P2C67Hybrid/EV Electronics Coolant Pump A Overspeed

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Matters for the ITP
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
With P2C67 the electronics coolant pump A runs faster than commanded. A centrifugal pump speeds up as soon as it loses load, so air in the loop is the leading suspect, followed by a loose impeller or a faulty speed signal. Mercedes logs the related dry-run code P2B2A7A on the GLE/GLS 167 with M177 V8 and 48 V system: air in the low-temperature loop sends the 15 W pump into an emergency dry-run mode, and the cluster shows a yellow coolant message. A Pierburg patent detects dry running by letting the motor coast after a defined energy pulse and counting rotor turns. No manufacturer documents P2C67 itself. Ford's 2024 summary treats overspeed/dry run (B1) as its own pump fault type. Underspeed is P2C66, dry run P2B2A.
What you may notice
  • Coolant or drive system warning in the cluster
  • Churning or gurgling noise from the pump
  • Reduced power when electronics temperatures climb
Likely causes
  • LikelyAir in the electronics loop after service or from a leak
  • PossibleLow coolant level in the low-temperature reservoir
  • RareImpeller slipping on the shaft or broken
  • RareImplausible speed feedback from the pump electronics
Inspection (ITP)
Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
