Diagnostic boundary

A diagnostic trouble code reports that a monitored test failed. It does not prove one specific part is bad, and manufacturer logic can add vehicle-specific conditions.

Do not condemn hydraulic parts before checking pressure sensor A wiring and whether pressure is actually high.
