What does P2D6E mean?
The positive contactor D of the battery charging system reports a control circuit low condition. HV charging path cannot be commanded reliably.
The code tells you which monitor failed, not which part is broken. Test before replacing parts.
Common causes
- High Control wire shorted to ground
- Medium Internal short in contactor coil
- Low Connector pins corroded - high contact resistance
Likelihood is a general estimate across vehicles; your make and model may differ.
Add your car to see reports of P2D6E on the same make and model first.
