P2371 — Fuel-volume regulator B control circuit — performance fault

P2371 concerns fuel-volume regulator B control circuit.

Meaning, symptoms, causes and checks

P2371 concerns fuel-volume regulator B control circuit. The monitor reports that the named control function does not meet its expected operating behavior. The code names fuel-volume regulation and channel B. It does not simply state that fuel pressure is too high or too low.

Affected system: Fuel metering and pressure control

Symptoms

  • Warning light may illuminate
  • Related system function may be impaired
  • Vehicle-specific symptoms vary

Possible causes

  • Fuel supply or pressure issue, restricted injector, actuator fault, connector or wiring damage
  • Related wiring, connector, power or ground fault
  • Vehicle-specific mechanical or control issue

What to check

  • Record stored and pending codes and freeze-frame data
  • Check fuel supply and pressure readings, electrical supply and ground, and the relevant injector or regulator circuit before replacing parts.
  • Confirm measured values against the vehicle service information
  • Retest under the conditions that set the code
  • Check fuel supply and pressure readings, electrical supply and ground, and the relevant injector or regulator circuit before replacing parts.
  • Repair the verified cause and confirm the code does not return

Also written as: P2371-00, P237100 (some scan tools add the fault-type byte, e.g. -00).
