P04C6

Fuel Fill Door Lock Position Sensor Circuit High

Same as P04C3 with the signal voltage above the plausible 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: Not always
  • Emissions related: No
  • Repair difficulty: easy
