Ford documents P2610:61 (signal calculation failure) for its 2024-2025 gasoline-engine OBD monitor strategy as ecm/pcm engine off timer performance signal calculation failure. This three-byte interpretation is application-specific and identifies the detected monitor condition rather than a confirmed failed component.
Ford documents P2610:62 (signal compare failure) for its 2024-2025 gasoline-engine OBD monitor strategy as ecm/pcm engine off timer performance signal compare failure. This three-byte interpretation is application-specific and identifies the detected monitor condition rather than a confirmed failed component.
Powertrain: engine, transmission and driveline systems.
Generic SAE-standard code: same meaning on every make.
Specific fault index within the subsystem.
Diagnostic Trouble Code (2 variants). The control module judged the Internal Engine Off Timer behaviour implausible for the current operating conditions.
P2610 exists both as a generic OBD-II code (same meaning on every make) and with 1 manufacturer-specific interpretation(s): Ford. Always read it in the context of your vehicle.
If the fault logic lives in the ECU calibration, yes: our DTC Removal file service disables the specific fault entry. Checksum correction is not included: it is a separate, optional service. Not sure whether your case qualifies? Request a free assessment and our engineers will check your ECU file.
