P1065 is an OBD-II diagnostic trouble code meaning “Cylinder 1 Oil Supply Solenoid Valve / ECM Power or Fuel Pressure Fault (manufacturer-specific).” P1065 is a manufacturer-specific powertrain code with more than one meaning. On some Chrysler/Fiat-family engines it refers to the cylinder 1 oil-supply solenoid valve switching time being out of range (part of variable valve/oil control). On other makes (such as Nissan and some GM applications) it has been used for ECM power supply or fuel-pressure-related faults. Because the definition varies, the exact circuit involved should be confirmed against the specific make and model. This code is most commonly reported on 2012-2019 Fiat 500 (Pop, Sport, Lounge, Turbo), with repair costs ranging from $800 to $1,400.
