P0E02 Generator Phase U Current Sensor Circuit Low

The generator phase U current sensor reports a circuit low fault. 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.
