P20E9 Meaning

The Powertrain Control Module (PCM) monitors the reductant pressure when the system is preparing for injection. The DEF post-treatment pump has internal diagnostics that assess whether the DEF pump is capable of meeting its demand. If the pump reports insufficient performance for more than a threshold time, the P20E8 code is set.
