P2D9CStarter/Generator Phase V Current Circuit Intermittent/Erratic

P2D9C indicates that the engine control module (ECM) has detected an intermittent or erratic current signal on the phase V circuit of the starter/generator unit, which is the motor-generator used in mild-hybrid systems. The ECM monitors this circuit for consistent current flow, and when the signal drops out or fluctuates beyond a calibrated threshold, it stores this code.
