P0C25Electric/Auxiliary Transmission Fluid Pump Control Module Circuit High

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Matters for the ITP
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
P0C25 reports that the circuit from the controlling module to the auxiliary pump control module sits high, for instance a command wire shorted to battery voltage or an output that cannot pull the line down. No manufacturer documents this exact code publicly. Ford's 2016 F-150 2.7L bulletin shows the type of signal involved: a PCM duty-cycle command that can be swept from 20 to 90 percent to prove pump operation. A line stuck high can be read as a constant full command or rejected as invalid, so the pump may run continuously or be shut off. GM's ELR pump controller also uses a separate wake-up line as enable. CARB requires circuit monitoring of such outputs. P0C23 is the open circuit, P0C24 the low side, P0C2E the high fault on the feedback line.
What you may notice
  • MIL or transmission warning
  • Pump runs continuously or start-stop is disabled
Likely causes
  • LikelyCommand wire shorted to battery or another supply voltage
  • PossibleOutput stage in the PCM/TCM stuck high
  • RareInput stage of the pump control module faulty
Inspection (ITP)
Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
