P2A90Alternative Fuel Pump C Performance

P2A90 indicates that the powertrain control module has detected a performance fault with the alternative fuel pump circuit, meaning the pump is not delivering the expected pressure or flow for the commanded duty cycle. The computer monitors the pump's electrical current and feedback signal, and when the actual response deviates from the expected profile, it sets this code and illuminates the malfunction indicator lamp.
