P0E2BDrive Motor Inverter Temperature Sensor H 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
P0E2B is the upper-limit fault of inverter temperature sensor H. Mitsubishi documents it for the 2023 Outlander PHEV, where sensor H is IGBT sensor 8 at the V-phase H2 position of the front motor unit: a signal reaching 3.75 V for 0.08 s while the unit receives 8 V or more sets P0E2B-00, and the function list shows MIL and hybrid warning light for it. In an NTC circuit with pull-up, as GM uses in its inverters, the controller would read this as an implausibly cold phase, so the cause is almost always electrical: an interrupted signal path, a missing sensor ground or an element that has gone open. Its low-side partner is P0E2A, the U-phase counterpart P0E26. The repair at Mitsubishi is a new power drive unit.
What you may notice
  • MIL and hybrid warning light on
  • Drive power may be limited
Likely causes
  • LikelyInterrupted signal path of sensor H
  • PossibleMissing sensor ground
  • RareThermistor element gone open
Inspection (ITP)
Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
