P2D00Motor Electronics Coolant Pump A Stuck/Stalled

  • Generic OBD-II code · Powertrain
  • Turns on the check-engine light
  • Matters for the ITP
  • Can trigger limp mode
How the car detects it
P2D00 reports that coolant pump A of the motor electronics loop, which cools the inverter and drive-motor electronics, does not rotate although commanded. It opens its own series P2D00–P2D0E (stuck, overspeed/air, underspeed, supply voltage and module overtemperature for pumps A to C) and should not be confused with the Hybrid/EV electronics pump codes P2C66–P2C68. Ford uses P2D00 on 2020 hybrids: bulletins 20-2221 (Escape HEV, stored in the BECM) and 20-2345 (Explorer, Aviator, Police Interceptor Utility, stored in the PCM) list it with P2D01–P2D04 and fix it by reprogramming after the coolant level has been checked. Without a software cause, a seized rotor or debris is behind it. Without flow the inverter heats up and the system derates power.
What you may notice
  • MIL on
  • Reduced drive power when the inverter gets hot
  • Hybrid system warning message
Likely causes
  • LikelyPump rotor or bearing seized
  • PossibleBattery or powertrain controller software misreading the pump (Ford 2020 hybrids)
  • PossibleDebris jamming the impeller after coolant work
  • RarePump motor or integrated electronics failed
Inspection (ITP)
Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
