2002 Dodge Cummins P0216 Code: Intermittent Power Loss and Fuel Circuit Issues

Model: 02 Dodge Cummins Fault Code: P0216 Posted: 2007-02-09 13:44

Experiencing intermittent loss of engine power on my 2002 Dodge Cummins. The vehicle is showing a P0216 diagnostic trouble code, which is specific to the 21st PCM (Powertrain Control Module). Fuel circuit failure appears possible, but datastream readings seem normal. I'm seeking expert advice on potential causes and troubleshooting steps for this issue.

The most likely cause is a faulty lift pump or issues within the lift pump circuit.

P0216 indicates an issue with the injection timing control circuit in diesel engines, specifically related to fuel delivery timing.

Could this be a symptom of deeper system failure or a misdiagnosis?

No — the P0216 code points to an injection timing control circuit fault, not a general fuel delivery problem.
