P0ED5Generator Phase X Current Low

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Matters for the ITP
  • Can trigger limp mode
  • Needs a drive cycle to confirm a fix
How the car detects it
P0ED5 means that phase X of the hybrid generator carries, or appears to carry, too little current while the generator is supposed to deliver torque. No manufacturer documents P0ED5 publicly. Mitsubishi publishes a comparable check for the U, V and W phases of the 2023 Outlander PHEV: with at least 50 A requested and the generator between 500 and 4,500 rpm, a phase current that stays within roughly 17 A of zero for 0.4 s sets P0E0C, as does a failed comparison with the target current. In phase X the same result comes from a broken phase cable, a burnt winding joint, an inverter switch that never conducts, or a current sensor stuck at its zero point. P0ED6 is the high case; the low codes of phases Y and Z are P0ED8 and P0EDB. Generator torque and charging suffer.
What you may notice
  • Weak or no battery charging by the generator
  • Rough engine start or vibration from the generator
  • MIL and hybrid warning
Likely causes
  • LikelyOpen or loose phase X cable or terminal
  • PossibleInverter power switch for phase X not conducting
  • RareBurnt or broken winding connection in the generator
  • RareCurrent sensor stuck near zero
Inspection (ITP)
Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
