P2286 OBD-II: Injector Control Pressure Sensor Circuit High
P2286 Severity
Should you fix P2286 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 P2286?
Some diesel engines use high pressure oil to control the fuel injectors on the diesel engine. The Injector Pressure Regulator (IPR) regulates the oil pressure going to the injectors. The Injector Control Pressure (ICP) Sensor monitors the oil pressure produced by the high pressure oil pump. If the ICP sends back an implausible signal, code P2286 will be set.
