Fuel Mode Select Switch Circuit Low
Fuel mode switch input reads stuck low — short to ground or stuck-closed contact. 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
- Fuel mode switch
Common causes
- High likelihood: Switch wire shorted to ground
- Low likelihood: Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance
- Low likelihood: Harness chafing through insulation
