This summary uses the existing diagnostic information shown in full below.
The car's computer has detected that the pump which cools the electronics in a hybrid or electric vehicle is spinning too fast.
The electronics coolant pump is designed to maintain a specific speed to ensure proper cooling of the vehicle's electronic systems. If it spins too fast, it could indicate a malfunction.
The P2C67 code is triggered when the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) detects that the electronics coolant pump 'A' in a hybrid or electric vehicle is operating at a speed higher than expected. This could be due to a fault in the pump, a sensor error, or a wiring issue.
• Check Engine Light is on
• Overheating of electronic components
• Reduced vehicle performance
• Faulty electronics coolant pump
• Wiring issues or poor connections
• Faulty speed sensor
PCM: Powertrain Control Module
OBD-II: On-Board Diagnostics II
• Use an OBD-II scanner to confirm the code.
• Inspect the electronics coolant pump and its wiring.
• Check the speed sensor for proper operation.
• Replace the electronics coolant pump if faulty.
• Repair or replace damaged wiring or connectors.
• Replace the speed sensor if it is defective.
• OBD-II scanner
• Multimeter
• Wrench set

Moderate
• Toyota Prius
• Chevrolet Volt
• Nissan Leaf
• Regular maintenance of the cooling system
• Ensure proper connections and wiring integrity
• Regularly check for software updates
Cooling System Issue
• Do not ignore the warning light; get the vehicle checked.
• Avoid long drives until the issue is resolved to prevent overheating.
• Consult a professional mechanic for accurate diagnosis.
Check with the vehicle manufacturer for warranty coverage on hybrid/EV components.
This code has become more common with the increased use of hybrid and electric vehicles, as their cooling systems are crucial for performance.
High – This issue can lead to overheating and potential damage to electronic components if not addressed promptly.
Operating a vehicle with this code may lead to safety issues due to potential overheating and reduced performance. Ensure repairs are conducted by a qualified technician.
• Vehicle must be in operation
• Coolant system must be active
The electronics coolant pump is typically located near the battery pack or electronic control modules in the vehicle.
Q: Can I drive my car with a P2C67 code?
A: It's not recommended to drive the vehicle for extended periods with this code, as it may lead to overheating and damage.
Q: How can I prevent this code from appearing again?
A: Regular maintenance of the cooling system and ensuring all connections are secure can help prevent this issue.
