Q: What does code P26F9 mean?

Coolant Pump C Control Module Overtemperature. P26F9 indicates that the control module for coolant pump C has detected an internal overtemperature condition, meaning the electronics driving that pump are running hotter than the design limit. The module monitors its own temperature and sets this code when the threshold is exceeded, often due to a failing pump, a cooling or electrical problem, or a fault inside the module itself.
