P216F Fuel Injector Group F Supply Voltage Circuit High
The supply voltage on injector group F is above the upper limit. Overvoltage on the group-F supply can mis-time or damage the injectors. Causes: charging-system overvoltage, a stuck supply relay or regulator, or a wiring fault shorting the group-F supply to a higher voltage.
Is it safe to drive with P216F?
Usually safe to drive in the short term. Get it diagnosed when convenient, sooner if the car drives differently.
Common causes
- Most likelyCharging system overvoltage
- Less likelyConnector pins corroded - high contact resistance
- Less likelySupply wire pinched against B+ source
Symptoms
- Check engine light on
- Misfire or rough idle on the affected cylinder
- Increased fuel consumption
- Possible fuel smell or smoke from exhaust
