P2D06Motor Electronics Coolant Pump B Overspeed/Air in System

  • 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
P2D06 says pump B of the motor electronics loop turns above its commanded speed, the classic sign of a pump that has lost its coolant column to air or a falling level. Ford documents a real case: customer satisfaction programme 23B09 covered 72 F-150 Lightning trucks of model years 2022–2023, built between 28 and 30 September 2022, whose high-voltage battery coolant tubes were made of the wrong material. A shrinking tube spigot could leak, and P2D06 could set together with the battery pump code P2B29, without the driver noticing anything; the fix was replacing both tube assemblies. So the leak need not be near pump B itself. Ford's 2024 summary handles overspeed/dry run as type B1. Bleed the loop and look for the leak; stalled is P2D05, underspeed P2D07.
What you may notice
  • Often none apart from the stored code
  • Falling level in the degas bottle or traces of coolant
  • Inverter overtemperature warning and reduced acceleration if the loss continues
Likely causes
  • LikelyCoolant leak anywhere in the shared loop, such as faulty battery coolant tubes (Ford 23B09)
  • LikelyAir left in the loop after filling without the prescribed bleeding procedure
  • RareImpeller slipping on the shaft or implausible speed feedback
Inspection (ITP)
Matters for the ITP. While the check-engine light is on, the car fails the emissions check.
