DTC P0217: Engine Coolant Over-Temperature Condition

P0217 - ENGINE COOLANT OVER-TEMPERATURE CONDITION

Description:  Indicates an engine overheat condition was detected by the engine temperature sensor (CHT or ECT depending how the vehicle is equipped). This condition causes the boost from the supercharger to be bypassed to avoid potential engine damage.
Possible Causes: 
  • Engine cooling system concerns
  • Low engine coolant level
  • Base engine concerns
Diagnostic Aids:  Monitor the engine temperature PID (CHT or ECT) for an overheat condition. Typical engine temperature should be close to cooling system thermostat specification.
