P25E9

Supercharger Disconnect Clutch Stuck Open

Moderate severity

What it means

The clutch that engages the mechanical supercharger to the engine drive will not close. The supercharger stays disengaged so boost from this stage is unavailable, which limits torque and may also affect cooling pump drives shared with the same belt.

Is it safe to drive?

Use caution

The vehicle is usually drivable for short distances, but the problem can worsen or affect emissions. Diagnose and repair as soon as practical.

Most likely causes

  • Open electromagnetic clutch coil

  • Worn friction surfaces leave the air gap too large to attract

    medium

    A plausible cause — test and verify before replacing parts.

  • Corroded armature plate stuck open

    low

    Less common, but worth ruling out after the more likely causes.
