What does this fault code mean?
The driver door module supplies the turn indicator in the driver-side outer mirror. The fault is stored when the current on the output is too high, because the supply wire has contact with ground, or because of moisture and oxidation in the connections. The supply to the indicator in the mirror is then switched off.
