P2E95Charge Port Door B Open Request Switch Circuit Low

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
How the car detects it
P2E95 says the request signal from charge flap B has dropped under the bottom of its permitted range. Usual reasons are a signal wire touching ground, water bridging the connector pins or an internally shorted sensor. Depending on the wiring, the control unit may take this as a button held down all the time. No manufacturer documents P2E95 publicly. For the A flap, GM's 2011 Volt table sets P0CC9 once 6 out of 8 readings stay under 22.9 percent, and treats it as Type B. Water at flap connectors is a known weak point on two-sided designs: Audi's campaign 93H6 for the e-tron sealed or replaced the connectors in the charge door units on both sides because moisture could leave the flap openable only with the manual release. High readings are P2E96, invalid middle values P2E93.
