Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) Information ECM-P060696
Condition
The Engine control module (ECM) continuously monitors a number of internal signals through calculations and compares them. The aim is to ensure reliability during operation.
The diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored if the control module detects that:
- Internal checks give unacceptable results.
The control module's test for the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) starts in the event of:
- Ignition on.
NOTE:
The control module can only detect the fault once the test has been started and the diagnostic trouble code (DTC) is stored when the conditions are met.
Substitute Value
- Various internal signals in the engine control module (ECM) are replaced with default values.
- The vehicle's performance is restricted if the fault occurs continually for a long period of time.
Possible Source
- Poorly charged battery or corroded connecting wiring.
- Damaged software in the engine control module (ECM).
- Damaged engine control module (ECM).
