The bank 2 rail pressure sensor measures the pressure in a second, separate high-pressure rail on V engines that have one rail with its own sensor per bank. Many V engines connect both rails and use only one sensor (P0190–P0194); the only documented user of the bank 2 codes is GM's 5.5 litre LT6 (Corvette Z06 2023–2024) with a digital sensor per rail. P01C0 means the signal of the bank 2 sensor is too low – the counterpart of P0192: a signal wire shorted to ground or an open 5 V reference. On bank 1 GM's diesels use below 4.3 % of supply. No manufacturer document using exactly this code was found; the logic follows the bank 1 sensor and CARB's circuit monitoring requirement. On a fault the module uses a substitute value and usually limits power.

Likely causes

Signal wire shorted to ground, harness chafed
5 V reference open or shorted
Connector corroded or loose
Rail pressure sensor faulty internally

Symptoms

  • Check engine light on
  • Limp mode or 'Reduced Engine Power'
  • Hard starting, stalling
