OBD2 Car ScannerWhat does P060F mean?
P060F stands for Internal Control Module Coolant Temperature Performance. The engine computer has found a fault in one of its own circuits or in a circuit it controls.
Powertrain codes cover the engine, transmission and emissions. When the car's computer sees a reading outside its normal range, it stores this code and may turn on a warning light on the dashboard.
Common causes
- Damaged wiring or a loose connector
- Low battery voltage or poor ground
- Faulty relay or actuator
- In rare cases, a faulty engine control module
What to do
- Read all stored and pending codes with a scanner. Several codes together often point to one cause.
- Note the freeze frame data (speed, temperature, load) recorded when the code was set.
- Inspect the wiring and connectors of the part named in the code for damage, corrosion or looseness.
- Fix the most likely and cheapest cause first, then clear the code and drive to see if it comes back.
