PCV Regulator Valve Control Circuit Low
Same as P05D8 with the control line shorted to ground. Wiring faults of this kind typically come from chafing, water ingress at connector seals, or pin push-back — a wiggle test on the harness while the code is active often confirms the location.
Affected components
- Pcv regulator valve
Common causes
- High likelihood: Control line shorted to ground
- Low likelihood: Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance
- Low likelihood: Harness chafing through insulation
