P018C OBD-II: Fuel Pressure Sensor "B" Circuit Low
P018C Severity
Should you fix P018C yourself?
Identifying an OBD code is just the start of a complete diagnostic routine. Most trouble codes are caused by a sensor reporting a value that is out of range. Just replacing a sensor may not fix underlying issues. Be sure to understand the code, the part or system in your car that the code refers to, and the risks of delaying professional repair.
Proper diagnosis will save you time and money on unnecessary repairs.
Urgent codes indicate immediate action is necessary. These are urgent and significant malfunctions that can cause severe damage to the vehicle or harm the driver and passengers.
What causes OBD-II fault code P018C?
The Fuel Pressure Sensor monitors the fuel pressure in the fuel system. The Fuel Pump Control Module uses this information to adjust the fuel pump's on time as needed. If the Fuel Pump Control Module does not see a change in pressure from the Fuel Pressure Sensor when the fuel pump is activated, it will set code P018C.
