Q: What does code P2EA6 mean?

Turbocharger Compressor Outlet Temperature Sensor Circuit. P2EA6 indicates that the powertrain control module has detected an abnormal signal from the turbocharger compressor outlet temperature sensor circuit, which monitors the temperature of the compressed air leaving the turbocharger before it reaches the engine intake. The computer compares the sensor's voltage or resistance reading against expected values and sets this code when the signal falls outside the normal operating range.
