What does code P2267 mean?

Q: What does code P2267 mean?

Water in Fuel Sensor Circuit High. P2267 indicates that the powertrain control module (PCM) has detected an abnormally high voltage on the water-in-fuel sensor circuit, which typically means the sensor signal wire is shorted to voltage or the sensor's internal resistance has increased beyond the expected range. The PCM uses this sensor to detect water contamination in the fuel filter housing, and a high voltage reading tells the module that the circuit is not returning the expected ground reference.
