P02FD Cold Start Fuel Injection Control Circuit High
Cold-start injector drive line stuck high — short to B+. 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.

Usually safe to drive in the short term. Get it diagnosed when convenient, sooner if the car drives differently.
