P0CEC: Hybrid/EV Electronics Coolant Pump A Control Circuit High
What to do
As P0C31 — check the electronics coolant level first; it is a separate reservoir from the engine's and easy to overlook, and if there has been recent coolant work, have the circuit properly bled. Expect slower charging while it is unfixed.
What this code means
Electronics coolant pump A's control circuit is reading high — a short to a live circuit, or an open read as an undriven output. The family's argument is at P0CE9.

Information, not instruction
CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.
Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:
- The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
- What you measured, not only what you replaced.
- What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
