🎯 Top Causes, Ranked by Likelihood

#1Short to voltage in the sensor circuit$50-$250

40%

A wire shorted to power raises the signal voltage high.

#2Open circuit in the sensor wiring$50-$250

25%

An open signal or ground wire can read high.

#3Failed runner position sensor$60-$300

25%

A faulted sensor outputs an abnormally high signal.

10%

Corrosion adds resistance that skews the reading high.
