P0aa6 with no subcode after head gasket replacement

How long has the car been off the road not running while you did the head gasket job another week so how long really 9 10 12 days etc? Right after I change the engine in my car instead of doing the head gasket and all that or after I attempted to head gasket and found the skirt broke and the piston rolled over and ruined the motor. I had a bunch of these problems and turned out to be corrosion on all of my bus bars and the original 2013 battery

 

It might be worthwhile to consider getting a scan tool of your own that is able to read all of your car's codes and subcodes. It is a huge hassle to have to rely on other shops or dealers even just to find out what your car is telling you is wrong.

A lot of people find a way to run Techstream. There seem to be a bunch of other good options, too, these days. I don't know of a thread comparing them that is specific to Gen 3, but there is this thread for Gen 2 that might be a decent place to start:

Did you remove the ac compressor cable? It is high voltage.

 

If you haven't found already, here's a second gen thread on that code:

During my mess with replacing the engine in the 13 when I initially put the engine back in and hung the compressor back on the new engine which was still plugged up I kept getting an AC error code something to do with the power the orange cable part of it but there was nothing wrong with the cable it was all plugged up I unplugged the air conditioner for about a month got the car running everything like it's supposed to and then one day while I was out driving I just randomly in a parking lot at Sheetz I think plugged back up the air conditioning made the old lady turn the car back on immediately put on the air and it all started to work mind you this system was not discharged to replace the engine The compressor was removed and hung in the engine bay and then when I reconnected everything I had all kinds of power errors high voltage power errors and the main one I eliminated by unplugging the compressor that thing was drain in the battery down as fast as it was plugged up if I turned it on it went from a full battery to zero and 40 seconds minute 90 maybe I don't know but I didn't fix anything I just left it unplugged for a couple weeks and then when it got hot enough and I just didn't want to fool with it anymore I plugged it up and it started working the orange power cable to the compressor.

 

We have a bunch of threads on P0AA6 around; the weird thing about that one is how little useful information about P0AA6 is in it. There's some, but it got all sidetracked about lug torque and high connection resistance, which isn't what P0AA6 is about, and then a later poster tagged on with the same sidetrack. Most of the other P0AA6 threads are more helpful than that.

So, most of our threads about P0AA6 are in the Gen 2 forum, and they show this handy diagram for where the isolation fault is in the high-voltage system, according to which P0AA6 INF code you have (611, 612, 613, or 614).



You can use pretty much the same picture for Gen 3, but you have to remember one thing that changed between Gen 2 and Gen 3. The A/C Inverter is part of the inverter assembly in Gen 2, but it's part of the A/C compressor itself in Gen 3. That means in Gen 3, the orange cable from inverter assembly to compressor is part of the 614 area (in Gen 2, it falls under 611). In Gen 3, the only parts that can give code 611 are inside the compressor itself.

 

Poster likely meant vertical. I concur; it’s like a rain gauge, if you do something like pressure wash.
