P0007Fuel Shutoff Valve A Control Circuit High
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- Turns on the check-engine light
- Matters for the ITP
- Needs a drive cycle to confirm a fix
- How the car detects it
- The fuel shutoff valve is a solenoid valve that opens or blocks the fuel supply. On diesel engines it is usually closed without current, so that the engine stops reliably when switched off. The engine control module energises it to let fuel flow and monitors its control circuit continuously. P0007 means the voltage in the control circuit stays too high, because the control module expects the line to be pulled to ground. Typical causes are a short to battery voltage or, with ground-side switching, an open circuit. The valve cannot be switched, which leads to starting problems or stalling.
