P2666 Mean?

The PCM has detected voltage on the Fuel Shutoff Valve B control circuit that is lower than expected specifications. This indicates a short to ground or excessive resistance in the circuit preventing proper valve operation.

Common Causes

40%

Short to ground in fuel shutoff valve control circuit wiring

Wiring Harness
Wire Insulation

30%

Failed fuel shutoff valve B with internal short to ground

Fuel Shutoff Valve B

15%

Damaged or pinched wiring harness causing intermittent ground contact

Wiring Harness

10%

Corroded connector creating high resistance path to ground

Electrical Connectors

5%

PCM internal short circuit in driver output

PCM

Diagnostic Steps

1

Step 1: Disconnect fuel shutoff valve B connector and check for voltage short to ground on control wire

2

Step 2: Measure resistance between control wire and chassis ground with valve disconnected (should be infinite)

3

Step 3: Check fuel shutoff valve B solenoid for internal short by measuring resistance to case ground

4

Step 4: Inspect wiring harness routing for pinch points, abrasion, or contact with hot engine components

5

Step 5: Monitor circuit voltage with scan tool during valve activation to identify intermittent shorts

Estimated Repair Cost

$150 - $650
