What does code P035E mean?

Q: What does code P035E mean?

Ignition F Control Signal Circuit Low. P035E means the powertrain control module (PCM) has detected a low-voltage condition on the ignition coil control circuit for cylinder F, which is the sixth cylinder in the engine's firing order. The PCM commands the coil to fire by pulling the control wire low, but the voltage on that circuit stays lower than expected, indicating a short to ground or a failed coil driver.
