P233D — Fuel Pressure Regulator B Solenoid Supply Voltage Control Circuit Open
The supply line that powers the solenoid of fuel pressure regulator B is open. Without supply the regulator cannot operate and the ECU cannot maintain rail pressure on this stage; sets when the controller sees no current flow even with the solenoid commanded on.
General code reference. Confirm the definition and diagnostic procedure for your vehicle's year, model and engine. A stored code alone does not identify a failed part.
