Cylinder 9 Pressure Sensor Circuit High

Cylinder 9 pressure sensor above upper plausibility — open signal or short to B+. 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

  • Cylinder pressure sensor 9

Common causes

  • High likelihood: Signal line shorted to supply
  • Medium likelihood: Sensor ground open
  • Low likelihood: Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance

Diagnostic notes

  • The malfunction indicator lamp may illuminate
  • This code can affect emissions
