P0DF6Generator Inverter Temperature Sensor B Circuit High
- Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
- Turns on the check-engine light

- Can trigger limp mode
- How the car detects it
- P0DF6 is the high-signal case for sensor B in the generator inverter. In the Outlander PHEV Mitsubishi stores P0DF6-00 when the V-phase high-side IGBT sensor voltage reaches at least 3.75 V during 0.08 s, again only with a GCU supply of at least 8 V. A voltage at the upper limit mostly points to an interrupted sensor line, a lost reference ground or a cracked element; with the common NTC layout it reads as an implausibly cold module. Since the inverter can then no longer protect its switches against overheating, the controller works with a safe substitute and may cut generator output. Mitsubishi's procedure ends with a new power drive unit. Too low a signal on this sensor is P0DF5; the same open-type fault on sensor C would be P0DF9.
- What you may notice
- Engine or hybrid warning light on
- Inverter temperature shown far too low
- Generator power reduced
- Likely causes
- PossibleOpen signal line or backed-out terminal
- PossibleLost sensor reference ground
- PossibleCracked sensor element or internal fault of the power drive unit
- Inspection (ITP)
- Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
