P267F

Moderate

P2680 Coolant Degassing Valve Control Circuit High

What Does P267F Mean?

The coolant degassing valve control circuit is reading abnormally high voltage or resistance. This valve removes trapped air from the cooling system on certain vehicles; a high circuit fault prevents proper valve operation.

Diagnostic Steps

1

Step 1: Locate coolant degassing valve and inspect electrical connector for damage or disconnection

2

Step 2: Disconnect valve and measure solenoid resistance; typical specification is 10-40 ohms

3

Step 3: Check for battery voltage at valve connector with key on (depending on system design)

4

Step 4: Test continuity of control circuit from valve connector back to PCM

5

Step 5: Apply direct battery voltage to valve to verify mechanical operation and audible click

Estimated Repair Cost

$150 - $600
