Some engines can change where the air cleaner draws its air, for example switching between a cold inlet at the front and a second opening in the engine bay, with a flap or valve moved by a solenoid or small motor. P2675 is the open or general circuit fault of this control: the module driving the flap detects that its output line carries no current or reports a fault it cannot classify further. No manufacturer documents P2675 publicly. Ford's 2014 gasoline code list contains only the low and high variants P2676 and P2677, both as continuous tests without MIL, which suggests the open case is treated inside those codes there. CARB demands circuit checks on outputs that can influence emissions. The flap then stays wherever it stopped.
Medium severity. Can I keep driving?If the car is running normally, drive in moderation to a repair shop. If it loses power or another warning appears, do not continue.
Symptoms
- Warning light or stored code, often without MIL
- Inlet flap no longer switches
- Usually no noticeable change in driving
Most likely causes
- Connector at the inlet flap actuator loose or unplugged, often after air filter service
- Broken wire in the actuator circuit
- Open coil or motor winding in the flap actuator
What to check, in order
Start with the simplest. You can tick off each step.
Good to know
- Repair difficulty: easy
What each character of P2675 means
- P: Powertrain: engine and transmission
- 2: Generic code: same on every make
- 6: Control modules and outputs
- 75: Specific fault in that system
Frequently asked questions
Can I keep driving with code P2675?
If the car is running normally, drive in moderation to a repair shop. If it loses power or another warning appears, do not continue.
What causes code P2675?
The most common causes are: connector at the inlet flap actuator loose or unplugged, often after air filter service; broken wire in the actuator circuit; open coil or motor winding in the flap actuator.
