P0501 is an OBD2 trouble code that indicates there is an issue with your Ford Kuga’s Vehicle Speed Sensor (VSS). It occurs when the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) gets a signal from the VSS outside its normal operating range (in terms of voltage). P0501 is a generic powertrain code, which …

P0193 is a generic OBD-II code that can occur in the Ford Kuga. It indicates that your Kuga’s fuel rail pressure sensor is sending a signal to the PCM that is above its normal operating range (in terms of voltage value). While P0193 is a generic code (it has the …

P0705 is a very common transmission-related trouble code that can occur in the Ford Kuga. In layman’s terms, it means that your Kuga can’t tell what gear you’ve selected, which can have some real consequences on how it drives. It’s most likely caused by a bad Transmission Range Sensor (TRS), …

P1289 is a manufacturer-specific diagnostic trouble code. In the case of Ford-built vehicles (such as the Ford Kuga), it indicates that the cylinder head temperature sensor returned a value to the powertrain control module (PCM) that was greater than the signal should be during a self-test cycle. The most likely …

P2279 is a generic OBD-II code. It indicates there is a vacuum leak coming from your Ford Kuga’s air intake system. While P2279 is a generic code (it has the same definition for the Kuga as it would any other vehicle made after 1996), repair steps will vary based on …

P0116 indicates that your Ford Kuga’s engine coolant temperature sensor is sending a signal to the PCM (powertrain control module) that is outside of its normal operating range (in terms of voltage). While P0116 is a generic OBD2 code (it has the same definition for any car or truck), it …

P0117 is a generic OBD2 code.  It indicates that your Ford Kuga’s PCM (powertrain control module) has detected the signal coming from the engine coolant temp (ECT) sensor has a voltage level below its normal operating range. With the ECT sensor, as the voltage level drops, it will appear that …

P0036 is a very common O2 sensor-related trouble code. It’s generic, which means it has the same definition for the Ford Kuga as any other vehicle. This code is almost always caused by a bad heated oxygen sensor or wiring issue and is almost always symptom-free. P0036 should NOT be …

P0058 is a not too common and OBDII trouble code that occurs in the Ford Kuga. It indicates that the heated oxygen sensor (which we’ll be referring to as HO2S a lot) heater control circuit located at B2S2 is sending a signal to the PCM that is outside of its …

P0056 is a somewhat common O2 sensor-related OBD2 trouble code. It is a generic code, which means it has the same definition for the Ford Kuga as it would any other vehicle. This code is almost always caused by a bad heated oxygen sensor or wiring issue and almost never …
