P2DFBCoolant Pump E Control Module Overtemperature

P2DFB indicates that the control module for the engine coolant pump 'E' has detected an internal overtemperature condition, meaning the electronics inside the pump module are running hotter than their safe design limit. The pump may still be commanded to run, but the module is protecting itself and can reduce or shut down pump operation until temperatures return to normal.
