P024F

Charge Air Cooler Bypass Position Sensor A Circuit High

CAC bypass position sensor A signal voltage above expected range. 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.

  • Check engine light: Yes
