Hi. Im having a diffucult time troubleshooting a 2021 duramax l5p high pressure fuel system issue. I have already replaced both fuel pressure regulators, and the fuel rail pressure sensor and connector. The issue is it keeps setting dtcs p2293 fuel pressure regulator 2 performance and p0172 fuel system rich. When watching the high pressure fuel system data, i can see the command for 4500 psi, and the pressure regulator #2 command for 10% but rail pressure is measured at 17,000 p.s.i. ive replaced the regulator no.2 twice now and theres no sign of contaminated diesel.

It seems that the computer is trying to reduce pressure, but can't. I would check for a restricted return line, be it a clog, kink, or crimp.
