U059B: Invalid Data Received From Hybrid/EV Battery Pack Sensor Module

A receiving module detected implausible data from the high-voltage battery pack sensor module. Cell-voltage and temperature values fail plausibility checks and are rejected; SoC and SoH calculations switch to a default model.

High severity. Can I keep driving?If the car still runs, drive as little as possible and go to a specialized repair shop. Do not touch the orange cables: they carry high voltage.

Symptoms

  • Multiple warning lights may illuminate
  • Affected modules may go into limp mode or shut down
  • Specific functions inoperative depending on module
  • Diagnostic tools may show communication faults

Most likely causes

  • Module internal fault or sensor input drift
  • Software version mismatch after replacement
  • Gateway module routing CAN messages incorrectly

What to check, in order

Start with the simplest. You can tick off each step.

Good to know

  • Repair difficulty: hard
  • It can trigger limp mode.

What each character of U059B means

  • U: Communication network
  • 0: Generic code: same on every make
  • 5: Subsystem depends on the code range
  • 9B: Specific fault in that system

Frequently asked questions

Can I keep driving with code U059B?
