P23D0 Fuel Heater Control Module Feedback Signal Circuit High

Same as P23CD with the feedback 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.

Is it safe to drive with P23D0?

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

Common causes

  • Most likelyFeedback line shorted to supply
  • Less likelyConnector pins corroded - high contact resistance
  • Less likelySupply wire pinched against B+ source
