P1235 FORD Meaning
The P1235 code indicates that the Fuel Pump Driver Module (FPDM) has detected an invalid or missing Fuel Pump (FP) circuit signal from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM). The FPDM sends a message to the PCM via the FPM circuit, indicating that this fault has been detected. The PCM sets the DTC when the message is received.
