P0E06 means the phase V current sensor of the generator inverter delivers a signal at the floor of its range. The 2023 Outlander PHEV is the only documented user: Mitsubishi's generator control unit, running on 8 V or more, stores P0E06-00 when the V-phase voltage remains at 0.5 V or below for 0.2 s, and the MIL comes on. Electrically this fits an interrupted signal or supply line or a signal shorted to ground, which is how Mitsubishi's older chart explains the matching U-phase fault. On this model the sensor is integrated in the power module, so the official remedy after a confirming test drive is a new unit. The older Outlander PHEV has no V-phase sensor and therefore never sets P0E06. Related: P0E05 (offset) and P0E07 (signal high).

Likely causes

V-phase sensor signal shorted to ground or sensor failed low
Open sensor signal or supply inside the power drive unit
Input of the generator control unit faulty

Symptoms

  • MIL and hybrid system warning light on
  • Generator power limited
