What does this fault code mean?
The steering wheel module (SWM) has registered that the RTI Up button stayed active for too long. RTI settings can then change without any RTI button being pressed, and RTI buttons in the wheel stop working.
Possible causes

What you can do
- 1Check that the RTI Up button does not stick or stay in the pressed position
- 2If you have a diagnostic tool: read the RTI Up button in live data and check that it shows inactive when not pressed
- 3Read and note the code, clear it and road test to see whether it returns
- 4If the code returns, have a workshop check the button and the steering wheel module (SWM)
Symptoms you may notice2
- The RTI settings change without the RTI buttons being pressed
- RTI buttons in the wheel stop working
