P027CFuel Pump Module B Control Circuit Low

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Matters for the ITP
How the car detects it
On demand-controlled fuel systems the engine module does not drive the pump itself but sends a pump control module the desired pump output on a separate control line, usually as a duty cycle; the module reports back on a monitor line or via CAN. Module B is a second pump module, for example on dual-tank commercial vehicles. P027C means the control circuit to pump module B reads low, typically a short to ground – the counterpart of P025C. Ford lists it in the low-pressure lift pump monitor of its 2023 diesels, monitored continuously and set within 0.5 s, without stating its own threshold or which vehicle has a module B.
What you may notice
  • Check engine light on

Inspection (ITP)
Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
