P0C6C Generator Position Sensor Circuit B Circuit High
The generator position sensor channel B reports a circuit high fault. Wiring faults of this kind typically come from chafing, water ingress at connector seals, or pin push-back — a wiggle test on the harness while the code is active often confirms the location.
Is it safe to drive with P0C6C?
The car may go into limp mode (reduced power). Get it diagnosed before a long trip.
