Can I keep driving

Safe to drive. Below — how much time you have and what happens if you keep going.

What happens if you keep driving

Time you have: Enough to reach the yard

The modules have stopped hearing each other on the bus. Some dash readings are now made up and some functions are simply off.

You can physically drive, but do not trust the instruments, and the other codes in the list may well be false: fix the bus first, then look at the rest.

What to check on the spot

Check connectors and the harness: a broken CAN twisted pair takes out communication for every ECU at once.

Which codes follow

These normally light up after this code:

They are not fixed separately — they go out together with this one. The list is deliberately short: only the links the reference is sure about.

Nearby: CAN bus
