Are you facing some troubles with your sensor connector? Or did your car mechanic tell you that your ECM is damaged? If the answer to these questions is a YES, then P0006 code may start flashing up. This error code is related to an electrical circuit which starts connecting from the car engine computer to our fuel system. You will be surprised to know that it is generally found in diesel engines. It might be related to some other codes like P0005 or P0007.

Willing to learn more about P0006 generic code? It is a generic code which is related to the problem with the engine control module which is not able to receive the right signals from the fuel shut off valve. This valve is present at the fuel supply rail which is mounted to your car engine. The fuel is prevented from entering the car engine when we turn it off with the help of engine control module. The valve would now prevent the car engine from continuing to run after the key has been turned off. The appearance of this code would cause dieseling and would also prevent the car engine from getting started. This would also turn on the check engine light.

What causes this problem with the Fuel Shutoff Valve "A" Control Circuit Low?

• There can be some short in the sensor connector
• ECM may experience a shorted wire going inside
• Some faults in the fuel shutoff valve
• The ECM may be damaged

1. Fuel Shutoff Valve - The P0006 code can also arise due to some issues in e Fuel Shutoff Valve. So, it is advised to replace them as soon as possible.
2. Engine Control Module - P0006 code does not really end up spoiling your Fuel Shutoff Valve, but it might also accompany few Ecm issues. We have best Ecm related parts with us.
3. Fuel Shut Off Solenoid - Common cause behind this P0006 error code can be some fault in Fuel Shut Off Solenoid. So, it will be a good decision to replace them now.
