What does code P2361 mean?

Q: What does code P2361 mean?

Cylinder 11 Pressure Too Low. P2361 indicates that the engine control module has detected a low-pressure condition in cylinder 11, typically based on a comparison of crankshaft speed fluctuations or a dedicated cylinder pressure sensor. The computer sets this code when the measured or inferred pressure for cylinder 11 falls below the expected threshold during combustion, signaling a mechanical or fueling imbalance.
