P02F6Cylinder 9 Injector Circuit Range/Performance
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- Turns on the check-engine light
- Matters for the ITP
- Can trigger limp mode
- Needs a drive cycle to confirm a fix
- How the car detects it
- P02F6 reports an electrically implausible response of the cylinder 9 injector – not an open or short circuit (those are P0209, P0285 and P0286), but a current or voltage pattern outside the expected range. Cylinder 9 exists only on engines with ten or more cylinders; GM and Ford documents stop at cylinder 8, so the description follows CARB and the documented checks for cylinders 1–8 (current fall time, voltage feedback, regulator at its limit). The injector may be shut off, causing misfire.
- What you may notice
- Check engine light on
- Rough running, misfire on cylinder 9
- Loss of power, smoke (diesel)
- Likely causes
- LikelyInjector electrically aged (piezo capacitance, coil resistance)
- PossibleContact resistance in the injector 9 connector or wiring
- PossibleInjector mechanically sticking (valve lift)
- RareInjector driver stage in the engine module
- Inspection (ITP)
- Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
- Repair
