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.
Common Causes
35%
Damaged or chafed wiring causing short to ground in regulator control circuit
30%
Failed fuel pressure regulator 2 solenoid with internal short
20%
Corroded or loose connector at fuel pressure regulator
15%
Failed PCM driver circuit for fuel pressure regulator
Diagnostic Steps
1
Step 1: Inspect fuel pressure regulator 2 connector for corrosion, bent pins, or moisture
2
Step 2: Perform resistance test on fuel pressure regulator 2 solenoid (typically 3-10 ohms)
3
Step 3: Check wiring harness for shorts to ground using multimeter between PCM and regulator
4
Step 4: Verify ground circuit integrity at regulator and PCM
5
Step 5: Test PCM driver circuit by backprobing connector with voltage drop test
Estimated Repair Cost
$150 - $800
Parts + labor, varies by vehicle and location
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.
The most common cause of P2295 (Fuel Pressure Regulator 2 Control Circuit Low) is: Damaged or chafed wiring causing short to ground in regulator control circuit
Typical repair costs for P2295 range from $150 to $800, depending on the vehicle, location, and whether you do it yourself or go to a shop.
Vehicle may experience reduced power, stalling, or fail to start. Can be driven short distances but should be repaired promptly.
Start by connecting an OBD2 scanner to read the code and any freeze frame data. Then follow the diagnostic steps specific to P2295 to identify the root cause.
