This summary uses the existing diagnostic information shown in full below.
This means that the car's computer is having trouble talking to the part that controls the fuel pump, which helps the car get gas to the engine.
The P025C code indicates that the voltage in the control circuit for the fuel pump module is lower than expected.
The fuel pump module is responsible for delivering fuel from the tank to the engine. The control circuit manages the power supply to the module. A low voltage condition can prevent the fuel pump from operating correctly, which can lead to engine performance issues.
• Engine won't start
• Engine stalling
• Poor engine performance
• Faulty fuel pump relay
• Damaged wiring or connectors
• Faulty fuel pump control module

This code has been associated with issues in vehicles with aging fuel systems or electrical components.
High – This code can lead to engine stalling or failure to start, which can leave you stranded.
Driving with a faulty fuel pump control circuit can lead to safety hazards. Address the issue promptly.
• Engine running
• Fuel pump operating
The fuel pump module is typically located in or near the fuel tank.
Q: Can I drive with a P025C code?
A: It's not recommended as it can lead to engine stalling or failure to start.
Q: What happens if I ignore this code?
A: Ignoring this code can result in poor engine performance or being unable to start the vehicle.
