What does this fault code mean?
The sensor control module has registered a fault in its own software, which blocks the stability function for as long as the fault is present.
Possible causes
- Fault inside the sensor control module's software
What you can do
- 1Read and note the code, clear it and road test to see whether it returns
- 2Turn the steering wheel fully to the right, then fully to the left, set it straight ahead and read the code again
- 3With diagnostic equipment, read the counters for the fault status: many incorrect driving cycles point to a recurring fault, few to a temporary one
- 4If the code returns, have a workshop replace the steering wheel module (SWM)
- 5The stability function stays blocked while the fault is present, so have a workshop repair it promptly
