| SSM 49828 | 2021-06-01. Service bulletin. Some 2018-2020 EcoSport vehicles equipped with a 2.0L engine may exhibit an illuminated MIL and diagnostic trouble code (DTC) P06A7 in the powertrain control module (PCM). This may be caused by a damaged circuit on the 12A581 harness. Inspect the 12A581 harness for possible damage near the right/front strut tower (behind the degas bottle) and a few inches back from connectors C1699 and C1698. If harness damage is not present, continue with normal diagnostics found within the Powertrain Control and Emissions Diagnosis (PC/ED) Manual. |
