Q: What does code P2EA0 mean?

Charge Port Door B Unlock Control Circuit High. P2EA0 indicates that the charge port door B unlock control circuit is reading a high voltage condition, meaning the powertrain control module (PCM) or body control module (BCM) has detected an open circuit, a short to voltage, or a faulty actuator on the unlock control wire for the second charge port door. The module expects the circuit to pull low when the unlock command is issued, but instead it sees voltage remain high or rise unexpectedly.
