CX-50 TSB for PCM code P061B

BlueRidge16

- 2023 CX-50, and time to enjoy it!
Posting an FYI in the event anyone else gets a PCM (Powertrain Control Module) error on start-up. I had this happen on a cold start; a lack of power occurred briefly, but disappeared after shutoff / restart. It was drivable (normal performance) and I got home fine, where a code scan showed P061B. Researching online you'll find a number of different possible causes and nothing obvious. Turns out there's a TSB 01-015/22, issued 11/22/2022 which applies specifically to CX-50 produced before 09/27/2022. The code disappeared after 3 starts (which was actually the start to take it to the dealer - go figure).

They were still able to read it fortunately, and applied the software flash that fixes this PCM error. Very quick and easy - I wish more service visits were like this! Didn't see any other threads on this. Hope it helps if you encounter it. Here's the link. TSB 01-015/22
