P25BE

Alternative Fuel Disable Control Circuit / Open

Moderate severity

What it means

The controller cannot drive the alternative-fuel disable line that switches a bi-fuel vehicle (CNG, LPG, hydrogen) back to gasoline. An open detected on the control side blocks the safety shutoff for the gas system.

Is it safe to drive?

The vehicle is usually drivable for short distances, but the problem can worsen or affect emissions. Diagnose and repair as soon as practical.

Most likely causes
