What it means

P0EB8 means A/C Compressor Motor Phase W Current Sensor Circuit High.

Where it lives

For P0EB8, the sensor sits on the circuit this code reports. The description of P0EB8 reports a fault at the sensor.

Check these first

  • A short to voltage on the phase W current sensor signal wire
  • A failed phase W current sensor reading high
  • A compressor motor phase W drawing excess current
  • Corrosion at the phase W sensor connector

What to do next

  1. Read A/C compressor motor phase W current on a scan tool
  2. Test the phase W signal wire for a short to voltage
  3. Measure phase W current with a clamp meter
  4. Check the phase W connector for corrosion
  5. Replace the phase W current sensor if the circuit tests good
